Description
The standard comb for A2 and A5 large gel electrophoresis systems is a heavy-duty, one-piece accessory for consistent well formation on large-format horizontal gels. It provides 12 teeth with a tooth thickness of 1,5 mm and eliminates multi-part comb assembly, supporting reliable sample loading in routine agarose electrophoresis. Intended for Fisherbrand Owl A2 and A5 large gel electrophoresis systems, the comb produces uniform wells suited to nucleic acid separation, fragment sizing and everyday molecular biology workflows. The robust single-piece design helps preserve well geometry across repeated casting cycles and simplifies handling between runs. This comb from manufacturer Thermo Scientific seats directly in the matching A2 and A5 gel trays, making it a practical spare or replacement for teaching and research laboratories. Supplied as one piece, it suits labs that need dependable multi-sample loading on large gels without compromising lane definition. The twelve-well standard layout balances sample capacity and spacing for common electrophoresis protocols on large systems.

Questions about A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Standard comb 12 1.5mm
What is this article?
A2 and A5 Large Gel Electrophoresis System Standard Comb Standard comb 12 1.5mm 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.
