How to do a Strawberry DNA Extraction Lab at home!

This is a lab I missed while being sick at. I decided to perform the lab because I had already bought all the things I needed. I tweaked the instructions a little so you guys could try it at home if you wanted, enjoy!

@glittermaj Yeah this was a lab we had to do at school, but I was sick. I already bought all the stuff for it though so I decided to make a video and put it on youtube so I wouldn't have to do a make up lab or something :)

first comment! and why did u randomly decide to go away from video games to science?

[ShadowWolf810]

@fsd44 Well if you read the discription you'd know i was home sick today so i decided to do the lab that i missed at school today, at home. we had to bring in the supplies to school anyway so i had already bought them and i tried to make a deal with my teacher that if i made a video it would count as the project but that didn't work out too well :P So I just decided to put it on youtube anyways because i had already made the video.

I don't get why someone would dislike this. "No, he chose misshapen strawberries! He didn't crush his berries sufficiently!" :P

I may have to extract some DNA myself and see what it looks like at

10x 100x 1000x

I actually did this lab at school not too long ago, but we did it a bit differently... we put some kind of solution in the bag of strawberries before we mashed them and i forgot what else we did... but i still got dna out of it and put it under a microscope.. looked pretty cool lol. Btw, im the guy who submitted the aberration maps xD
