General description

Sigma′s DirectLoad™ 50 bp DNA Step Ladder contains 17 blunt-ended fragments consisting of 50 bp repeats from 50 to 500 bp, 100 bp repeats from 600 to 900 bp, and 1 kb repeats from 1 to 3 kb. Ten ul of the ladder can be loaded directly in a single lane on an agarose or polyacrylamide gel.

Application

DirectLoad™ 50 bp DNA Step Ladder has been used for cell lysis and genomic cleavage detection assay.
Suitable for size determination of PCR-generated DNA fragments with either agarose or polyacrylamide gels.

Features and Benefits

  • Ready-to-load
  • Easy-to-use
  • Popular band sizes

Components

Sigma′s DirectLoad™ 50 bp DNA Step Ladder is provided in a gel-loading solution of 5% glycerol, 4.2 mM EDTA, 0.083% orange G and 0.0125% xylene cyanol.

Other Notes

For optimal resolution, the recommended agarose gel concentration is 2.0%.

Articles

Markers and Ladders for Gel Electrophoresis

We offers a variety of markers that aid size determination of samples separated by agarose and/or polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. These products include markers for DNA, PCR fragments and RNA and can be concurrently run with the samples. All the markers stain well with common nucleic acid stains.

Protocols

End-Point PCR: Antibody-Mediated Hot Start PCR Protocol with Enhanced Specificity and Yield

Protocol using antibody mediated hot start polymerase. Method has short activation period (<1min), and results in higher yields and more specificity over standard PCR methods.

Antibody-Enzyme Mediated Hot Start PCR Protocol

When using hot start Taq DNA polymerase, the enzyme remains inactive until heated. Hot Start DNA polymerase control is achieved by chemical or antibody modification of the enzyme.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
