Precast agarose gels for Dna electrophoresis
In molecular biology labs, achieving accurate and efficient DNA separation is critical for analysis and experimentation. Traditional gel preparation methods can be time-consuming and hazardous, especially with the use of ethidium bromide.
Simplifying Dna electrophoresis
The E-Gel Precast Agarose Gels from Invitrogen by Thermo Fisher Scientific offer a bufferless agarose gel with electrodes embedded in the agarose matrix. These gels include an ion generating system, pH balancing system, and DNA stain within a transparent plastic cassette. With two ion exchange matrices that ensure a continuous flow of ions, they maintain the electric field required for electrophoresis. Suitable for various applications, these gels come with SYBR Safe DNA stain, a safer alternative to ethidium bromide, and are available in multiple well formats and agarose concentrations. They support both low and high throughput DNA electrophoresis, making them ideal for PCR product analysis, cloning, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) library preparations.
Benefits
- Ready-to-use: no gel preparation needed
- Safer analysis with SYBR Safe DNA stain
- High sensitivity: detect 2–3 ng of DNA quickly
