Application
A low gelling temperature derivative with unique gelling properties. Gels form at <30 °C, remelt at temperatures in excess of 65 °C. Gels exhibit excellent clarity and are useful for the preparation of media containing heat-labile materials.
Typical working concentration: 6-12 g/L.
Typical working concentration: 6-12 g/L.
Analysis Note
The following is a list of properties associated with our agaroses:
Sulfate content - used as an indicator of purity, since sulfate is the major ionic group present.
Gel strength - the force that must be applied to a gel to cause it to fracture.
Gel point - the temperature at which an aqueous agarose solution forms a gel as it cools. Agarose solutions exhibit hysteresis in the liquid-to-gel transition - that is, their gel point is not the same as their melting temperature.
Electroendosmosis (EEO) - a movement of liquid through the gel. Anionic groups in an agarose gel are affixed to the matrix and cannot move, but dissociable counter cations can migrate toward the cathode in the matrix, giving rise to EEO. Since electrophoretic movement of biopolymers is usually toward the anode, EEO can disrupt separations because of internal convection.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi benefit their host plants by supplying phosphate obtained from the soil. Polyphosphate is thought to act as the key intermediate in this process, but little is currently understood about how polyphosphate is synthesized or translocated within

Doxycycline, a broad-spectrum antibiotic, has certain antiangiogenic properties and can inhibit matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs/gelatinases). The authors investigated the effects of doxycycline on choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and regulation of MMP-2 and -9 and pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF). Doxycycline was orally administered

The delivery of cell wall material and membrane to growing plant cell surfaces requires the spatial and temporal coordination of secretory vesicle trafficking. Given the small size of vesicles, their dynamics is difficult to quantify. To quantitatively analyze vesicle dynamics

Light is essential for photosynthesis, but the amounts of light that exceed an organism's assimilation capacity can result in oxidative stress and even cell death. Plants and microalgae have developed a photoprotective response mechanism, qE, that dissipates excess light energy

Fluorescence microscopy images are inevitably contaminated by background intensity contributions. Fluorescence from out-of-focus planes and scattered light are important sources of slowly varying, low spatial frequency background, whereas background varying from pixel to pixel (high frequency noise) is introduced by
