Invitrogen now offers plasmid sequences via internet. I've also e-mailed to
Stratagene to obtain similair information. Product databases could be very
useful, especially when technical help via AT&Tnet can be slow and/or difficult
to obtain.
Although, I certainly don't want Biotech reps responding to questions with the
sole intention of selling a product...
