Vertical gel electrophoresis is a widely used technique in molecular biology and biochemistry for separating proteins and nucleic acids based on their size and charge. The DR Labs vertical electrophoresis units are designed as single-molded systems, eliminating the need for fabrication or adhesive joints, ensuring a leak-proof experience. These units feature a uniquely designed caster assembly that is simple to operate and guarantees a secure, leak-free performance.

KEY FEATURES:

• In-Situ Gel Making Mode: The gel making and running process is completed without dismantling the electrophoresis glass.
• Non-Spring Latch Locking Mechanism: The special design of the gel-making base, locked by a non-spring latch, prevents leakage caused by spring pressure failure or aging.
• Unique Card Plate Design: The card plate with a whole gland allows the glass plate to be sealed using extrusion rubber strips, avoiding leakage and ensuring proper positioning.
• Versatile Glass Plate and Gel Comb: Different gel comb thicknesses (1.5 mm, 1.0 mm) (0.75 optional) allow adaptation to various sample loading needs.
• Compatibility with Transfer Electrophoresis: Can be paired with the western blot assembly.
• Durable Material: Made from high-quality transparent polycarbonate for durability and easy observation.
• Molded Buffer Tank with Platinum Electrodes: Pure platinum electrodes ensure consistent conductivity and results.
• Safety Features: The unit is designed to prevent buffer and gel leakage and has removable electrodes for easy maintenance. The system automatically powers off when the lid is removed for safe operation.
• Wide Application: Suitable for SDS-PAGE, native PAGE electrophoresis, and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
• Soft Seals and Pressure Bars: Ultra-soft silicone seals and pressure bars around the glass plates guarantee a leakproof gel casting experience.
• Interchangeable Modules: Designed for PAGE and electroblotting.
• Pre-cast gel: Suitable for use with pre-cast gel.
