Guide (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs).
The preparation of agarose gel:
1. Agarose gels are commonly used in concentrations of 0.5% to 2.5% depending on the size of bands needed to be separated.
2. Mix the agarose powder with 1 X TAE/TBE.
3. Microwave for 1-3 min until the agarose is completely dissolved (Caution: not overboil).
4. Make the solution cool down before solidification.
5. Add EtBr to a final concentration of approximately 0.2-0.5 μg/mL.
6. EtBr binds to the DNA and you could visualize the DNA under ultraviolet (UV) light.
(Caution: EtBr is a known mutagen. Please pay attention to strengthening protection.)

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
