FAQ: What is the maximum binding capacity of the Monarch DNA Cleanup Column provided in the Monarch DNA Gel Extraction Kit?

The matrix supplied in each column is sufficient to bind 5 μg of purified DNA under testing conditions. Purifying DNA from an agarose gel can introduce components, such as carbohydrates, that can compete for binding to the matrix and affect recovery of the DNA of interest.
