Therefore, using them especially for diagnostic purposes and for high sensitivity viral quantification processes, must be avoided. Nucleic acid extraction is the starting point for all genetic research and molecular tests. Many widespread molecular genetic tests and experiments, can only be performed after the DNA or RNA of target organism is purified. DNA/RNA extraction in general includes; cell membrane and wall degradation, inactivation of nuclease activity, removal of proteins, concentration of nucleic acids and proper storage of the isolated DNA/RNA.
  • Extraction is composed of four steps named as; lysis (exposing of DNA by breaking down of the ceils and membrane bound structures, denaturation and removal of the proteins from DNA/RNA), binding (binding of DNA/RNA on a surface), washing (removal of undesired contaminants in the medium such as salt, protein, etc.) and elution (recovery of DNA/RNA from the bound surface).
