The new VS20WAVE Maxi System
is an innovation large-format vertical gel
electrophoresis system. Designed to perform
a variety of separations, including
first- and second-dimension SDSPAGE,
native, preparative, gradient
and high-resolution nucleic acid electrophoresis, plus capillary tube gel
IEF and electroblotting, the VS20WAVE is one of the most versatile maxi vertical
systems available.
"Wave" refers to the vertical
screw-clamp design within the PAGE insert which needs only four screws to secure as many 20x20cm
gels. This makes for much faster
set up than traditional clamping
arrangements which may use as many as 24 screws to secure just two glass plates. In
addition, the WAVE system distributes pressure
evenly along the height of the gel
rather than in the centre. This eliminates
plate bowing and gel compression, but
still maintains a leak-proof seal during
casting. The ergonomic wave-like
design of the PAGE insert aids both
handling and set up.
Whether you are running 2
or 4 gels, electroblotting, IEF using
capillary tube gels or IPG strips, you can use this omni-purpose unit
and retain all the benefits of large
format electrophoresis, - extended separation distances, greater
sample throughput and superior
resolution.
