Deionized Formamide
By MP BiomedicalsMolecular biology grade
Formamide is used in molecular biology as a denaturing agent for nucleic acids in gel electrophoresis or hybridization experiments. In this latter case the role of formamide is to decrease the temperature necessary for the reassociation of complementary nucleic acids.
