How do you quantify DNA and RNA?
Nucleic acid concentration and yield can be determined by comparing the intensity of sample bands to standards of known amounts. Because DNA and RNA absorb light at 260 nm, intensity can be measured using a UV transilluminator.
What is used to measure DNA?
Absorbance is measured by spectrophotometers and both protein and DNA concentrations can be measured by them. A UV-Vis spectrometer is the most common type found in standard laboratories.
