Gelatin for PCR - (Sep/26/2005 )
Hi!
I need gelatin for my PCR, but I could not find any for molecular biology. Where to buy and which one? Help me!

PCR buffers used to contain gelatin as a bulking agent to concentrate protein, but it has gradually been left out because it interferes with DNA sequencing gels. Gelatin may be used as a stabilizer at 0.001% (w/v). Fish gelatin is generally used to avoid potential mammalian DNA contaminants. Check your Sigma catalog.
