pUC18 Plasmid | High-Copy Cloning Vector for Molecular Biology Research

The pUC18 and pUC19 plasmids are high-copy number cloning vectors designed for efficient DNA manipulation and sequencing in E. coli host strains. These vectors are essential tools for molecular biology laboratories, featuring a robust multiple cloning site (MCS) and reliable blue/white screening capabilities.

Key Technical Specifications:

• Vector Type: High-copy number plasmid for maximized DNA yield.
• Selection Marker: Ampicillin resistance (Amp) for easy transformant selection.
• Cloning Interface: Features a refined multiple cloning site (MCS) within the lacZ gene, allowing for streamlined blue/white colony screening.
• Research Applications: Ideal for routine cloning, DNA sequencing, and the preparation of high-quality DNA templates for downstream assays.
• Host Compatibility: Optimized for use with standard laboratory E. coli strains (e.g., DH5α, JM109).

Usage Classification

• Research Use Only (RUO): This product is designed and sold strictly for laboratory research and development. It is not for use in any human or veterinary clinical applications.
