Additional information

Brand

Random primers

Random Primers are 6-mer and 9-mer deoxyribonucleotide mixtures composed of a random sequence (up to 46 or 49 different sequences, respectively) and a phosphorylated 5′-end. Both the pd(N)6 Random Primer and the pd(N)9 Random Primer contain approximately 150 µg (5 OD) and are suitable for cDNA synthesis and hybridization applications.

Applications

  • Single-tube cDNA synthesis
  • Hybridization experiments using labeled probe (120 pmol primer/µg DNA recommended)
  • First-strand cDNA synthesis during RT-PCR

Storage

–20°C

Notes

Dissolve pd(N)9 in 1 ml of RNase-Free dH2O (final conc. 50 µM) prior to use in RT-PCR experiments.
