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).

To identify risk factors for hospital mortality after postinfarction left ventricular aneurysmectomy (PILVA), 83 consecutive cases of PILVA were studied in a retrospective analysis. Hospital mortality was 14.4%. Most of the factors correlated with hospital mortality were associated with poor

At the time of fertilization, the paternal genome lacks the typical configuration and marks characteristic of pericentric heterochromatin. It is thus essential to understand the dynamics of this region during early development, its importance during that time period and how

HP1 enrichment at pericentric heterochromatin is considered important for centromere function. Although HP1 binding to H3K9me3 can explain its accumulation at pericentric heterochromatin, how it is initially targeted there remains unclear. Here, in mouse cells, we reveal the presence of

RNAi In Situ

In Situ Hybridization of Whole-Mount Mouse Embryos with RNA Probes: Hybridization, Washes, and Histochemistry. This is a protocol describing how to perform in situ hybridization on whole mouse embryos. Here we describe the hybridization procedure, and the localization of the DIG-labeled RNA using a conjugate of anti-DIG Fab antibody and calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase. Enzyme activity of the reporter is detected by a color reaction, resulting in the formation of a water-insoluble purple/blue precipitate. Manipulating the Mouse Embryo - Third Edition
