IPTG / X-GAL Spray Solution

• Ready to use IPTG/X-gal solutionfor selection of cloning construct in LacZ expression in the presence of lacl repressor
• Concentration: 8mg/ml
• Each spray produces approximately 0.20ml
• Proprietary formulation enhances blue color

IPTG/X-GAL Solution is a ready-to-use product packaged in an easy-to-use spray bottle. The solution is used in selection of cloning construct in LacZ expression in the presence of lacl repressor.

The concentration of this solution is 8 mg/ml of IPTG and X-GAL. Each pump of the easy to use spray bottle produces approximately 0.20 ml of solution. This volume of solution per actuation should be used to determine your required volume per plate. Spread solution and pause to ensure absorption by waiting approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
