Description:
Successively larger concatemers of lambda DNA (cI857 ind 1 Sam7) embedded in 1% LMP agarose and supplied in a GelSyringe™ dispenser. Designed to be used as size markers for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFG). Size range: 50-1,000 kb.





1% agarose gel, 4.5 V/cm, 15°C for 48 hours. Switch times ramped from
5-120 seconds.

Notes


General notes:
  1. The photograph represents the pulsed field gel separation of Lambda Ladders using a CHEF apparatus. The 1% agarose gel was run at 4.5 volts/cm using ramped pulse times from 5 to 120 seconds for 48 hours at 15°C in 0.5X TBE (50 mM Tris-HCl, 50 mM boric acid, 1 mM EDTA) made with Milli-Q™ water allowing resolution of 20 Lambda Ladder bands.
Usage notes:
  1. Extrude agarose from GelSyringe carefully and slice plugs from the end with a sharp blade. One plug is sufficient for one lane of a gel. Place the plug at the front of the well and seal with molten agarose. Allow no bubbles to form.
  2. Recommended plug sizes are from 5-10 µl. A 10 µl plug (one small graduation on the GelSyringe volume scale) contains approximately 0.5 µg of DNA. Each GelSyringe yields 25+ plugs.
  3. Melting plugs will cause denaturation of concatemers.

FAQs


  1. There are several factors that lead to poor results for PFG markers. Here is a list of recommendations for ensuring a sharp high quality banding pattern.
