Nucleic acid methods are the techniques used to study nucleic acids: DNA and RNA.
Purification[edit]
- DNA extraction
- Phenol–chloroform extraction
- Minicolumn purification
- RNA extraction
- Boom method
- Synchronous coefficient of drag alteration (SCODA) DNA purification
Quantification[edit]
- Abundance in weight: spectroscopic nucleic acid quantitation
- Absolute abundance in number: real-time polymerase chain reaction (quantitative PCR)
- High-throughput relative abundance: DNA microarray
- High-throughput absolute abundance: serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE)
- Size: gel electrophoresis
Synthesis[edit]
- De novo: oligonucleotide synthesis
- Amplification: polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
Kinetics[edit]
- Multi-parametric surface plasmon resonance[1][2]
- Dual-polarization interferometry[3]
- Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D)[4]
Gene function[edit]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
