Articles

Markers for gel electrophoresis aid size determination of DNA, PCR fragments, and RNA, staining well with common nucleic acid stains.

Choose the appropriate markers and ladders for nucleic acid size determination of samples separated by electrophoresis. Determine size of DNA, RNA and PCR-generated fragments using agarose or polyacrylamide gels.

Protocols

JumpStart™ Taq DNA Polymerase is an antibody-inactivated, hot start enzyme.

Protocol using antibody mediated hot start polymerase. Method has short activation period (<1min), and results in higher yields and more specificity over standard PCR methods.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
