what is Agarose CAS 9012-36-6?

Agarose CAS 9012-36-6 is a linear polymer, and its basic structure is a long chain alternately connected by 1,3 linked β-D- galactose and 1,4 linked 3,6- lactone -L- galactose [1][2]. Agar pectin is a heterogeneous mixture composed of many smaller molecules. Agarose is generally heated to above 90℃ to dissolve in water, and when the temperature drops to 35-40℃, it forms a good semisolid gel, which is the main feature and basis of its multiple uses. The gel properties of agarose are usually expressed by gel strength. The higher the strength, the better the gel performance.

Application

Agarose is frequently used in molecular biology for the separation of large molecules, especially DNA, by electrophoresis. Slabs of agarose gels (usually 0.7 – 2%) for electrophoresis are readily prepared by pouring the warm, liquid solution into a mold. A wide range of different agaroses, of varying molecular weights and properties are commercially available for this purpose. Used in high resolution protein electrophoresis, immunoelectrophoresis, electro immunoassays such as rocket assays, counter current electrophoresis.
