Minipreps: Extract DNA from Bacteria

Extracting and purifying plasmid DNA from bacteria, or mini-prepping, is an essential lab technique for molecular biology. Mini-prepping enables fast and inexpensive DNA purification from live cells - a first step for any genetic engineering project and a power tool in any molecular biologist’s skillset. Beginners welcome!
