The omniPAGE range of Vertical Gel Units combines ease of use with high resolution separations. Two sizes, Mini 10 x 10cm and Maxi 20 x 20cm, share a host of common features including a guaranteed leak proof seal required for trouble free, rapid and uncomplicated gel casting. Utilising a built in gel running module eliminates time consuming transfer of glass plates during casting, a process which can cause gel damage and misalignment within the glass plates. Glass plates with permanently bonded spacers guarantee perfect spacer alignment. The glass plate sandwich is simply inserted between pressure bars and a minimum of screws tightened – only one screw per side for omniPAGE Mini. This ensures fast set up times while even pressure bars and ultra soft seals guarantee leak proof casting. Once the gel has polymerised, the gel running module is simply inserted into the gel tank for electrophoresis.
omniPAGE Mini
The preferred unit for routine mini protein electrophoresis, omniPAGE Mini is constructed using the latest injection moulding manufacturing techniques. This gives a high quality, low cost product with unsurpassed finish, durability and strength.
The unit incorporates a sealing system which is compatible with all major types of 8 x 10cm and 10 x 10cm precast gel.
Gel casting and running utilise the same insert, no transfer of glass plates during gel casting is necessary. The insert contains just one screw per clamping bar side allowing very rapid set up of both hand cast and precast gels. Ultra soft silicone seals and pressure bars which surround the glass plates guarantee leak proof gel casting. 2mm thick glass plates prevent breakage and have bonded spacers for convenience. Accessory electroblotting and tube gel modules are available which use the same outer tank and lid.
Run up to 4 gels at a time - while most vertical gel units can run only one or two gels, the omniPAGE Mini units can run one, two or up to four gels at any time using a triple glass plate sandwich.
Effective buffer cooling - a simple to use cooling pack system ensures enhanced resolution without costly and time consuming additional equipment. No chiller, tap or obstructing connecting leads are required. The cooling pack is simply pre-chilled in a freezer and placed in the gel tank. Additionally, the use of cooling packs reduces buffer volume.
Although lid connectors are compatible with most major power supplies, adapters are available to provide complete compatibility.
