Loading buffer is optional. Samples can be loaded directly into the wells if no buffer is used, or you can dilute them with deionized water or TE buffer. If you want to use a loading buffer, please see the recipes below:
E-Gel agarose gels (including EX)
10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5
1 mM EDTA
0.005% bromophenol blue
0.005% xylene cyanol FF
E-Gel CloneWell II and E-Gel SizeSelect II agarose gels
10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5
1 mM EDTA
Alternatively, you can use 10X BlueJuice Gel Loading Buffer or TrackIt Loading Buffer. Dilute this buffer 50- to 200-fold to obtain optimal results with E-Gel agarose gels.
