Fig. 1.1. Model 111 Mini IEF Cell. Outer chamber (1), sliding, interlocking lid with power cables (2), graphite
electrodes (3), casting tray (4), glass plates (5), sample templates (6), gel support film (7), and 5 ml Bio-Lyte
3/10 ampholyte (8).
1.5 Capillary Thin Layer Gel Casting Tray
The Capillary Thin Layer Gel Casting Tray provides the fastest and easiest method for casting
electrofocusing gels.
The casting tray consists of an acrylic plate with precisely defined spacers of 0.4 mm
thickness as shown in Figure 1.2. The acrylic surface imparts a slight inhibitory effect on
acrylamide polymerization, eliminating sticking and tearing of the gel.
