ing stand and provides the seal for the bottom
of the gel sandwich. The slotted gasket fits
under the upper chamber and provides the seal
between the sandwich and the upper chamber.
Two ridges help position this gasket.
Spacer-Mate assembly template.
Aligns spacers
for sandwich assembly.
Wonder Wedge Plate Separator Tool.
Use to
disassemble gel sandwiches and to gauge spacer
and comb thickness.
Spacers.
(May be ordered separately.) Spacers
determine the thickness of the gel. They are 2 cm
wide and are available in three thicknesses: 0.75,
1.0, and 1.5 mm.
Combs.
(May be ordered separately.) Teflon
™
combs that form 1 to 28 wells are available in
three thicknesses: 0.75, 1.0, and 1.5 mm. Blank
combs form a single large well, and preparative
combs include 1 or 2 reference wells in addition
to the preparative well.
All blanks, preparative combs, and combs with
fewer than 28 wells form wells that are 25 mm
deep. The 28-well comb forms wells that are
only 15 mm deep so that wells do not collapse
when the comb is removed. The sample volume
held by each well depends on the gel thickness,
well depth and the number of wells per comb.
Table 2 on page 15 lists volume per 1 mm depth
for wells created by each comb size. See the
ordering information for additional comb
specifications.
