Horizontal and vertical electrophoresis tanks are essential equipment for the separation of DNA, RNA, and proteins using an electric field, enabling the analysis of different types of biological samples.
Horizontal systems are typically used with agarose gels and are ideal for the separation of nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA, especially larger fragments. In contrast, vertical systems are mainly used with polyacrylamide gels (PAGE and SDS-PAGE), making them more suitable for proteins and smaller fragments, providing higher resolution and greater accuracy in results.
Available in a range of sizes and configurations, these systems adapt to various laboratory needs, offering reliable and efficient solutions for applications in molecular biology, genetics, and proteomics.
Horizontal Electrophoresis (DNA and RNA)
Specifications of available models:
- What is the required number of samples/combs?
- What gel size do you intend to use: 7×7, 7×10, 10×10, 15×10, 15×15, or 20×20 cm?
- Are you looking for a complete system including tank and power supply in one unit?
- Do you need to visualize DNA migration in real time?
- Do you require a power supply for electrophoresis?
Vertical Electrophoresis (Proteins – PAGE)
Specifications of available models:
- Do you intend to perform protein separation (SDS-PAGE) or 2D electrophoresis?
- What gel size do you intend to use: 10×10 cm or 20×20 cm?
- Do you require an integrated cooling system for vertical runs?
- In addition to running gels, do you need to perform Western blotting (transfer) in the same system?
- Do you require a power supply for electrophoresis?
