Abstract:
Electrophoresis gel cassette comprising a cassette housing defining a gel compartment for molding a gel member wherein the gel compartment comprises a fill port at an inlet end of the gel compartment and one or more over-fill ports at a distal end of the gel compartment with respect to a filling direction, and wherein the over-fill port(s) is arranged in fluidic communication with an overfill chamber.
Abstract:
Method of manufacturing an electrophoresis gel cassette with a cassette housing defining a gel compartment for molding a gel member,comprising the steps of: molding in a rigid material a cassette housing member with an external face, an internal face defining at least a section of the gel compartment, and at least one opening for providing access to the gel compartment from the external face, and molding a closing member formed to close the at least one opening of the cassette housing member at the external face, wherein the closing member is molded with the cassette housing member acting partly as mold, and is comprised of an elastic material with non-permanent adhesion to the rigid material to make the closing member selectively removable.

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and systems for eluting and an analyte from a solid phase. The invention further provides methods and systems for transferring liquid analyte reagent mixtures from a solid phase to a second vessel, such as a microtiter plate well. The invention is useful in the manipulation of biological molecules such as nucleic acids, carbohydrates, proteins and peptides. In particular, the invention has utility for manipulating proteins and peptides in isoelectric focusing gels.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a microplate comprised of multiwell strips connected in such a way as to permit the microplate to unfold and to pass in a linear fashion past a fraction collector and then re-fold back into a microplate configuration. Furthermore, the invention provides for the use of the microplates of the invention in a variety of different laboratory methods.
Abstract:
Electrophoresis gel cassette comprising a first and a second face wall member and one or more side wall members, defining a gel compartment for a gel member with a first and second face, wherein the first face wall member has high gel adhesion compared to the second face wall member, whereby a gel member molded in the cassette will stay attached to the high gel adhesion face wall member when the cassette is opened, and wherein the first face wall member is provided with at least one removable section to expose a section of the first face of the gel member, the removable section of the first face wall member having lower gel adhesion compared to the non-removable part of the first face wall member.

Abstract:
Electrophoresis gel cassette comprising a first and a second face wall member and one or more side wall members defining a gel compartment for a gel member with a first and second face, wherein at least a section of each one of the first and second face wall member is removable to expose a section of both the first and second face of the gel member essentially corresponding to the separation zone while the gel member is preserved in the cassette.
Abstract:
Electrophoresis tray arranged to support an electrophoresis cassette for miming electrophoresis experiments, the electrophoresis cassette comprising a gel member in a housing with a front and a back face, wherein the tray comprises a cassette support surface for supporting at least the separation zone of the electrophoresis cassette during electrophoresis, and wherein the cassette support surface is flanked by a pair of buffer pad holders each one arranged to hold a buffer pad in a mating position with respect to buffer connection sections at the back face of the electrophoresis cassette.
