Agarose B, Low EEO Biotech Grade

Description

Agarose B is optimized for pulsed-field electrophoresis. This product has a high gel strength, which facilitate the preparation of low concentration gels for resolving LARGE (>20 kb) fragments.

Agarose B Low EEO is a high-performance biotechnology-grade agarose designed for applications requiring superior resolution of large DNA molecules. Its combination of high gel strength and controlled electroendosmosis (EEO) enables the preparation of stable low-concentration gels while maintaining excellent separation performance for high-molecular-weight nucleic acids.

The product is particularly suitable for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), genomic DNA analysis, restriction fragment separation, and other molecular biology workflows involving large DNA fragments. The low EEO characteristics help minimize electroosmotic effects, improving band sharpness and migration consistency during electrophoresis. Agarose B also features high gel integrity, making gels easier to handle during staining, imaging, excision, and downstream recovery procedures.

Specification

Features

• Optimized for Pulsed-Field Electrophoresis

  Agarose B is optimized for pulsed-field electrophoresis.

• Excellent Resolution of Large DNA Fragments

  This product has a high gel strength, which facilitate the preparation of low concentration gels for resolving LARGE (>20 kb) fragments.

• Low Electroendosmosis (Low EEO)

  EEO value of 0.09–0.13 helps reduce electroosmotic interference and supports improved migration consistency during electrophoretic separation.

• High Gel Strength

  Gel strength ≥1,200 g/cm² provides excellent gel stability and handling characteristics, particularly in low-percentage gel applications.

• RNase and DNase Free

  RNase and DNase are not detected, supporting sensitive nucleic acid analysis workflows.

• Thermo-Reversible Gel Formation

  Forms strong gels upon cooling and melts when heated, allowing convenient gel preparation and sample processing.

• Suitable for Preparative and Analytical Workflows

  Supports both analytical electrophoresis and preparative nucleic acid separation applications involving large DNA molecules.
