DNA (Catalog # 232640-D50)
Purpose
Ready-to-use, high-purity DNA prep. DNA aliquots are suitable for use in mammalian cell transfections and other molecular biology applications.
Delivery
- Amount 50 μg
- Concentration 1 μg/μL
- Pricing $495 USD
- Storage 4 ℃ (short-term) or -20 ℃ (long-term)

Quality Control
Every DNA prep is verified by next-generation sequencing, confirming plasmid identity, sequence integrity, and absence of DNA contaminants. Concentration is confirmed to be within ±2.5% of the stated concentration.
Our production process has been validated to consistently yield endotoxin levels below 1.0 EU/μg. Individual lots are not tested for endotoxin.
