Product Overview
Acrylamide 99% Molecular Biology grade is a high-purity, non-ionic monomer designed for precise applications in gel electrophoresis and biomolecular research. Its exceptional purity ensures minimal interference in protein and nucleic acid separation, making it indispensable for high-resolution experiments. The powder form allows for easy handling and customizable gel concentrations, catering to diverse experimental needs. As a water-soluble compound, it forms stable polyacrylamide gels when polymerized, providing a consistent matrix for accurate molecular analysis. This grade is rigorously tested to meet molecular biology standards, ensuring reproducibility and reliability in critical research workflows. Its low conductivity and chemical stability further enhance its suitability for sensitive biochemical assays. Whether used in SDS-PAGE or DNA sequencing, this acrylamide delivers superior performance, minimizing artifacts and background noise. The product is packaged to maintain stability and prevent contamination, guaranteeing long-term storage without degradation.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of acrylamide 99% molecular biology grade?
When stored in a cool, dry place away from light, acrylamide 99% molecular biology grade typically has a shelf life of 2-3 years from the date of manufacture.
2. Is this acrylamide compatible with common gel electrophoresis buffers?
Yes, this acrylamide is fully compatible with standard buffers like Tris-borate-EDTA (TBE) and Tris-acetate-EDTA (TAE) used in gel electrophoresis.
3. Are there safer alternatives to acrylamide for gel electrophoresis?
Bis-acrylamide is often used as a cross-linker with acrylamide, but no direct replacement offers the same resolution for protein/DNA separation.
4. How should acrylamide be stored to maintain its purity?
Store acrylamide in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, protected from moisture and direct sunlight to preserve its molecular integrity.
5. Can this acrylamide be used for non-denaturing gel applications?
Yes, this high-purity acrylamide is suitable for both denaturing and non-denaturing gel electrophoresis techniques.
