1N Sodium hydroxide is a ready to use solution which can be easily diluted and pH adjusted to any concentration It is extensively used during nucleic acid sequencing and in RNA gel blot procedures for simultaneous transfer and fixing of RNA to membrane.
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is commonly called caustic soda and is extensively used in paper, soap and detergent industry. 1N Sodium hydroxide is a ready to use solution which can be easily diluted and pH adjusted to
any concentration. This solution is extensively used for neutralizing acids and preparing sodium salts of reagents. It is utilized during the Maxam-Gilbert DNA sequencing experiment. Diluted Sodium hydroxide solution is used in RNA gel blot procedure for simultaneous transfer and fixing of RNA to a positively charged nylon membrane
