โฆ Synopsis
A simple technique is described whereby RNA molecules can be rapidly isolated in a high yield from preparative agarose gels. Slices from the preparative gel which contain the desired RNA species are made into an agarose plug. This provides for handling of the slices in such a way as to permit electrophoretic elution of RNA molecules into very small volumes. This technique is shown to be mild enough to permit, for the first time, the isolation of an undegraded preparation of 75 S RNA.

A new method is proposed for finding molecular weights from the boundary condition of the ultracentrifuge. The method is more rapid than the conventional Archibald method by a t least one order of magnitude and should be especially useful for giant molecules with small diffusion coefficients. It emp

A simple method for the collection of a large number of ova from pig ovaries is described. The method consists of disrupting the tissue in an ordinary meat grinder, then separating the oocytes by sieving the disrupted tissue through two pore sizes of stainless steel mesh.
