INEXPENSIVE METHOD OF DNA GEL ELECTROPHORESIS
NAPASRI TALUPPETH, CHEEPTIP BENYAJATI* and NONGNUJ TANPHAICHITRSummary: Agar, which is much less expensive than agarose, was used in place of agarose in DNA gel electrophoresis. Our results clearly indicate that they are both equally good for separating DNA fragments of different sizes. In addition, we have devised an inexpensive "dark box" for taking photographs of fluorescing DNA bands on this gel. This equipment is much less expensive than the cost of setting up a dark room for this purpose.
