Your DNA prep is done and you’re for the next step in your experiment. But first, you need to check for the presence of DNA in your tube even if you can’t see it yet! There are many ways to do this and researchers select the method based on…

Molecular biology research often involves purification, for example, removing short primers, enzymes, and salts from PCR reactions. Conventional purification methods like filtration and centrifugation were not as effective as separation using…

Current molecular biology research relies largely on the purification and extraction of nucleic acids. Commonly used centrifuge- and column-based methods require specialized equipment, toxic reagents, lack scalability or can’t be used in a…

Magnetic beads are made up of very small (20 to 30 nm) iron oxide particles, such as particles of magnetite (Fe3O4). This gives the beads superparamagnetic properties. Superparamagnetic beads display magnetic…

Low extraction yield and degraded RNA has often frustratedeven the most experienced scientists.Obtaining high-quality RNA from sample types has vital to so many applications, from NGS (Next-generation sequencing), and PCR to cDNA…
