Put 2% agarose gel into the electrophoresis tank.
Prepare 0.5X TAE buffer ( add Amount3.5 mL 50X TAE buffer and Amount350 mL ddH2O and mix them), then pour into the electrophoresis tank. Make sure the gel is soaked into the buffer completely.

Take Amount5 µL of marker and load it in the first well.

Take Amount1 µL of 6X loading dye and drop on the parafilm separately, pipetting dye with Amount5 µL of sample

Load samples into each well
