Description
The Owl™ A1 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb is a heavy-duty, one-piece comb for horizontal agarose gel casting and sample-well formation. It provides 8 teeth with a tooth thickness of 1 mm, giving a standard multi-sample layout suited to large-format gels run on the Owl A1 platform. One-piece construction removes comb assembly steps, helping keep well geometry consistent from cast to cast and shortening preparation time between electrophoresis runs. Supplied as 1 pc, the comb is intended for Thermo Scientific™ Owl A1 Large Gel Electrophoresis Systems and seats directly in the gel-casting workflow of that instrument family. Robust build quality supports repeated use in molecular biology, genomics, teaching, and routine nucleic-acid analysis where reproducible wells are required for DNA or RNA separation alongside ladders and controls. The 8-tooth standard format balances sample capacity with clear lane spacing on A1 large gels, supporting orderly loading and straightforward band comparison after electrophoresis. Laboratories standardising on the Owl A1 system can use this comb as a dedicated accessory for everyday horizontal gel work without multi-part comb hardware.

Questions about Owl™ A1 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Standard comb 8
What is this article?
Owl™ A1 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Standard comb 8 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Equipment LED for laboratory use. It sits in Gels, combs & casting accessories, inside Electrophoresis, in Microbiology lab supplies.
A gel, a comb and a casting tray make the slab a sample runs through. Agarose percentage, or the acrylamide mix, sets the sieve. The comb thickness and the number of teeth set the wells. Precast and hand-cast gels are different products. A comb for a different tray does not seal.
Electrophoresis pulls charged molecules through a gel. Smaller ones move farther. Agarose gels separate nucleic acids. Polyacrylamide gels separate proteins. A comb forms the wells. A power supply holds the voltage or the current. The gel percentage is the sieve. A marker lane is how the bands are named. The methods are in the PubMed literature. Sequences of the nucleic acids are on NCBI Nucleotide.
