Precast agarose gels for Dna electrophoresis

Achieve precise DNA separation and purification effortlessly with bufferless precast agarose gels, designed to enhance efficiency in your molecular workflows while reducing preparation time and improving safety.

Runs DNA Electrophoresis and Enhances Cloning Efficiency

The E-Gel Precast Agarose Gels from Thermo Fisher Scientific offer a robust solution for DNA electrophoresis. These gels are specially designed to be bufferless with embedded electrodes, simplifying the workflow by eliminating gel preparation and additional buffers. Ideal for molecular biology and genomics applications, they support processes such as genotyping assays, DNA fragment size selection, and high-efficiency cloning. A diverse range of agarose percentages and well formats caters to both low and high-throughput operations, ensuring adaptability across various research and diagnostic settings.

Incorporating an ion-generating system and SYBR Safe DNA stain, these gels provide safer, rapid electrophoresis without chemical staining, detecting as little as 2–3 ng of DNA within 30 minutes. Suitable for integration with high-throughput systems, they enhance productivity in laboratories by accommodating up to 96 samples simultaneously. The E-Gel CloneWell II variant mitigates UV damage and improves cloning efficiency by allowing direct retrieval of migrated DNA bands. Customizable agarose percentages and staining options ensure compliance with diverse experimental needs and industry regulations.
