<h2>What are DNA ladders and size markers?</h2>
&nbsp;
DNA ladders and size markers are mixtures of double-stranded DNA fragments of precisely known lengths, run in a dedicated lane alongside experimental samples to provide a fragment size scale. Each band represents a DNA fragment of a specific, labeled size, and sample band migration distance is compared against the ladder's reference bands to estimate fragment length. Most ladders also provide approximate mass information per band based on total DNA loaded, allowing a rough estimate of sample mass by intensity comparison.

<h2>How to choose DNA ladders and markers</h2>
&nbsp;
Match your ladder's size range to your expected sample fragment sizes
If your samples are expected to be in the 200 bp to 5 kb range, a 1 kb ladder covering approximately 0.5 to 10 kb is a suitable choice. For smaller PCR amplicons, a 100 bp ladder provides more useful reference points. Select a ladder whose defined fragments span the full expected sample size range.
Choose a ready-to-load format for convenience in routine work
Ready-to-load ladders are supplied pre-mixed with loading dye and density agents, allowing direct loading into gel wells without additional preparation and reducing handling steps during routine electrophoresis workflows.
Look for a reference band at a convenient size for quick orientation
Many ladders contain one or more enhanced-intensity reference bands at commonly used sizes such as 1 kb or 3 kb, making it easier to identify ladder positions and estimate sample fragment sizes at a glance.
Confirm your staining method is compatible with the ladder's tracking dye
Certain tracking dyes can interfere with visualization of nearby DNA bands under some staining conditions, while alternative dye formulations help reduce shadowing effects and improve band visibility near the migration front.
Check whether your ladder provides mass information for DNA quantification
Some ladders include estimated DNA mass values for individual bands, allowing approximate comparison of sample band intensity against a known reference. Precise quantification, however, generally requires dedicated fluorometric or spectrophotometric measurement.
&nbsp;
<h2>Specifications context</h2>
&nbsp;
DNA ladders are generated from defined DNA templates and designed to produce fragments of known sizes, often with one or more higher-intensity bands that serve as visual reference points for rapid orientation during gel analysis.
Ready-to-load premixed ladder formats remain the most widely used option for routine electrophoresis workflows, while extended-range ladders continue to gain popularity by covering both small and large fragment sizes within a single product.

Key Specifications

DNA Marker 300-10000 bp

DNA Marker 300-10000 bp by Molecular Depot is a DNA size marker for determining fragment sizes from 300 bp to 10,000 bp. A wide-range marker is needed for genomic digests and long PCR products, which run far above the usual ladder range. It is used to size large DNA fragments on agarose gels, including restriction digests and long-range PCR products. Each unit contains 1 mL. MBP supplies Molecular Depot electrophoresis reagents to research labs in the United States, Canada and worldwide.
