Abstract
The HEMA-BIO 1000 support, which is based on a copolymer of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and ethylene dimethacrylate, was used for separation of lambda DNA and its fragments and plasmid pBR322 DNA. The separation of fragments greater than 6.6 kbp was demonstrated according to the slalom chromatography mechanism on column for size-exclusion chromatography in the case of linear lambda DNA fragments. The influence of particle size of column packing, mobile phase rate, and KCl concentration in mobile phase is discussed. The purification of plasmid DNA pBR322 using size-exclusion chromatography was more rapid compared to gel electrophoresis. The presence of salts in the eluate is not disadvantageous. DNA can be recovered from the eluate by ethanol precipitation. Plasmid DNA pBR322 isolated in this way was suitable for different biological applications (cleavage with restrictases, electrotransformation into bacterial cells).
