TV100Y Standard &TV100YK Cooled Twin-Plate Mini-Gel Electrophoresis Units
TV100Y Standard &TV100YK Cooled Twin-Plate Mini-Gel Electrophoresis Units
The TV100Y and TV100YK twin-plate 10 x 10cm (W x H) mini-gel units are ideal for standard PAGE applications requiring self-cast gels. Soft silicone gaskets in a precision engineered casting base, included as standard with each unit, act in tandem with our newly modified GRM to provide simple, leak-free gel casting and assembly.
BENEFITS INCLUDE
Twin-plate 10 x 10cm mini-gel unit
designed specifically for PAGE techniques requiring self-cast gels, although precast gels may also be used
Casting base
included as standard with both units
Two versions available:
Standard TV100Y – non-cooled + casting Cooled TV100YK – cooled + casting
Glass plate stops
within the newly modified GRM – lock the glass plates firmly into position onto soft silicone gaskets in the casting base to ensure leak-free gelcasting
Enhanced cooling
in the TV100YK – snaplock connectors allow the cooling coil to be connected to the JULABO chiller unit for faster, higher voltage separations
Compatible
with commercially available 10 x 10cm precast gels, with SERVA precast gels available through SciePlas for the TV100-GRM (see page 141)
Additional gel casting
with the optional TV100-MC2 and TV100-MC10 2 and 10 gel multicasters
Float glass plates – 2mm thick
guarantee uniform gel thickness and even sample migration, and with ground edges to inhibit sample leakage during casting
Single screws
at either side each gelclamping plate – act in conjunction with a counterbalanced, dovetailed silicone gasket to disperse pressure evenly along the height and breadth of the gel as the screws are tightened
Low buffer volumes
within the inner chamber of the GRM and gel tank economises buffer consumption
Colour-coded combs and spacers
available in 0.75, 1, 1.5 and 2mm thicknesses
Smaller footprint area
occupies minimal bench space
