Specifications 

The ENDURO Mini is a great saver of space and money. This power supply can handle up to 2 gel boxes at atime and is great for horizontal DNA gels and mini-vertical protein gels. These are small in size but not performance. The ergonomic design of the ENDURO Mini allows them to be stacked. However, to minimize cabling, up to three power supplies can be placed within the PowerStock allowing optimal air circulation while only utilizing one power outlet at the bench. These units are full featured with 300V, 400mA, 60W and built in timer. They can run at either constant voltage or constant current and have automatic cross-over as well as no-load detection.

Cas9 Nuclease 
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated (Cas) systems provide bacteria and archaea with adaptive immunity against viruses and plasmids by using CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) to guide the silencing of invading nucleic acids. The CRISPR system consists of a short non-coding guide RNA (sgRNA) made up of a target complementary CRISPR RNA (crRNA) and an auxiliary transactivating crRNA (tracrRNA). The sgRNA guides the Cas9 endonuclease to a specific genomic locus via base pairing between the crRNA sequence and the target sequence, and cleaves the DNA to create a double-strand break. The location of the break is within the target sequence 3 bases from the NGG PAM (Protospacer Adjacent Motif). The PAM sequence, NGG, must follow the targeted region on the opposite strand of the DNA with respect to the region complementary sgRNA sequence (Fig.1).

Intact Genomics Cas9 Nuclease is the purified recombinant Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 enzyme containing a nuclear localization signal (NLS) at the C-terminal for targeting to the nucleus. This enzyme is designed to perform CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing. The physical purity of this enzyme is â¥98% as assessed by SDS-PAGE with Coomassie® blue staining.

Quality Control 
Quality control is performed following the production of each new lot of product to ensure that it meets the quality standards and specifications designated for the product. Each lot is repeatedly compared side-by-side with leading competitors to ensure our products outperform the competitor before product launching.

ig-Fusion Cloning Kit 
Intact Genomics propriety ig-Fusion cloning technology is a simple, rapid and highly efficient cloning kit which allows to directly clone any PCR product(s) to any linearized expression vector at any site.

RT 2X Master Mix

• Up to 9kb cDNA synthesis
• Ensures sample to sample consistency
• Large RNA sample volume capacity
• Ready to use

Size: 100 rxns

RT 2X Master Mix is a proprietary, ready-to-use master mix for first-strand cDNA synthesis in a 2X
concentration. This optimized reaction mix contains ribonuclease inhibitor, dNTPs, and a balanced
concentration for oligo(dT) and random primers. The ribonuclease inhibitor effectively protects RNA
template from degradation. The oligo(dT) anneals selectively to the poly(A) tail of mRNAs and the
random primers do not require the presence of poly(A) and they are utilized for the transcription of
mRNA 5-end regions. The resultant cDNA can be directly used as template in different PCR experiments.
