    How to Prepare and Load a Pulsed Field Gel Marker
Lambda PFG Ladder consists of one GelSyringe™ dispenser, sufficient for 50 gel lanes. Successively larger concatemers of lambda DNA (cI857 ind 1 Sam7) are embedded in 1% LMP agarose. This product is designed to be used as size markers for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFG). Size range: 48.5–1,018 kb.

Notes
  • The photograph represents the pulsed field gel separation of Lambda Ladders using a CHEF apparatus. The 1% agarose gel was run at 4.5 volts/cm using ramped pulse times from 5 to 120 seconds for 48 hours at 15°C in 0.5X TBE (50 mM Tris-HCl, 50 mM boric acid, 1 mM EDTA) made with Milli-Q™ water allowing resolution of 15 to 21 Lambda Ladder bands.
  • Recommended plug sizes are from 5-10 µl. A 10 µl plug (one small graduation on the GelSyringe volume scale) contains approximately 0.5 µg of DNA. Each GelSyringe yields 50+ plugs.
  • Extrude agarose from GelSyringe carefully and slice plugs from the end with a sharp blade. One plug is sufficient for one lane of a gel. Place the plug at the front of the well and seal with molten agarose just above gelling temperature (~42–45°C). Allow no bubbles to form.
  • Melting plugs will cause denaturation of concatemers.
  • Never attach the agarose plugs to the gel comb before the gel is poured. Heat from the solidifying gel will cause the Lambda concatemers to denature.
