Oh purification for micro is pretty pointless, I was talking about agarose purification for gels.

I really should add that to my biohacking protocols repo..
Suffice to say it's doable, and straightforward, but very messy and not cost effective unless you can fractionally distil an alcohol *and* propylene glycol (boils 200+C).

Am pretty sure I shared the protocol on this list previously..

Some of the older texts (1960s and 1970s) discuss purification of agar to increase clarity. It's a pretty involved process, but if anybody would like the references so they can go read about it themselves, I can look them up.

If I remember correctly, Cathal gave that a try. Don't remember if he ever gave a thorough summary of his experience with this, other than that it was very messy...
