Agarose with a low gelling temperature is widely used in molecular biology for applications requiring gentle gel formation. It is particularly valuable in the separation and recovery of delicate biomolecules, such as DNA and RNA, as it solidifies at lower temperatures, reducing the risk of damage. This type of agarose is also employed in techniques like pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, where it provides better resolution for large DNA fragments. Additionally, it is used in cell encapsulation and tissue engineering, where its low gelling temperature ensures minimal stress on living cells during the encapsulation process. Its ability to form gels at lower temperatures also makes it suitable for creating matrices for drug delivery systems and other biomedical applications.
