General description
Agarose is obtained from seaweed and contains repeated agarobiose units. During agarose gel formation, the polymers aggregate to form a network with varying pore sizes. This property is used in agarose gel electrophoresis to separate DNA.
Application
Agarose LE has been used for:
- analyzing fragments between 0.2 and 15 kb
- analysis of PCR products
- examination of restriction endonucleases
- digests of plasmid, cosmid, and λ phage DNA
- electrophoresis of RNA in, e.g., denaturing gels containing formaldehyde
- in combination with ethidium bromide in DNA electrophoresis to facilitate the separation and visualization of DNA fragments.
Important Note: Detection with nonradioactive probes e.g., digoxigenin-labeled nucleic acids, does not interfere with the use of Agarose LE.
Quality
Absence of DNase: none detected according to the current Quality Control procedures.
Absence of RNase: none detected according to the current Quality Control procedures.
Other Notes
For life science research only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
