Application
Suitable for use as running buffer for nucleic acid electrophoresis. Especially useful for dsDNA separations.

General description
TAE (Tris/Acetate/EDTA) Buffer is commonly used in nucleic acid electrophoresis. This solution has a lower buffering capacity than TBE buffer, but dsDNA runs faster with TAE buffer. This 50x concentrate can be easily diluted with molecular biology grade water to 1x before use.
