Agaroses - DNA electrophoresis
Genaxxon offers a wide range of agarose types that are specifically engineered to optimize results by fragment size, sample type and application. The Genaxxon selection chart > will get you started.
Agarose LE is the most trusted by our customers and the first choice for PCR analytics (DNA electrophoresis).
Standard high melting point agarose M3044 with standard resolution is used in routine DNA electrophoresis for separation of a wide range of DNA fragments from 50bp up to 20kbp. This agarose is available as powder (M3044 Agarose LE >) or as high-quality, multi-purpose tablets (M3054 >) available in blister packaging in 200 or 1,000 tablet quantities. They are compact, pre-weight and therefore easy-to-use.
Low melting/gelling temperature agarose is recommended for rapid DNA gel extraction with the agarose-digesting enzyme, Agarase (S5223), as well as for "in-gel" DNA treatment with enzymes or for bacterial transformation with nucleic acids directly after re-melting the gel.
High resolution agarose (normal melting or low melting) for high resolution elektrophoresis to differentiate DNA fragments with only 2 bp size difference: M3046 (Agarose Tiny (low melt, high resolution comparable to NuSieve®) >, or M3047 Agarose Tiny HT > (high gel strength, high resolution comparable to SeaKem®).
For the nontoxic staining of nucleic acids in agarose gels the highly sensitive fluorescent dye SafeGel red stain > is recommended.
