Analysis of exosome DNA by agarose gel separation and Agilent Bioanalyzer.

<p>A, Exosome DNA without RNase treatment. B, Exosome DNA with RNase treatment. High molecular weight band is removed by RNase treatment indicating that band represents RNA. Low molecular weight band is resistant to RNase treatment indicating that it is DNA. Majority of exosome DNA are in 200 bp size range. C, Overlaid Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer electropherograms. Exosome DNA was extracted from two individual donors. Exosome DNA from both donors were either treated with RNase or not treated. RNase treated and not treated DNA were analyzed by Agilent Bioanalyzer and RNase treated and not treated electropherograms were overlaid.
