QA-Agarose™ Low Melting
By MP BiomedicalsQA-Agarose™ Low Melting
For preparative DNA and RNA electrophoresis
- In-gel manipulation, no gel purification necessary
- Finer sieving properties than standard melt agaroses
- High clarity
- Suitable for viral plaque assays
QA-Agarose™ Low Melting has finer sieving characteristics than standard melt agaroses and is recommended for the separation of DNA/RNA fragments greater than 500 bp. The low melting temperature (<65.5°C) permits nucleic acid recovery without denaturation or damage.
Once melted the low gelling temperature ensures that the agarose will remain in a liquid state at 37°C enabling manipulations such as enzyme digestion, ligation, DNA labeling, nick translation, random priming, PCR etc. in addition no prior purification of DNA is necessary.
