It's the dna... and pectin. Mostly pectin. You're lucky if there is any dna in it at all.

Why doesn't dish soap destroy your skin if it can be used to burst open cells?

How did they first work out that you could see nucleic acids this way? How did they figure out a protocol that young adults in high school could use?

All these things will be on the test I will give you IN YOUR DREAMS.
