Originally posted by nucacidhunter View PostLinear detection range of PicoGreen is four orders of magnitude in 1 ng/ml to 1000ng/ml DNA concentration. As far as one calibrates fluorometer at 0 and 1000 range there is no need to any other concentration in between or standard curve. It seems to be waste of money and time. With correct calibration one needs only to multiply the fluorescence value in dilution factor to calculate original concentration of DNA sample.

Originally posted by nucacidhunter View PostMass of genome in one human cell is 6.6 pg, so in a DNA solution of 10 ng/ul we would have equivalent of DNA from 1515 cells which would be 45,450,000 fragments of 100kb. Most standard extraction methods will result in fragments less than 100kb. So, I do not see how one can justify that 45.5 million fragments in 1ul will aggregate in a solution to give 10x variation in consecutive reads. I think just a gentle flick would be enough to have a homogenous solution (if sample was frozen) and vortexing definitely would damage large DNA fragments.
Edit: I should also mention that the variation seen before vortexing was at most about 2x. Variation after vortexing was ~1%.Last edited by kerplunk412; 03-05-2015, 04:52 PM.
