ABSTRACT:
A DNA sequencing method for use in sequencing a DNA target sequence up to 300 bases, preferably up to 500 bases or greater in length, by electrophoretically separating a mixture of single-stranded DNA sequencing fragments in a capillary tube. The method employs an aqueous denaturing solution comprising between about 4 and about 7 weight percent linear polyacrylamide molecules having an average molecular weight of between about 20 and about 100 kDa. The low-viscosity of the solution allows rapid loading and reloading of such solution into the capillary tube.
