Introduction
E-PAGE
™
Protein Electrophoresis System
About the
E-PAGE
™
Protein
Electrophoresis
System
The E-PAGE
™
Protein Electrophoresis System is designed for fast, medium-to-
high-throughput protein electrophoresis in a horizontal format.
The self-contained E-PAGE
™
48
or
96
Pre-cast Gels consist of a buffered gel
matrix and electrodes packaged inside a disposable, UV-transparent cassette.
The gels can be loaded by multichannel pipetter or automated loading system.
Electrophoresis of the samples is performed with the E-Base
™
Electrophoresis
Device. The E-Base
™
Electrophoresis Device consists of a base for
electrophoresis, and an integral power supply. After electrophoresis is
completed, the cassette can be opened with the Invitrogen
™
Gel Knife (Cat.
No. EI9010, sold separately) to perform downstream applications such as
western blotting or staining.
The E-Editor
™
2.02 software allows digital images of the E-PAGE
™
Gels to be
reconfigured into a side-by-side format for easy comparison and analysis.
Applications
The E-PAGE
™
Protein Electrophoresis System is ideal for screening protein
samples using the following applications:
•
In-gel staining with Lumio
™
Green Reagent
•
Western blotting
•
Staining (Coomassie, silver, or fluorescent stains)
•
Functional assays
Advantages
Using E-PAGE
™
Gels for protein analysis offers the following advantages:
•
Produces fast, safe, and consistent electrophoresis
•
Eliminates the need to prepare gels and buffers
•
Compatible with most commercially available automated liquid handling
systems for high-throughput electrophoresis
•
Available in two well formats to suit your applications
•
Easy to open gel cassettes facilitate downstream staining and blotting
applications
•
Ability to track samples during electrophoresis of multiple gels using an
individual barcode on each gel cassette
