Columns designed for easy labeling and handling
- Monarch columns have been designed for a snug fit into the collection tubes for easy handling. This is especially helpful when taking columns in and out of the centrifuge.
- The Monarch Miniprep Column has a convenient tab for easy labeling. There is no need to remove the column from your tube rack! (And don’t worry – you can easily label our cleanup columns too – they are capped).
Improved buffer system
Miniprep Kits
- Our colored buffers help you easily identify the correct buffer to use
- Color indicators help monitor completion of certain steps
- RNase is already added to Monarch Plasmid Neutralization Buffer (B3) for convenience – no need to worry if you remembered to add RNase!
Gel Extraction and PCR & DNA Cleanup Kits
- No pH adjustment steps necessary with Monarch Kits! Our buffers have been designed to eliminate the need to monitor the pH of your reaction, saving you a step.
- All buffers are available for purchase separately (as are columns.
