Agarose FAQ
Which running buffer should I use?
TAE or TBE. When resolution needs are modest either is fine; for large nucleic acids use a lower-percentage gel with TAE, and for small nucleic acids a higher-percentage gel with TBE.
Is it nuclease free?
Yes, it contains no DNase, RNase or protease.
What are the gel and melting points?
The gel sets at 34-38 °C and melts at 87-89 °C.
