Why was alcohol used to precipitate
DNA from solution?
A. Alcohol is polar like DNA
B. DNA prefers the pH of alcohol
C. Alcohol is nonpolar
D. All of the above
F 400
Why was alcohol used to precipitate
DNA from solution?
C. Alcohol is nonpolar.
DNA by nature is a polar molecule. Alcohol is
non-polar. When DNA comes into contact with
alcohol, it will no longer mix and will precipitate
out of solution
