For your convenience, New England Biolabs offers a simple 4 buffer system. A color-coded 10X NEBuffer is supplied with every restriction endonuclease, ensuring 100% activity. Over 170 restriction enzymes exhibit 100% activity in NEBuffer 4, resulting in increased efficiency, flexibility and ease of use especially when performing double digests.
To help select the best conditions for double digests, this chart shows the optimal (supplied) NEBuffer and approximate activity in the four standard NEBuffers and NEBuffer EcoRI for each enzyme. If BSA is supplied with an enzyme, it is included in all NEBuffer activity reactions. In addition, the table shows recommended reaction temperature, heat inactivation temperature, recommended diluent buffer and whether the enzyme is Time-Saver qualified (i.e., cleaves substrate in 5 minutes under recommended conditions).
Note: The values listed in this table are approximate. They were obtained using each enzyme's specific unit assay substrate DNA.
