Alkaline extraction method. This is mainly used for DNA isolation and involves harvesting the targeted bacteria from a culture media and exposing it to alkaline solution. The next step here is to mix the alkaline extract with sodium dodecyl sulphate to remove the proteins. The benefit of using this method is that you can remove the DNA along with the proteins.

When DNA is in the presence of a molecule it will bind to the molecule and becomes fluorescent. The molecule adjusts the density of DNA to move towards the center of the tube upon centrifugation and the contaminants will move to other positions and will separate from the DNA.
