Tables, Checklists, and Warnings
How do I document reagents and troubleshooting clearly?
| Reagent | Final Concentration | Notes ||-----------------|--------------------|--------------------|| Proteinase K | 0.2 mg/mL | Store at -20°C || CTAB Buffer | 2% | Pre-warm before use|Troubleshooting Table
Section titled “Troubleshooting Table”| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution ||---------------|----------------------|---------------------------|| Low yield | Incomplete lysis | Extend incubation || Contamination | Poor phase separation| Repeat centrifugation |Tables improve clarity and scanning.
Warnings and Notes
Section titled “Warnings and Notes”> ⚠️ Critical: Do not vortex after adding chloroform.> 💡 Tip: Pre-warm the buffer to improve yield.Clear highlighting reduces errors.
