Simple, rapid, leak proof gel casting….

Option A Screw version

1. Insert glass plates and tighten screws
2. Transfer to casting base and tighten cams
3. Insert gel solution and comb and allow to polymerise
4. Transfer to tank, fill with buffer and run

Option B Clamp version

1. Insert glass plates and slide gates to create efficient seal
2. Transfer to casting base and tighten cams
3. Insert gel solution and comb and allow to polymerise
4. Transfer to tank, fill with buffer and run

Presure Clamping frame

A unique single piece pressure frame offers the option of rapid single screw per side or new screw free set up. Even pressure and buffer contact across the plates results in even sample migration and efficient heat removal from the gel. Glass plates are 2mm thick to reduce breakage.

Run up to four gels at a time

While most vertical gel units can run only one or two gels, the Clarit-E Mini units can run one, two or up to four gels at any time using a triple glass plate sandwich.

Effective buffer cooling

A simple to use cooling pack system ensures enhanced resolution without costly and time consuming additional equipment. No chiller, tap or obstructing connecting leads are required. The cooling pack is simply pre-chilled in a freezer and placed in the gel tank. Additionally, the use of cooling packs reduces buffer volume.

Typical Applications

Mini SDS PAGE, Native PAGE, Gradient, Second dimension and Nucleic acid separations

The preferred unit for routine mini protein electrophoresis, the Clarit-E mini is constructed using the latest injection moulding manufacturing techniques. This gives a high quality, low cost product with unsurpassed finish, durability and strength.

The unit incorporates a sealing system, which is compatible with all major types of 8 x 10cm and 10 x 10cm precast gel. Gel casting and running utilise the same insert, no transfer of glass plates during gel casting is necessary. The insert contains the option of sliding clamps or just one screw per clamping bar side allowing very rapid set up of both hand cast and precast gels. Ultra soft silicone seals and pressure bars, which surround the glass plates, guarantee leak proof gel casting. 2mm thick glass plates prevent breakage and have bonded spacers for convenience.

Accessory electroblotting and tube gel modules are available which use the same outer tank and lid. See Modular systems for further information.
