Key features
Industry
Cloning, culture media for molecular biology, PCR and electrophoresis, proteomics.
Principles and uses
Some important characteristics are:
- Extraordinary mechanical resistance for more reliable and easier handling.
- Possibility of varying pore size in accordance with particle size by modifying the gel concentration.
- Easy preparation of the gel by simple dilution in aqueous buffers either by standard boiling or microwaving.
- Greater thermal stability due to high hysteresis (difference between gelling and melting temperatures).
- Excellent transparency of the gel and high visibility.
- Exceptionally low absorption of staining agents.
- Absence of toxicity (polyacrylamide is neurotoxic).
GQT Agarose is similar to D-1 LE, a standard gelling/melting temperature agarose with high gel strength.
This agarose is GQT (Genetic Quality Tested) which ensures that preparative electrophoresis can be performed and DNA recovered without damaging its properties and structure. D-1 LE GQT gels can be used in Molecular Biology techniques.
