We describe a rapid and efficient procedure for the fractionation of mixtures of nucleic acids (NA) into double-stranded (ds) and single-stranded (ss) forms regardless of the nature of the nucleic acid (DNA or RNA). The procedure is based on the differential binding of ds- and ss-NA forms to silica particles in different lysis/binding buffers which have in common that they contain a high concentration of the chaotropic agent guanidinium thiocyanate (GuSCN).

Previously we reported on a procedure (protocol Y) for the routine purification of total NA from clinical specimens ( 1 ). The method . . . [Full Text of this Article]
