Gel Sizes and Classifications
  • MEGA class gels are designed primarily for research, where the highest possible resolution and detection is required.
    Overall Dimensions: 16 cm long x 18 cm wide x 0.6 cm thick.
    Corresponding resolving gel is 12 cm x 16.3 cm x 1.5 mm.

    NEW:    Cassettes for sequencing with ultrathin gels (small or large: Stratagene type)

  • MIDI class gels offer a high resolution with rapid run time.
    Overall Dimensions: 9 cm long x 18 cm wide x 0.6 cm thick.
    Corresponding resolving gel is 5.5 cm x 16.3 cm x 1.5 mm.

    MINI CASSETTES (all glass), notched: 8x10cm and 10x10cm with 12 wells comb, or 1 well for the MW Markers in 10x10cm cassettes for 2-D gels.

  • Built-in combs are unique to GELUX™. Individual pre-formed wells are built into each cassette to ensure the integrity of each sample. You can choose the number of wells you need to get the job done.
    27 Wells: Each well holds up to 20 microliters of sample.
    20 Wells: Each well holds up to 30 microliters of sample.
    13 Wells: Each well holds up to 40 microliters of sample.

    12 wells for 8x10 and 10x10cm, 1mm thick gel,  only glass cassettes.

  • Buffer Systems: Choose from TBE, SDS, or Tris-Tricine.

  • Homogeneous (Straight) percentage gels (%T): Choose from any straight percentage from 3% to 27%, and any type of crosslinking: soft or hard gels.

  • Gradient percentage gels (%T): Customize the gradient to any %T between 3% to 27%, and any % of crosslinking: soft or hard gels.

    NEW: For very sensitive proteins we can do photopolymerization!

  • Stacking Gels: Precast differential stacking gel just like you make yourself without the time or fuss.

  • Gel Support: New GELUX™ and GELUX PLUS™ are now available with GelBond® PAG Film. This is a patented, transparent flexible polyester film designed to support polyacrylamide gels. The acrylamide monomers covalently attach to the coating on the film during the polymerization process so that slab gels of any acrylamide concentration can be easily handled without tearing. Gels remain permanently attached to the film through electrophoresis and all subsequent fixing, staining, destaining and drying procedures. Gels retain their original dimensions (except thickness) after drying. Dried gels are suitable for densitometric scanning, autoradiography, projection or permanent mounting in laboratory notebooks.
