Volume: 20 mL
- 100% glycerol, 12 mL
- Bromophenol blue, 250 mg
- Xylene cyanol, 250 mg
Start with 18 mL dH2O. Add in glycerol 6 mL at a time and mix by pipetting up and down several times (it is very viscous). Add dyes.
Chromatin Prep Buffer A
Formula: [10 mM HEPES (pH 7.9); 10 mM KCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2; 0.34 M sucrose; 10% glycerol; 1 mM dithiothreitol; 1x protease inhibitor cocktail]
Volume: 100 mL
- 1 M HEPES pH 7.9, 1 mL
- 1 M KCl, 1 mL
- 1 M MgCl2, 150 μL
- Sucrose, 11.6 g
- 50% Glycerol, 20 mL
- 1 M Dithiotreitol (DTT), 100 μL
Bring up to total volume with dH2O. Store at 4°C. Add 100x protease inhibitor cocktail* (1:100) immediately before use.
DNA Ladder mix, Gene Ruler 1 kb Plus
