Bio-Rad Mini PROTEAN Tetra Cell Electrophoresis SystemThe versatile, easy-to-use Mini-PROTEANTetra cell is ideal for vertical mini gel electrophoresis. This electrophoresis cell accommodates one to four Mini-PROTEAN precast or handcast gels, providing flexibility for your research needs. The Mini-PROTEAN Tetra cell eliminates tedious assembly procedures and has a patented sealing mechanism* that prevents assembly errors during handcasting.Features and Benefits:Run one to four precast or handcast mini gels in less than an hourCan also be used with the Mini Trans-Blotelectrophoresis cell for western blottingThermoplastic casting gaskets form a tight seal with the glass plates to ensure leak-free castingCasting frames** with simple cam closure provide precision alignment on any flat surfaceSide-by-side casting stand** allows access to both gels simultaneously, and a spring-loaded lever creates a tight seal against the thermoplastic rubber gasketRun 2-D gels in less than a dayApplications and Uses:Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE or SDS-PAGE)2-D gel electrophoresisScreen new samplesEvaluate sample preparation conditionsSpecifications:Number of gels:14Precast gels: Mini-PROTEANprecast gelsHandcast gels: Cast using Mini-PROTEAN spacer platesGel size (W x L): Precast: 8.6 x 6.8 cm Handcast: 8.3 x 7.3 cmGlass plate size (W x L): Short plate 10.1 x 7.3 cm Spacer plate 10.1 x 8.2 cmTotal buffer volume for 2 gels: 700 mlTotal buffer volume for 4 gels: 1,000 mlTypical run times for SDS-PAGE: 3545 min (at 200 V constant)Recommended power supply: PowerPac Basic or PowerPac HC (high current)Additional Prep Fees May Apply
