Applied Biosystems™ GeneScan™ 1200 LIZ™ dye Size Standard, 800 reactions

High-Density, Fifth-Dye Size Standard for Accurate Fragment Analysis up to 1200 Bases

The GeneScan™ 1200 LIZ™ Size Standard is a LIZ™ dye-labeled DNA ladder designed to provide precise and reproducible fragment sizing in capillary electrophoresis-based fragment analysis. With 68 single-stranded DNA fragments ranging from 20 to 1200 nucleotides, this fifth-dye size standard allows for more multiplexing flexibility by freeing up the four primary detection channels (FAM™, VIC™, NED™, PET™) for sample labeling.

This standard is optimized for high-resolution sizing in applications such as microsatellite genotyping, BAC fingerprinting, and fragment length polymorphism (FLP) analysis, and is compatible with all major Applied Biosystems™ genetic analyzers.

Key Features & Benefits

• Wide Sizing Range (20–1200 bases)
  Contains 68 labeled fragments offering high-resolution coverage across a broad range for advanced fragment analysis needs.
• Fifth-Dye Flexibility (LIZ™)
  LIZ™-labeled fragments allow simultaneous multiplexing of FAM™, VIC™, NED™, and PET™-labeled samples without interference.
• High Reproducibility
  Delivers consistent peak resolution under denaturing conditions, providing robust sizing standards across multiple runs.
• Large Reaction Capacity
  Each kit contains enough standard for 800 reactions, supporting high-throughput needs in core facilities and high-volume labs.
• Instrument Compatibility
  Validated for use with a range of Applied Biosystems™ platforms, including the 3500/3500xL, 3730/3730xl, SeqStudio, and SeqStudio Flex Series.

Applications

• Microsatellite analysis (STR genotyping)
• BAC and clone fingerprinting
• Fragment length polymorphism (FLP) detection
• High-throughput sequencing fragment validation
• Quality control in PCR and capillary electrophoresis
