Water for Life Sciences Applications
Fisher Bioreagents waters are ideal for many fundamental procedures such as PCR, electrophoresis, DNA sequencing, and as buffers for enzymatic analyses. Their low metal content ensures minimal free ions, which lets you prepare optimized enzymatic reaction buffers by adjusting the concentration of the appropriate metal ion cofactor(s).

Ethanol for Nucleic Acid and Protein Purification
Molecular biology grade ethanol options now include 100% ethanol and 70%, 80%, and 96% solutions.
Ethanol products are tested to verify the absence of DNase, RNase, protease, and other hydrolytic enzymes that can degrade target biomolecules during isolation and purification. These solutions also work well in combination with commercial mini-prep kits or traditional extraction methods.
