Synthesis of low molecular weight DNA ladder / Nurul Farhana Kamarulzaman

DNA ladder is an important tool in Gel Electrophoresis to determine the size of DNA fragment of (Polymerase Chain Reaction) PCR products. It has two types which is low molecular weight and high molecular weight DNA ladder. The objective of this research is to synthesize low molecular weight DNA ladd...
