General description
High quality double-stranded template DNA isolated from the thymus of male and female calves.
Application
Calf thymus DNA is exceptionally useful as a substrate for DNA polymerase assays, in the amplification of very long fragments and as a carrier DNA for precipitations.
Calf thymus DNA is exceptionally useful as a substrate for DNA polymerase assays, in the amplification of very long fragments and as a carrier DNA for precipitations. It was used as a standard for DNA quantification by fluorescent assay.[1] It was used as reference to determine the DNA content in cartilage tissue digest samples.[2][3]
Biochem/physiol Actions
42% GC; Tm = 87 °C.
% GC is the percentage of G/C base pairs. Tm is the temperature at the midpoint of the thermal denaturation profile.
% GC is the percentage of G/C base pairs. Tm is the temperature at the midpoint of the thermal denaturation profile.
Features and Benefits
• No nuclease activity detected after 16 h at 37 °C incubation
• High quality template DNA
• High quality template DNA
Preparation Note
Dissolve the DNA gently rocking overnight to a final concentration of 1mg/ml in molecular biology grade water.
Purified by anion exchange chromatography, dialyzed against a solution of 1 mM sodium chloride, 1 mM EDTA and 1 mM Trizma HCl, pH 7.5 and lyophilized at a concentration of ~2 A260 units per mL. ~20 A260 units per mg DNA.

how much is 1 unit (i.e. in ug or mg)?
1 answer-
One unit, based on the A260 value, is approximately 50 µg. The general conversion formula is 20 units per milligram. The 0.25 UN package size will contain approximately 12.5 µg, the 1 jUN package size will contain approximately 50 µg, and the 5UN package size will contain approximately 250 µg.
