Agarose Standard is a polysaccharide obtained from agar that has been used for a variety of life science applications especially in gel electrophoresis. Gentaur Biotech offers a molecular biology grade agarose, which is specially purified for separating and recovering DNA fragments. It provides the sharpest resolution of fragments of 50–30,000 base pairs and has high gel strength ensuring no gel breaking during handling. Gentaur Biotech Agarose Standard is a standard melting temperature, multi-purpose agarose that is ideal for routine DNA/RNA separation analysis, DNA fingerprinting, PCR, or restriction digest analysis. Since the strict quality control is performed during agarose preparation, the sufficient separation and the purity of recovered DNA are guaranteed.
