AM9785 ElectroZap 250 ml
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
  • Specially formulated to instantaneously eliminate RNase contamination from electrodes

  • Easily rinsed away leaving no residue

  • Stable, safe and non-corrosive

  • No need for strong acid or alkali

  • Also removes DNases and other proteins

Researchers performing RNA analysis often require the use of a pH meter to prepare their RNase-free solutions. The use of the same pH meter by several laboratory personnel, however, can often lead to problems with RNase contamination. This is especially a problem when preparing solutions that cannot be DEPC-treated or autoclaved. Even trace amounts of RNase can lead to lower yields in in vitro transcription reactions, for example.

Special precautions must be taken when removing RNase contamination from a pH meter so that the accuracy will be unaffected and there is no residue left by the cleaning solution. Ambion's ElectroZap™ is a non-corrosive, stable cleaning solution that has been specially formulated to clean electrode surfaces in a simple, quick and efficient manner. It is effective even against high levels of RNase or DNase contamination. ElectroZap is simply sprayed directly onto the electrode and then rinsed off with RNase-free water. It does not leave behind any residue that may interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions.
