Enhanced Safety MechanismFeaturing a sturdy interlock system, this electrophoresis unit prevents any electrical current from flowing when the lid is opened, ensuring user safety during sample loading or retrieval. This critical design feature minimizes the risk of accidental shocks, maintaining a secure lab environment.
Optimal Sample Handling and VisualizationThe wide lid opening grants effortless access for sample loading, accommodating various comb sizes for up to 36 samples simultaneously. Constructed from UV transparent acrylic, the tray allows real-time observation of sample migration, supporting accurate and efficient experimental workflow.
Precise and Reliable SeparationWith high precision in sample separation, this horizontal unit provides consistent and reliable results. Its accurate voltage control, durable rectangular design, and temperature resistance up to 80C make it a dependable choice for DNA, RNA, and protein electrophoresis tasks in research and diagnostics.
FAQs of HORIZONTAL ELECTROPHORESIS:
Q: How do I operate the horizontal electrophoresis unit safely?
A: Always ensure the lid is securely closed before starting the electrophoresis run, as the lid interlock system only allows current flow when closed. This safety feature protects users from accidental electric shocks during operation.
Q: What types of samples can I separate using this apparatus?
A: This unit is designed for the separation of DNA, RNA, or protein samples in molecular biology and research laboratories. The UV transparent tray accommodates up to 36 samples per run, depending on the comb used.
Q: When should the buffer be replaced in the apparatus?
A: The buffer volume is approximately 300 ml per run. It should be replaced after each electrophoresis session to maintain optimal separation performance and prevent contamination or degradation of results.
Q: Where should I position the electrophoresis unit in the laboratory?
A: Place the unit on a stable, level surface near a suitable power source. Ensure the area is well-ventilated and close to UV visualization equipment if immediate gel imaging is required after separation.
Q: What is the process for loading samples into the unit?
A: Open the wide access lid, carefully load the prepared samples into the wells using a micropipette, and close the lid securely. Select the appropriate comb for your sample quantity, ensuring not to exceed the recommended maximum of 36 samples.
Q: How does using this electrophoresis unit benefit laboratory workflow?
A: The units high precision, wide access lid, and safety interlock enable faster, safer, and more reliable analysis. Its capacity for multiple samples and clear sample visualization reduce turnaround time and ensure consistent, high-quality experimental results.
Q: What maintenance is required to keep the apparatus in good working condition?
A: After each use, thoroughly rinse the tray and electrodes with distilled water, and periodically inspect the lid interlock for functionality. Avoid using abrasive cleaners to preserve the UV transparent acrylic and colored electrodes.
