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:
The present invention relates to a method for target protein normalization, especially for Western blotting applications. More closely, the invention relates to a method for normalizing target protein signals, after electrophoresis and Western blotting, against variations of sample load or cell number between different lanes or within the same lane on an electrophoretic gel. The signals are normalized against the total protein signal (=ratio between target protein/total protein) or reference protein band signal(s) (=ratio between target protein/reference protein band).According to the invention multiplex and quantitative assessments are possible, such as quantitative comparison between target proteins in different samples.
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 gel unit comprising a flat gel member with an upper and a lower face and a sample separation zone, wherein the gel member is attached to a rigid support arranged to preserve the shape of and to facilitate handling of the gel member, wherein the rigid support is formed to allow access to a section of both the upper and lower face of the gel member essentially corresponding to the separation zone.
