Thermo Scientific™ MassRuler DNA Ladders, ready-to-use



Description
Thermo Scientific MassRuler DNA Ladders are designed for accurate quantification and sizing of DNA fragments by agarose gel electrophoresis. Individuals DNA fragments are chromatography-purified and calibrated against a standard that guarantees precise quantity of each band.
Highlights
- Accurate DNA sizing and quantification – DNA ladder fragments are quantified spectrophotometrically
- Sharp bands, easy-to-remember fragment sizes and quantities
- Ready-to-use—premixed with 6X MassRuler DNA Loading Dye for direct loading
- Stable at room temperature for up to 24 months
Sustainability features
Ready-to-use MassRuler DNA ladders can be stored at room temperature for up to 24 months. The ladder is shipped at ambient temperature, using optimized right-sized packaging and 100% recyclable packaging reducing waste.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
The GelRed or GelGreen nucleic acid dyes can be used with our DNA Ladders. Nucleic acid binding dyes can affect DNA migration during electrophoresis, therefore we highly recommend post-staining of gels. Please follow the gel staining protocol provided by the manufacturer of nucleic acid gel dyes.
For fast sizing and quantification of double-stranded DNA, we recommend using FastRuler DNA Ladders. These ladders are easily resolved in a short separation distance after an 8-14 min run.
Each of Thermo Scientific DNA and RNA ladders has a recommended voltage given in V/cm. Please refer to the gel picture in the product information sheet. V/cm stands for the amount of voltage recommended per cm of the distance between the two electrodes of the gel box (not gel length).
Thermo Scientific DNA and RNA ladders have 5′-phosphate and 3′-hydroxyl groups.
