Dear B Ram,
try following following method. make a very small hole at the bottom
of a 0.5 ml PCR tube and cover it with some sterile glass wool. Put
your cut gel band in this tube and close it. Now put this tube into a
1.5 ml eppendorf tube. using an appropriate balancing tube spin at
12,000 rpm for 5 min. you should get 70-80% of your DNA in the
eppendorf tube which can be precipitated and resuspended in small
volume. Alternatively, put this tube into 1.5 ml tube containing ~100
microlitre TAE buffer. Also add same amount of this buffer in 0.5 ml
tube. Take two small pieces of platinum wires, dip one through space
between 0.5 ml and 1.5 ml tube so that it immerses in the buffer.
other piece of platinum wire should be purt in 0.5 ml tube buffer.
apply low current (~ 10V) with black electrode connected to wire in
0.5 ml tube and red electrode to other one immersed in 1.5 ml tube
buffer. This will make a small electrophoresis coloumn. after around
20 min, whole of DNA will move into buffer of 1.5 ml tube. Disacrd 0.5
ml tube along with its contents. precipitate DNA from buffer of 1.5 ml
tube using sod acetate and cold ethanol. All the best.

hello,

you can try to clone the PCR product you got from gel in any cloning vector like

pJet or pGem, since they require low amounts of PCR products, then you can
digest the vector and get the fragment ready for further cloning. it is two
steps more but may help you
good luck
FH

What is the yield as % of input? If you didn't have much to begin
with, nothing can help. ~50% on gel-extraction are ~ normal. If it is the
yield that is poor, try the same protocol with 2 kbp. If the result is good,
your kit is not appropriate for 6K. If the result is bad, either your
reagents are gone bad/improperly prepared or you are doing something
wrong. I've purified 14 kbp from gel with about 30% using Qiagen's
kit. Never a problem.
