B1 Gel Sample:
A 1% SeaKem® Gold agarose gel (BMA Cat. No. 50150) in 1X TBE, pH 8.2 and 0.5ug/mL ethidium bromide, using an Owl Gel Casting Array with 14 tooth combs.Samples consisted of 1-10Kb DNA size marker (BMA No. 50471) in the odd wells and a 500bp DNA ladder (BMA Cat. No. 50323) in the even wells. Both sample at a concentration of appoximately 25ng/band adjusted for well volume. The gel was run for approximately 60 minutes at 7V/cm.
