MERmaid SPIN KIT UN1824-II 8
Product Description
MERmaid® SPIN Kit is designed for rapid purification of small MW single-stranded or double-stranded DNA (10 bp to 200 bp) from agarose or polyacrylamide gels, nucleotides, salts, proteins, or other undesirable components of a mixture. This kit combines the advantages of silica binding with a convenient spin column format, eliminating the need for expensive resins or toxic organic compounds such as phenol and chloroform.
Application Notes
The MERmaid SPIN Kit is designed for purifying small MW DNA away from gel material, nucleotides, salts, proteins, or other undesirable components of a mixture. Single-stranded or double-stranded DNA oligomers or PCR products of 10-200 nucleotides in length are readily purified from agarose and polyacrylamide gels or from solutions. Purified DNA can be used in enzymatic reactions, conventional or automated sequencing, cloning and microarray analysis.
