Description

10X TAE Buffer is a sterile-filtered solution of 0.4 M Tris, 0.2 M Acetate Acid, and 0.01 M EDTA used to prepare 1X buffer for DNA agarose gel electrophoresis, both in the agarose gel itself and the running buffer. Linear, double-stranded DNA separates faster in a TAE buffer-based system compared to Tris-Borate-EDTA (TBE) buffer, but the latter has a higher buffering capacity and is thus more resistant to changes in pH. The use of TAE vs. TBE buffer depends on downstream applications. TAE is recommended for preparative electrophoresis in which the nucleic acid bands being separated are to be used in cloning, and other work requiring enzymatic applications.

Directions for Use

Dilute 10X TAE to a 1X solution using ddH2O. This product supplies enough 10X material to make 10 liters of 1X solution.

Storage Conditions

Supplied as a 10X solution, 1000mL.
Store at room temperature.
