Description
A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Rapid Load Comb is a heavy-duty, one-piece comb with 18 teeth and a metric tooth thickness of 1,5 mm. It is made for Owl A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis Systems and eliminates separate comb assembly steps during gel preparation. The Rapid Load format supports efficient multi-sample loading across eighteen wells, which is useful when higher sample throughput is needed on large-format horizontal gels. One-piece construction improves mechanical stability and helps keep well spacing consistent from run to run. This comb integrates with the standard comb positions of the A2 and A5 platforms used in molecular biology, teaching, and routine analytical electrophoresis. From manufacturer Thermo Scientific, the accessory follows the Fisherbrand™ / Owl™ comb range for these systems and is supplied as one piece for replacement or capacity expansion. Laboratories can use it wherever durable 18-well, 1,5 mm combs are required for reliable sample separation workflows on A2 and A5 large gel units.

Questions about A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Rapid Load comb 18
What is this article?
A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Rapid Load comb 18 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.
