If DNA purity is poor but yield is high, what should be done?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Consider additional cleanup

A high DNA yield does not guarantee that the preparation is suitable for downstream work. Poor purity may indicate carryover of proteins, phenol, salts, carbohydrates, RNA, or other extraction reagents. Such contaminants can inhibit restriction digestion, PCR, ligation, sequencing, or accurate concentration measurement. The sample should first be assessed using appropriate quality checks and then subjected to an additional cleanup, re-purification, or other validated treatment selected for the contaminant. Option A is correct because it aims to retain the valuable DNA while removing inhibitory substances. Using it without checking risks unreliable results; automatic disposal wastes potentially recoverable material, and adding protein would worsen contamination.
