| Quality Control | |
| Overdigestion Assay | No detectable change in the specific fragmentation pattern is observed after 160-fold overdigestion (10u/ug lambda DNA x 16 hours) with MluI. |
|
| Ligation/Recutting Assay | After 50-fold overdigestion (3u/ug DNA x 17 hours) with MluI, more than 95% of the DNA fragments can be ligated at a 5'-termini concentration of 0.07uM. More than 95% of these can be recut. |
|
| Labeled Oligonucleotide (LO) Assay | No detectable degradation of a single-stranded and double-stranded labeled oligonucleotide was observed after incubation with 10units of restriction endonuclease for 4 hours. |
|
| Blue/White Cloning Assay | The mix of pUC57/HindIII, pUC57/Eco32I and pUC57/PstI digests was incubated with 10units of enzyme for 16 hours. After religation and transformation 0.2% of white colonies were detected. |
