General description

SSC (Saline Sodium Citrate) Buffer 20x powder is a standard reagent in Southern and Northern hybridization procedures. It is used to control stringency of wash buffer for the washing steps after hybridization. SSC buffer powder should be reconstituted to the final indicated volume using molecular biology grade water.

Application

Suitable for use in washing buffer for Northern and Southern hybridization procedures.

Features and Benefits

  • Easy to reconstitute powder
  • Multi-purpose use in hybridizations

Components

SSC Buffer 20x contains 3M NaCl in 0.3M sodium citrate (pH 7.0).
