The Easigel H1-SET offers a swift and simple horizontal gel electrophoresis solution for standard preparative and analytical studies of nucleic acids. The Easigel's compact design minimises the buffer volume required to cover the gel, giving the user optimal control over the voltage gradient and run-time. Plastic casting gates allow direct gel-casting within the tank without the need for costly accessories, while two 1mm thick…

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 runn…

The HU20 Maxi-standard horizontal gel unit is ideal for large-scale preparatory and analytical electrophoresis techniques.A 20 x 20cm gel-casting tray, with 4 comb positions, allows the user to perform high-resolution analytical research for a maximum of 168 samples, while buffer recirculation ports are included as standard to prevent buffer depletion and ion gradient formation during long-distance separations. Casting gates w…

V10-SDB 10 x 10cm and V20-SDB 20 x 20cm semi-dry blotters are ideal for fast transfer of proteins and nucleic acids without the need for costly accessories such as gel cassettes and tanks. Corrosion-free platinum-coated titanium and stainless steel plate electrodes, corresponding to the anode and cathode, maximise the active area of transfer so that full electrical contact is made between the gel and the membrane, allowing tr…

Fast sample-to-membrane hybridisation guaranteed for immediate screening Available in alphanumeric 24, 48 and 96 sample throughputs, Scie-Plas's dot and slot blot microfiltration manifolds provide an easy and reproducible means to hybridise proteins and nucleic acids in solution onto membranes. These manifolds, which are machined from high-density acrylic, have precision-lapped mating surfaces that ensure uniform filter/membra…

For all electrophoresis techniques Consort EV200 power supplies cover the full range of voltages and currents used with all Scie-Plas electrophoresis units, whether it is for routine low voltage horizontal and vertical gel electrophoresis or high voltage applications such as isoelectric focusing and sequencing. Nine different program settings, each with 9 different parameters, allow more complex, multi-step techniques to be pr…
