A2501 EZ Pack Agarose Tablets, Pack of 200 Tablets (100g)

Benchmark Scientific A2501 EZ Pack™ Agarose Tablets, Pack of 200 Tablets (100g)

Researchers trust Benchmark’s Agarose LE to meet their electrophoreticneeds for a variety of applications. Now the same agarose is availablein a convenient, no mess tablet. Agarose LE is refined in an advanced process that excludes the use oforganic solvents. The result is a cleaner end product with significantlyreduced environmental impact. The agarose can be used for analyses ofnucleic acids from 150 bp to 25kbp, protein electrophoresis and variousblotting protocols. The low EEO of the agarose promotes increased electrophoretic mobility,yielding improved resolution and shorter run times. This also allowsmacromolecules and larger particles (subcellular fragments, viruses, etc.)to migrate more freely through the gel matrix. The consistently low EEOreduces band distortion (caused by counter flow) that can result fromthe presence of excessive sulfate-rich negative ions.The quick dissolving EZ Pack tablet contains 0.5g (500mg) ofAgarose LE, eliminating the hands-on time and inaccuraciesnormally associated with weighing. Use of the tablet is not onlyconvenient and cleaner, it also provides better consistency andreproducibility gel to gel. Gel preparation is simple – add the desirednumber of tablets to electrophoresis buffer, allow to sit for twominutes and then heat and pour as usual. The resulting gels arehighly transparent, have exceptional thermal stability (ensuring safeand easy handling) and exhibit exceptionally low absorption ofchemical staining agents.EZ Pack Agarose Tablets are supplied in convenient blister packsfor safe, clean dispensing.
