Quick-load Purple 50 bp DNA Ladder is a pre-mixed, ready-to-load molecular weight marker containing one tracking dye. Tracking dye does not leave a shadow under UV light.

The Quick-Load Purple 50 bp DNA Ladder consists of a proprietary plasmids, which are digested to completion with appropriate restriction enzymes to yield 17 bands suitable for use as molecular weight standards for agarose gel electrophoresis. This digested DNA includes fragments ranging from 50 to 1,350 base pairs. The 200 and 500 bp bands have increased intensity to serve as reference points.

  • Recommended gel percentage range: 2-3.5%
  • Optimum separation on 3%

pH 8 @ 25°C



Notes
  • Preparation of DNA: The double-stranded DNA is digested to completion with appropriate restriction enzymes, phenol extracted and equilibrated in storage buffer.
  • We recommend loading 5–10 μl (0.5–1 μg) of Quick-Load Purple 50 bp DNA Ladder per gel lane. In general, it is recommended to load 1 µl per mm of gel lane.
  • The Quick-Load Purple 50 bp DNA Ladder is not intended for precise quantification of DNA mass but can be used for approximating the mass of DNA in comparably intense samples of similar size.
  • Quick-Load Purple 50 bp DNA Ladder is stable for at least 6 months at 25°C. For long term storage, store at 4°C or -20°C. If stored at -20°C, mix well after thawing. If not well mixed, the load may float out of the wells.
