HU6 Mini Horizontal

The HU6 Mini horizontal gel unit is ideal for routine preparatory and analytical electrophoresis techniques.

It has a maximum 32-sample throughput capacity and features a removable gel-casting tray with end gaskets that allow gels to be cast directly within the tank. The gel-casting tray is simply turned at 90° to the direction of electrophoresis, when the end gaskets form a leak proof seal against the inner walls of the running chamber. Once the gel has set and is ready for loading, the gel-casting tray is then restored to its correct orientation in the direction of electrophoresis.

Alternatively, single gels may be cast outside of the tank using HU6-SCG silicone casting gates or HU6-SS Scie-Plas Super-Seals, while up to 3 additional gels may be cast simultaneously within the HU6-CU mini-gel external casting unit.


HU6 Mini Horizontal Features:

• Four casting options provide total flexibility in gel casting, either directly within the tank or externally when the tank is in use.
• Combs colour-coded and height-adjustable - offer complete control over loading volume and well depth to a maximum 32-sample throughput.
• Coloured loading strips for easy well detection when loading.
• Short 6cm gel length - ideal for rapid separations.
• Compact tank - reduces the buffer volume required to cover the gel, providing greater control over the voltage gradient and run-time.
• UV-transparent acrylic casting tray - allows the user to image the gel without risk of damage due to handling.
• Side handles - for safe and easy transportation around the laboratory.
