A fast DNA extraction method for bacteria

A fast extraction method for bacteria DNA was developed. Unlike some other methods, the method does not require enzymes like lysozime and proteinase K. Carbonate silicate (carborundum) was used to break cell more efficiently. This method is fast, simple and more economic when compared to the previously report ones. The prepared DNA from bacteria has good quality and amount.
