    This is fantastic!! In 10 minutes, you've managed to explain something that my professor hasn't been able to do in an entire semester. Thank you.

    "...remember to balance the centrifuge!" #1 message from this video! Great job everyone! I love the triumphant music and narration at the end - the plasmid DNA is isolated!

    Amazing! I usually spend at least 72 hours of research to understand the purpose of every step explained here because of my failing professors and TAs.

    What an exquisite way to explain the process of plasmid DNA extraction from a bacteria, the best I have seen so far.

    Sorry but I didn't understand this: For example, potassium acetate lowers the pH. Why does this only renaturate the plasmid DNA while the chromosomal DNA falls off?
