| Application: | Water, sterile filtered has been used: • for cloning and plasmid construction. • for restriction digestion of PCR amplicons in polysaccharide A (PSA) restriction method. • in RNA isolation. • fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). • to dilute the samples of CVF (cervicovaginal fluid) and menstrual extracts for testing specificity through reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) amplification of mRNA. • for DNA quantification using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). |
| General description: | Molecular biology grade water is sterile filtered and ready to use, free from DNase, RNase, phosphatase, and protease contamination. |
