Abstract：
:In this communication we describe the sequential use of standard and low-melting agarose in a single gel slab for the electrophoresis of DNA. This method has the advantages of high resolution and reproducibility characteristic of standard agarose and the ease of manipulation of DNA for direct cloning, sequential digestion and isolation, characteristic of low-melting agarose.

BIOTECHNIQUES文献大全abstract：:Recombinant retroviral vectors usually encode the genes of interest in place of the viral structural genes, which must be provided in trans. These viruses are therefore defective for replication: infected cells cannot produce progeny virus. However, in some cases it may be desirable to generate virus from an infected ...
