Description
Owl™ JGC Gel Casting Systems - 14 cm are vertical protein gel casters that enable faster casting of polyacrylamide gels through a distinctive pouch-based method. The pouch collects excess polyacrylamide and seals the bottom of the gel, removing any need for tape or bottom spacers. Gels can be stored without dehydration by adding buffer and heat sealing. The system casts from one to four gels at a time. Few moving parts support outstanding durability and an extra-long service life. Gel length is 14 cm and gel width is 16 cm; overall depth is 17 cm. Designed for use with the Owl™ JGC Gel Casting System (compatible reference 09-518-157C), this caster type is supplied complete with casting stand, blocking plate, three-point leveling base, spacer placer and 25 gel pouches. Gel plates and combs are sold separately. These units from manufacturer Thermo Scientific suit routine vertical protein electrophoresis workflows in research and analytical laboratories where reliable, repeatable gel preparation is required. Pack size is 1 pc.

Questions about Owl™ JGC Gel Casting Systems 14cm -
What is this article?
Owl™ JGC Gel Casting Systems 14cm - 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.
