Notes:
A process has been developed giving over-all yields of about 50%: which could be increased to about 80% with higher material costs and processing time. The preferred method of recovering nucleotides from the cytoplasm has been thermal extraction by means of a heat exchanger followed by filtration, protein precipitation, and carbon adsorption. The concentrated eluate from the carbon is absorbed onto Dowex 1 ion-exchange resin, and groups of nucleotides are removed by pH-defined eluents and recovered by a second carbon adsorption. Finally, standard ion-exchange resolutions have been used to recover individual nucleotides. Other biochemicals in the extract have been investigated, and preliminary work has been done on the combination of nucleotide extraction with the recovery of nucleic acids from the residual cells.
