Description

Agarose is a polymer isolated from red seaweed, from the species Gelidium and Gracilaria, and it is commonly used for the separation of nucleic acids. Type I agarose is often utilized in molecular biology to make agarose gels for electrophoresis, a technique used to separate and analyze DNA or RNA fragments or proteins based on their size. Agarose may also be used in plant cell culture to create hydrogels, which are gel-like materials that provide a three-dimensional matrix. This provides a supportive and biocompatible environment for plant cells, this mimics physiological conditions and conducts experiments in vivo. They are versatile for various applications in plant biology, such as studying cell growth, tissue culture, and analyzing plant responses to different stimuli.
