Description
A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb is a heavy-duty, one-piece sample comb designed for horizontal agarose gel work on Owl A2 and A5 large gel electrophoresis systems. With eight teeth and a tooth thickness of 1 mm, it forms uniform wells suited to routine nucleic acid separations and multi-sample screening on large-format gels. The solid, one-piece construction removes the need for comb assembly, helping maintain consistent well geometry run after run and reducing handling steps at the bench. Intended specifically for Fisherbrand A2 and A5 large gel electrophoresis systems, the comb seats cleanly in the gel tray comb slots so that sample lanes remain evenly spaced across the gel width. Supplied as a single piece from manufacturer Thermo Scientific, it supports everyday molecular biology workflows where reproducible well formation and durable accessories matter. Laboratories running DNA or RNA fragment analysis, restriction digests, or PCR product checks on A2/A5 platforms can use this standard eight-tooth comb as a direct-fit accessory for casting and loading large gels with reliable lane definition.

Questions about A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Standard comb 8 1mm -
What is this article?
A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Standard comb 8 1mm - 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.
