Research abstract
THERE IS A NEED FOR UNIFORMLY SPACED DUPLEX DNA SIZE STANDARDS (LADDERS) WITH DIFFERENT SPACINGS IN THE RANGE OF 40 KILOBASE-PAIRS (KBP) TO 10 MEGABASE-PAIRS (MBP) AND ABOVE FOR USE IN PULSED FIELD GEL ELECTROPHORESIS. COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE SIZE MARKER (E.G. LAMBDA-DNA LADDERS, YEAST CHROMOSOMAL MARKERS) ARE INADEQUATE. WE WILL DEVELOP A COMPLEMENTARY SET OF NOVEL DNA LADDERS WITH SPACINGS OF 40 KBP TO ABOUT 760 KBP AND RANGING FROM 40 KBP TO ABOUT 10 MBP (OR HIGHER) BY USING A PATENT-PENDING TECHNOLOGY.
