Single Cell Electrophoresis Units are Fast & Convenient
28 May 2006New easy-to-use, rapid and reliable Comet Assay Electrophoresis systems which meet the increasing demands for single cell gel electrophoresis techniques, are the latest addition to the CLEAVER SCIENTIFIC (CSL) range of products.
Single cell gel electrophoresis offers a fast and convenient way for scientists to evaluate DNA damage in the cell which could be caused by a variety of environmental factors, such as chemicals and molecules. Pharmaceutical, medical device companies and other general laboratories are discovering that Comet Assay is a highly sensitive and efficient means of assessing and quantifying DNA damage and repair in drug development applications.
These convenient, light-free, quick to set-up Comet Assay units are capable of high quality, rapid and reliable sample resolution and provide optimum flexibility for a variety of single cell electrophoresis techniques. They also offer the benefit of word removed a highly efficient cooling platform which can be easily connected to a chiller. This enables high capacity cooling of the slides and so enhances the performance and consistency of results.
The range comprises six different models, four of which are for use with 10, 20, 40 or 80 standard sized slides, while two models are for use with three and six respectively of the newly released Trevigen 96 Cometslide.
All units are completely non-transparent to light and offer a very convenient solution to keeping the samples out of direct light which can reduce the efficiency of the assay.
