Description
The Owl™ D4 horizontal electrophoresis system microwell comb is a heavy-duty, one-piece comb developed to remove comb assembly from horizontal gel electrophoresis workflows. It features 17 teeth with a metric tooth thickness of 1,5 mm and is intended specifically for the Owl D4 electrophoresis system. Supplied as a single comb unit, it supports consistent microwell formation for sample loading on D4 gels and simplifies day-to-day setup in the laboratory. The one-piece design is built for repeated use with the matching horizontal tank and gel tray, helping operators move efficiently from gel casting to sample application. This comb from Thermo Scientific belongs to the Owl D4 accessory range for horizontal electrophoresis and is described as a microwell comb type rather than a multi-part assembly. Manufacturer ordering information notes that customised combs can be requested when a non-catalogue tooth pattern is needed. For laboratories running the Owl D4 system, the 17-tooth, 1,5 mm microwell comb provides a direct, durable means of defining sample wells and maintaining reproducible lane geometry during horizontal gel electrophoresis.

Questions about Owl™ D4 Horizontal Electrophoresis System Combs Micro well comb 17
What is this article?
Owl™ D4 Horizontal Electrophoresis System Combs Micro well comb 17 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.
