General Information
1.1 Introduction
The Adjustable Slab Gel Systems offered by C.B.S. Scientific are designed to meet a wide variety
of applications. These systems are designed for separating and characterizing protein and can
be adapted for short nucleic acid sequencing runs with the appropriate accessories. The Dual
systems allow two gels to be run simultaneously under identical buffer conditions and also
provides the flexibility of running gels from 145mm to 400mm (U.S. version, Cat. # DASG-250 or
DASG-400) or 160mm to 280mm (European version, Cat. # DASG-250-02). The single systems
provide the flexibility of running gels in lengths from 145mm to 400mm (U.S. version, Cat. # ASG-
250 or ASG-400) or 160mm to 280mm (European version, Cat. # ASG-250-02). Gel casting can
be accomplished using our convenient and unique Gel Wrap, or by using our multiple gel
casting chambers (see Section 6, Adjustable/Dual Adjustable Slab Gel Kits and Accessories).
Other applications include; mobility shift assays, antibody super shift assays, Rnase protection
assays, DNA footprinting, differential display, DNA paternity testing and forensic analysis.
