Agarose D2 standard, high gelling temperature (100 g)

D-2 Agarose has a higher gelling temperature than D-1 Agarose and Low EEO*. This gives higher thermal stability to the gels.

Features
Extraordinary mechanical resistance for more reliable and easier handling.
Possibility of varying pore size in accordance with particle size by modifying the gel concentration.
Easy preparation of the gel by simple dissolution in aqueous buffers either by standard boiling or microwaving.
Greater thermal stability due to high hysteresis (difference between gelling and melting temperatures).
Excellent transparency of the gels.
Excellent elasticity and flexibility of the gels.
Great capacity for derivatization and cross-linking, which allows coupling of enzymes, antigens and other substances to the gel structure.
Exceptionally low absorption of staining agents.
Absence of toxicity (the alternative is polyacrylamide which can be toxic).

Applications
Nucleic acid electrophoresis.
Protein electrophoresis (immunoelectrophoresis and counterelectrophoresis
Preparation of agarose beads.
