Millipore's Montage DNA Gel Extraction Kit Maximizes DNA Recovery from Agarose Gel Slices
10-minute spin yields fully functional DNA50 x modified TAE buffer available with the kit
Bedford, Massachusetts --- July 26, 2002 --- Millipore today announced the availability of a new member of the Montage family of high performance genomics sample prep kits. The Montage DNA Gel Extraction Kit consistently and reliably recovers fully functional DNA from agarose gel slices in a single 10-minute spin. DNA fragments that are 100 bp – 10,000 bp in size may be efficiently recovered with this fast and reproducible kit. The purified DNA is ready for sequencing, cloning, or labeling with no additional purification.
The Montage DNA Gel Extraction kit is available as a 50-pack containing 50 Montage DNA Gel Extraction (formerly UltrafreeÒ-DA) centrifugal devices and, for added convenience, a bottle of 500 mL of 50 x modified TAE buffer for gel casting and running. Each centrifugal device is ready to use, consisting of three pre-assembled components: a unique gel nebulizer, a sample filter cup, and a collection microcentrifuge tube. The specially formulated modified TAE buffer contains 1/10th the standard EDTA concentration to minimize interference with downstream applications.
Additional Montage genomics kits are available for PCR purification, BAC minipreps, plasmid minipreps, and sequencing reaction cleanup. For more information, please contact Millipore Tech Service at 1-800-MILLIPORE or visit www.millipore.com/montage.
