The
myGel mini gel box attaches directly to the power supply for a secure
connection every time. Selectable parameters include 3 preset voltages – 35V,
50V or 100V – and a 99 minute timer. All are set using the membrane keypad.
The
safety lid is vented to help dissipate heat generated during electrophoresis,
and features a viewing area above the gel. Current will only run through the
system when the lid is properly in place on top of the gel box.
Trays
and casting stands for both 10.5 x 6cm and 5 x 6cm gels are included with the
myGel Mini system, as are double-sided combs. The smaller tooth combs are
compatible with multichannel pipettes. Casting is quick and easy – just place
the tray in the casting stand and pour. The trays feature a dark contrast strip
to help visualize wells while loading and lines that fluoresce under UV and
blue light to track progress of the run.
