The standard contains 16 Orange dye-labeled, single-stranded fragments in the 45-595 nucleotides range with basepair lengths of 35, 50, 75, 100, 139, 150, 160, 200, 250, 300, 340, 350, 400, 450, 490 and 500 bp. The size standard can be used for a variety of applications like Microsatellites, MLPA, Fragment Length analysis, Fragment Length Polymorphisms etc. Each of the DNA fragments is labeled with a LIZ® compatible fluorophore resulting in a sharp orange peak under denaturing conditions. With this size standard, your own custom marker fragments can be labeled with the dyes FAM™, VIC® , NED™ or PET® (G5 filterset, Life Technologies) or with FAM™, ZEL™, SOL™, FER™ (B5 filterset, Biolegio/Nimagen) . Each kit contains enough standard for at least 800 analyses. Protocol Before use, mix the contents of each tube thoroughly and centrifuge briefly to collect the liquid at the bottom of the tube. Typical loading mix: 0.5 µl (diluted) sample, 0.5 µl Size Standard and 9 µl Super-DI or Hi-Di™ Formamide. This cocktail should be considered as a starting point only. Optimize these ratios if necessary, based on your experimental results. If needed, extend the time for datacollection in your instrument software, to obtain collection of the full length
