Description
Electrophoresis Tank The electrophoresis tank is a reservoir for the running buffer.
Electrophoresis Cooling Tank The electrophoresis cooling tank has two ceramic cooling
(SSCP only) fingers inside the electrophoresis tank (Figure 3.2). Two
quick-release connectors are connected to an external
chiller to chill the running buffer. The electrophoresis
cooling tank should not be used for heated buffer runs
(i.e., DGGE, CDGE or TTGE).
