Description
Laboratories processing several protein or nucleic acid samples may need to run multiple gels while maintaining consistent glass-plate alignment and reliable gel preparation. This mini four gel vertical electrophoresis tank provides a flexible system for running between one and four gels in a single experimental setup.
The system supports both precast gels and hand-cast gels. An edge cushion fixed to the long glass plate assists with accurate plate alignment and helps reduce gel leakage. The cam-lock rubber frame is designed for convenient operation and plate alignment during gel preparation.
Special plastic well combs do not inhibit the gel polymerization reaction. Their built-in ridges support uniform gel polymerization. A sample-loading guide helps reduce missed lanes and repeated sample loading, while the high-purity platinum electrode wire provides conductive performance.
The four gel vertical electrophoresis system can accommodate one to four precast gels and complete electrophoresis of up to four small precast gels within one hour.

FAQ
What is a mini four gel vertical electrophoresis tank used for?
It is used for the separation, purification and preparation of protein and nucleic acid samples. It also supports analytical protein electrophoresis, protein purity identification, complex protein sample analysis and nucleic acid electrophoresis.
How many gels can the vertical electrophoresis system run?
The system can accommodate between one and four gels according to the experimental requirement.
Does the electrophoresis tank support precast and hand-cast gels?
Yes. The system supports hand-cast gels measuring 8.3 × 7.3 cm and precast gels measuring 8.6 × 6.8 cm.
What gel thickness is supplied as standard?
The standard gel thickness is 1.0 mm. Components for 0.75 mm and 1.5 mm gel thicknesses are available as optional configurations.
What comb configurations are available?
The standard configuration uses a 1.0 mm 10-well comb. Optional configurations include 0.75 mm, 1.0 mm and 1.5 mm combs with 10-well or 15-well formats.
How does the sample-loading guide assist gel electrophoresis?
The sample-loading guide helps direct sample loading and reduces the possibility of missing a lane or loading the same lane repeatedly.
