Specialty Agaroses for DNA and RNA Electrophoresis

It’s important to use the right tool for the job. Using multipurpose agarose or suboptimal agarose for a particular application can waste time, money and resources. Poor nucleic acid fragment separation, unstable gels and inability to recover nucleic acids are just a few of the unintended consequences of not using types of agarose specifically designed for an application.

Covering the widest range of nucleic acid electrophoresis applications, our specialty agarose types are optimized for the unique requirements of your molecular biology techniques. We provide specialty types of agarose designed for RNA and DNA electrophoresis, PFGE for large fragment analysis, PCR fragment analysis, DNA and RNA recovery and cloning, and Northern and Southern blotting. Our agarose offerings also include types of agarose appropriate for special applications, such as viral plaque assays, cell culture, cDNA library expansion and comet assays.
