Invitrogen™ E-Gel™ 1 Kb Plus DNA Ladder, for 0.8–1% E-Gel agarose gels, ready-to-use

The Invitrogen™ E-Gel™ 1 Kb Plus DNA Ladder is a ready-to-use molecular weight marker designed for precise sizing and approximate quantification of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the range of 100 bp to 15,000 bp. This DNA ladder consists of 18 individual chromatography-purified DNA fragments, with a reference band at 1,500 bp for easy orientation on gels. The ladder is pre-mixed with loading buffer, making it convenient for immediate use in E-Gel agarose gel electrophoresis.

The E-Gel 1 Kb Plus DNA Ladder is specifically formulated to provide sharp, clear bands with uniform intensity, ensuring high-resolution DNA fragment separation. Ideal for use with 0.8–1% E-Gel agarose gels, it is the preferred choice for accurate DNA sizing and quantification in various research, diagnostic, and educational applications.
