Analytical biochemistry, 148(2), 376-383 (1985-08-01)
A procedure for the simultaneous banding of cellular DNA, RNA, and protein by centrifugation in cesium trifluoroacetate (CsTFA) gradients is described. Starting with homogenates of Day 11 rat embryos, this procedure was used to separate total DNA, RNA, and protein.
K Andersson et al.
Plasmid, 13(1), 78-80 (1985-01-01)
Plasmids extracted from bacterial cells by alkaline extraction can easily be isolated from linear DNA by isopycnic centrifugation in CsTFA. This is a fast and simple method which circumvents the use of the intercalating dye, ethidium bromide, and consequently the
