plasmid extraction kit wash buffer solution - (Mar/08/2010 )

Hi
unfortunately I have lost my plasmid extraction kit solutions and now I have unused columns, I have the recipe for resuspension, lysis and neutralization solutions but I dont know the composition of wash buffer, does any body know how can I make it myself?
regards

The easiest way is trying the washing solution of other purification kit. I usually don't distinguish the one for the plasmid extraction kit and the one for the gel extraction kit, they are similar.

I would says these washbuffers are just 70% ethanol.
