When running agarose gels 2.5% or greater, the xylene cyanol often occludes my bands of interest.
Usually loading dye contains bromophenol blue and xylene cynol. If you are facing such kind of problem, you need to ask representative of company.
Some company tech representative might be a good source, thanks. I just though the community here might have some relevant experience to share.
I got these smeared bands quite often lately. We typically run the gel at 140V with a 10-12% gel and do a wet transfer at 220 mA for 1.5 hr in cold room. We also noticed some dirty spots/dots (see...
