Figure 1: Comparison of 1% Agarose for Molecular Biology with 1% Agarose of a competitor; 200 V; 50 min; 0.5 X TBE buffer. DNA bands in Enzyquest product exhibit sharper edges than Competitor A. In addition, no unspecific bands appeared in Agarose for Molecular Biology in contrast to that of Competitor A.

Q&A – Frequently Asked Questions

What size range of DNA and RNA fragments can this agarose separate?

The agarose can analyze DNA fragments in the dynamic range of 0.1 to >25 kb. Under denaturing conditions, it can also separate RNA in the same range. By utilizing pulse field electrophoresis, it may be able to analyze DNA and RNA fragments >30 kbp.

Can this agarose be used for cloning and transfer techniques?

Yes, this agarose is suitable for rapid routine separation of DNA and RNA fragments, as well as for PCR products, plasmid preparation, and for detection, cloning, and transfer techniques.

How does this agarose compare to competitor products?

Comparison tests show that DNA bands in this agarose exhibit sharper edges than competitor products. Additionally, no unspecific bands appeared in this agarose in contrast to competitor products, demonstrating superior quality.

Is this agarose tested for nuclease contamination?

Yes, this agarose is certified as DNase and RNase free. None of these contaminating activities are detected, ensuring the integrity of your nucleic acid samples.
