Product Overview
FlashGel® DNA Cassettes are essential components of the FlashGel® System for fast electrophoresis of DNA. FlashGel® DNA Cassettes are the ideal sample screening tool for checking PCR or restriction fragments quickly without having to plan your day around agarose gels or to verify your DNA sample integrity prior to downstream analysis. The FlashGel® System is the fastest way to separate DNA and the best way to watch DNA migration as it happens. This revolutionary new tool separates DNA in 2 - 7 minutes. Monitor gel runs right at the bench, without UV light. The highly sensitive system allows a 5-20X reduction in DNA levels - saving both time and money. FlashGel® Cassettes contain precast, prestained agarose gels and buffer - no need for gel preparation, buffer addition or gel staining.
