Sequencing Units

These single-plate large format vertical gel electrophoresis units are ideal for high-resolution techniques, such as DNA sequencing DNase and RNase footprinting, and heteroduplex and oligonucleotide analysis, which require longer separation distances. They are available in two sizes (W x H): 20x50 cm and 33x41 cm.
 
Safety lid
Although light weight and easily detachable, the lid cannot be removed during electrophoresis without breaking the electrical circuit.
 
Ventilation grille
It aids heat dispersal during electrophoresis and can be replaced by the optional thermostatic fan kit.
 
High voltage power cables
Cables are oriented asymmetrically for correct polar orientation and equipped with 2 mm shrouded output connectors which are universally compatible with modern high voltage power supplies.
 
Carrying handles
Safety handles, complemented by a new streamlined and light weight design, allow easy transportation around the lab.
 
Spring-loaded plate clamps
They act in conjunction with counterbalanced sili-cone gaskets to maintain uniform gel thickness and even distribution of pressure across the 4 mm thick foat glass plates.
 
Heat sink plate
The aluminium back plate ensures uniform heat dis-persion across the gel and to prevent sample distortion and ‘smiling’.Lower buffer chamberThe lower buffer chamber clips directly onto the anode and can also be used to drain buffer from the upper chamber.
