ToothPick-PCR

Rapid colony screening for plasmid DNA with PCR


ToothPick-PCR is an extension of ToothPick and allows for the
rapid release of plasmids from transformed bacteria for screening by
polymerase chain reaction (PCR). There is no requirement for growing
bacteria, performing minipreps or purifying the plasmid DNA.
Add your colony directly to the supplied ToothPick solution, heat
and then transfer 1l directly to a PCR reaction to screen for your
plasmid. Following PCR, add the supplied GLOW Loading Dye and
run on an agarose gel. No need to stain with ethidium bromide,
simply place gel on UV box and view.
Glow Dyes have been specifically formulated for nucleic acid
electrophoresis and contain an optimized concentration of buffer
agents, tracking dyes and ethidium bromide. These loading dyes
reduce exposure and many of the problems associated with ethidium
bromide use and disposal.

SDS: The detergent SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) is supplied in the
CleanAway Loading Dyes and these are recommended for use
with DNA that has a high level of DNA binding proteins. The SDS
eliminates DNA-protein interactions, which prevents poor DNA

Hybridization Buffers
EKONO

For cleaner backgrounds
EKONO is a high performance hybridization buffer system
providing researchers with unprecedented simplicity, reliability,
accuracy and cost saving for hybridization.
The protocol involves incubation of blots with denatured probes
in our EKONO hybridization buffer, followed by washing of the blot
to remove excess unhybridized probes. Easy-to-use EKONO provides
high resolution and sensitivity.
Suitable for Southern/Northern or Southwestern hybridization
analysis, hybridization with oligonucleotides or other types of probes,
and for hybridization screening of gene libraries.
