Microcon Centrifugal Filters
These filters work well for concentrating solutions and for purifying DNA and proteins. Different filters have different molecular weight cutoffs (all DNA/proteins below that cutoff will pass through the filter). Note that the cutoff values are rough estimates.
| Product | Color code | Molecular Weight cutoff (kDa) | Equivalent ssDNA cutoff (nt) | Equivalent dsDNA cutoff (bp) |
