Description
Quantity: 4 x 8 Gels
Separation Range: 10 to 500 bp
Gel Percentage: 4%
Unit Size: Each
Each gel contains 48 sample wells and 4 marker wells in 1%, 2%, or 4% high-resolution agarose with a 3.2-cm run length. The various agarose percentages are used to separate DNA fragments of different sizes:
• 1% agarose gels: DNA fragments between 400 bp and 10 kb
• 2% agarose gels: DNA fragments between 50 bp and 3 kb
• 4% agarose gels: DNA fragments between 10 bp and 500 bpEach cassette is individually labeled with an EAN39 bar code that is recognized by most commercially available robotic bar code readers.Features of E-Gel gels:
• High-throughput analysis—contains 48 sample lanes and 4 marker lanes per gel
• Automation compatible—suitable for use with multi-channel pipettors and commonly used 8- and 12-pin liquid handling robots
• Scalable—resolve up to 192 samples in one run by combining up to four E-Base Mother and E-Base Daughter device units
• Less hazardous choice—contains SYBR Safe DNA stain, a less hazardous alternative to ethidium bromide
• High performance—detect 3 ng of sample DNA with separation time as little as ∼20 minutesLess hazardous optionChoose gels with SYBR Safe DNA stain to minimize exposure to hazardous and mutagenic factors such as ethidium bromide and UV. Precast E-Gel agarose gels with SYBR Safe stain, combined with a blue-light trans-illumination, offer better sample integrity and a less hazardous work environment. Unlike ethidium bromide, the DNA stain most commonly incorporated into agarose gels, SYBR Safe DNA Gel Stain is a non-toxic, non-mutagenic DNA stain that is less hazardous for the user, less hazardous for the environment, and can save institutional overhead costs for disposal.Fast and convenient analysisE-Gel agarose gels enable fast and high-performance analysis with a detection sensitivity of 3 ng sample DNA per band and a separation time three times faster than that of conventional pour-your-own gels. Each E-Gel agarose gel contains agarose, electrodes, SYBR Safe DNA stain, and a bufferless ion exchange system packaged inside a dry disposable cassette. E-Gel technology does not require any gel or buffer preparation or gel staining steps. Just load your samples and run.Running and imaging devicesHigh-throughput E-Gel agarose gels require the Invitrogen E-Base Electrophoresis Device for gel running.Available in a variety of gel formatsE-Gel agarose gels are available in variety of gel percentage, stain, and well formats. The high-throughput E-Gel 96 and 48 agarose gels with SYBR Safe stain are available in 1%, 2%, and 4% gel percentages.
