GT1200Size Standard

GT1200 Size Standard has been developed to be used as an internal size standard with GTM5 v2 (5 dye system) during capillary electrophoresis. The use of this internal size standard provides ease of data analysis and precision in sizing DNA fragments. GT1200 can replace any other size standard. So, laboratories who uses kits with longer fragments on their CE systems and find commercially available size standards expensive, can easily switch to GT1200 since it has many more sizes, and the price is affordable. GT1200 also can be used as a size standard using other commercially available kits because of its price and precision. GT1200 Size Standard consists of 20 fragments in size range from 80bp to 1200bp where 15 fragments are spaced 80bp apart and 5 fragments with intermediate space. These fragments sizes used are: 80, 160, 240, 280, 320, 400, 440, 480, 560, 640, 680, 720, 800, 840, 880, 960, 1040, 1080, 1120 and 1200 base pairs. Premium Features •GT1200 Size Standard fragments generate an optimum sizing curve. •Used for various fragment analysis applications such as repeat expansion disorder analysis like Fragile X, Friedreich’s ataxia, etc. •Each fragment of the GT1200 is double-stranded DNA labeled with an orange, fluorescent dye which has its excitation in the range of 610-645 nm. •The size increases every 80 bases except for a few OD numbers in between to enable the software to place each size where it should be and start sizing from 80 bp or the first size in the range. •Capillary electrophoresis produces a single peak with the denatured condition. •Every Genetek kit comes with GT500, GTE600, GT600 or GT1200 included.
