Application
For organic extractions of nucleic acids. Forms a durable barrier between phases, facilitating decanting or pipetting into a fresh tube.
Features and Benefits
• Improve nucleic acid recovery 20-30%
• Reduce contamination from interphase
• Gel is inert; does not interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions
• Convenient for samples from 10 μl to 20 ml
Packaging
in 50 ml centrifuge tubes for 5-20 ml samples
The gel comes pre-dispensed in common sizes of centrifuge tubes. Just add your phenol or phenol/chloroform extraction mixture and spin. The gel migrates under centrifugal force, forming a barrier above the organic phase and interphase.
