What percentage of an agarose gel is most appropriate to analyze a DNA sample that contains 2,500 base pairs?
0.5%, 1.2%, or 2.0%
Solution
For linear DNA it is recomended that 0.5% agarose gel for 1000 to 30,000 base pairs liner DNA. and 1.2% agarose gel for 400 to 7000base pairs DNA.onthe other hand 2% agarose gel is used for the 50 to 2000 base pairs DNA. so you can use 0.5% or 1.2% agarose gel for 2,500 base pairs DNA.
