Vertical Electrophoresis Apparatus

We offer vertical electrophoresis apparatus that is used for sequencing. This system shows the components common to all vertical slab systems. The gel is cast between two glass plates, separated by spacers. The gel is mounted in the system so that the top is in contact with the negative electrode chamber, and the bottom is in contact with the positive electrode chamber. Unlike the horizontal system, the only connection between the buffer chambers is through the gel. This allows precise and reproducible control of the voltage gradient. Because of the high resistance of the thin gel, the apparatus must have provisions for cooling.
