title: Rehydratable agarose gels: use of low EEO agarose without charged additives.
abstract: Agarose [SeaKem HGT(P)] gels of 0.5% to 1.2% can be dried at room temperature and rehydrated to 84-85% of their original water content. Mobilities, using the 84-85% rehydrated gels, are indistinguishable from those on the original gels. This suggests that the fiber structure and effective pore size of agarose are independent on the 16% loosely bound (and probably synersed) water.
