UNIQUE GEL COOLING SYSTEM

EASY CLICK LID REMOVAL

The multiSUB series of Horizontal Gel Units offers the most versatile solution for DNAand RNA agarose gel electrophoresis currently available. All five units offer an unsurpassedcombination of economy of gel and buffer volume, with gel size and sample number versatility. Gel size

and sample number requirements can be exactly matched in each unit, with the option of additional gel

tray sizes. This eliminates the need for multiple gel tanks for changes in gel size or application.

All units feature removable UV transparent trays. For optimum value and versatility, systems are

available with one, two or three tray options (dependent on model). Easy to use, leak proof ‘plug and go’

gel casting dams are included as standard to allow gels to be rapidly cast whilst the multiSUB unit is in

use for gel running. With no indentations or casting gate grooves in the tray to interfere with sample

progression, traditional tape casting can be used, should this be preferred.Although lid connectors are compatible with most major power supplies, adapters are available toprovide complete compatibility.

COMET

ASSAY

12

The single cell gel electrophoresis assay(also known as the Comet assay) is asimple, rapid and sensitive technique foranalysing and quantifying DNA damagein individual mammalian (and to someextent prokaryotic) cells. COMET assaytanks are specifically designed to minimiseexposure to light and reduce background DNAdamage. Previously, units designed for standardelectrophoresis have been used which with theirclear construction have not offered an easy touse system.

Constructed from Ebony acrylic to prevent UVdegradation, the slides sit on a cooling platformwhich can be connected to a water supply orchiller for active temperature control and cooling.

These UV Sterilisation Cabinets provide aconvenient area for setting up PCR reactions ina nucleic acid free environment thus limitingPCR reaction contamination.

Acting effectively as a low cost alternative to a clean room,the powerful UV lights on each cabinet denatures nucleicacids in 5 to 30 minutes making them unsuitable foramplification. The cabinets incorporate safety features toprevent user-exposure to UV light.

The UV lights are timer controlled and there are safetyswitches on the cabinet doors which power off the UVlights when opened. The units’ white light provide excellentvisibility when working within the cabinet.

Constructed from 10mm acrylic, the cabinets also act asefficient shields from beta radioactive emissions and cantherefore be safely used with isotopes such as 32P.

Two models are available, Maxi as shown adjacent, and anew Mini Cabinet for limited budget and bench space.

Safety SpillTrays and Liners of size 68 x 54cm, provideconvenient containment of spillage (not included withcabinet).

The omniPAGE range of Vertical Gel Units combines ease of use with high resolutionseparations. Three sizes, Mini 10 x 10cm, Mini Wide 20 x 10cm and Maxi 20 x 20cm, share a host ofcommon features including a guaranteed leak proof seal required for trouble free, rapid anduncomplicated gel casting. Utilising a built in gel running module eliminates time consuming transfer ofglass plates during casting, a process which can cause gel damage and misalignment. Glass plateswith permanently bonded spacers guarantee perfect spacer alignment. The glass plate sandwich issimply inserted between pressure bars and sealed using either the NEW sliding gates system (as shownadjacent) or a minimum of screws tightened – only one screw per side for omniPAGE Mini. This ensuresfast set up times while even pressure bars and ultra soft seals guarantee leak proof casting. Once thegel has polymerised, the gel running module is simply inserted into the gel tank for electrophoresis.

colorimetric protein stainsDyeHard is a new Coomassie Blue polymer stain whose sensitivity is comparable to silver stain. Its high protein-bindingaffinity and specificity allows detection of as little as 3ng protein with minimal background. Staining with DyeHard isfaster and more convenient than standard Coomassie, since no destain is required. DyeHard is also cost-effective,odourless and easy to dispose within the laboratory.

fluorescent protein stainsThese three new fluorescent stains for protein detection that are both pvreversible and morve sensitive than many of theprotein stains currently on the market. Available in blue, green and red colours as BCblue, BCgreen and BCred, theseprotein stains can detect a minimum vetre of gel. Staining and destaining times are comparable to those required forstandard Coomassie and SYPRO Ruby, while each gel may be visualised using a UV transilluminator and visible lightfilter. Each stain’s metal chelate composition guarantees stability without loss of sensitivity for at least 1 year if storedwithin the refrigerator.

The omniPAGE-DGGE denaturinggradient gel electrophoresis unit can runtwo 20 x 20cm polyacrylamide gels for thedetection of single base changes andpolymorphisms in cloned or amplified DNAfragments. It is ideal for the study ofmutations and DNA polymorphisms criticalin disease. This system is primarily forparallel denaturing gradientelectrophoresis.

The full range of "DGGE" analysis can beperformed in this unit. DuringDenaturing Gradient GelElectrophoresis, "DGGE", the buffer inthe unit is heated using a 400-wattheater and the temperature controlledby an external temperature controlconnected to an internal sensor. Thisallows the gel temperature to be set to themelting temperature (Tm) of the amplifiedDNA polymorphism mutation of interest.

The temperature can be adjusted in 1°Cincrements up to a maximum temperature of 70°C, so thefull range of DGGE analysis can be performed in this unit.The unit contains all the features of the successful

omniPAGE series and uses the same user-friendly gelcasting system. OmniPAGE-DGGE uses all combs andaccessories of omniPAGE Maxi, shown on page 18.

The omniPAGE mini wide verticalgel unit, with a gel width of 20cm,effectively allows double the numberof samples to be resolved as theomniPAGE mini unit.

This allows consistency of samplecomparison on a single gel and is designedfor those with greater than 20 samples tocompare and resolve. Simple set up usingultra soft silicone seals guarantees troublefree glass plate loading and gel casting.

Dual gaskets on the gel running insert alongwith notched and plain glass plates ensureleak proof gel running. Rapid set up coolingretains resolution in extended separationsand also saves on buffer volume withoutaffecting run quality.

4mm thick glass plates reduce breakageand have bonded spacers for addedconvenience. A wide range of accessories isavailable allowing many techniques to beperformed using the same unit. Prep combscan be used to maximise sample loadingand recovery. Accessory electroblotting andtube gel modules are available which usethe same outer tank and lid.

Advance casting of multiple mini and maxi gels

can help to achieve consistent results between

runs. These multiple gel casting systemsare tailored for use with omniPAGE mini and

omniPAGE maxi vertical electrophoresis units;

with three models of 6, 12 and 24 gel capacities.

Fewer gels can be poured if required using the

acrylic saver blocks supplied with each system.

The fixed hinged clamps allows the gel sandwich

to be adjusted to the correct pressure irrespective

of the number or the thickness of gels being

poured. Separation sheets allow the easy

separation of the glass plates after pouring.

Designed primarily for wet electroblotting ofproteins, EBLOT Electroblotters offer acombination of increased capacity witheconomy saving features. Both units, Mini 10 x10cm and Maxi 20 x 20cm, have increased capacityover standard systems with up to five gel blotcassettes utilised at any one time. This is especiallyuseful in high throughput laboratories.

A uniform electric field is provided by a high intensitycoiled electrode and ensures uniform transfer acrossthe blot surface. The cassette’s open architectureensures the maximum blot area allows direct transferof current. Its rigid construction ensures contactbetween the gel and membrane is retainedthroughout the blot and an even pressure ismaintained. These units are compatible with magneticstirrers to aid heat dispersal and prevent pH drifts inthe buffer due to incomplete buffer mixing. Eachsystem includes a cooling pack to further enhancetransfer efficiency by removing excess heat. This alsosaves on buffer for added economy.

These Semi Dry Blotters offer rapidtransfer times for DNA, RNA and proteinblotting - typically 15 to 30 minutes. Allunits can be used for all types of blotting:western, southern and northern via uncomplicated buffer and set up procedures and are compatible with gelthicknesses from 0.25 up to 10mm without the need foradditional equipment. Each unit is compatible with theirrespective omniPAGE vertical gel system.

Semi Dry Blotting has the added benefit of economictransfers due to very low buffer volumes – typically only afew millilitres of buffer are required per transfer. These Semi-Dry Blotters utilise a screw down lid, which secures the blotsandwich and allows complete control of pressure ensuringeven transfer. The electrodes, comprising platinum coatedanode and stainless steel cathode, will exhibit practically nocorrosion and so provide many years of trouble free use.

Uniform heat dispersion across the blot sandwich ensuresstable transfer times and no heat induced sample loss ortransfer distortions. Being translucent, it allows viewing ofthe blot sandwich to ensure correct positioning andtransfer is occurring correctly. Electrode plates are fullyseparated to prevent arching or damage.

Dot Blot and Slot Blot microfiltrationmanifolds are designed for DNA andRNA filter blot hybridisations andimmunological (Ag/Ab) screeningapplications. Machined from high densityacrylic, their precision lapped matingsurfaces and leak proof gasket ensuresuniform filter contact, so preventing lateraltransfer of samples – smudging – byensuring that a complete vacuum is formed.Assembly of the manifolds is simply byaligning the mating surfaces and tighteningthe stainless steel thumb screws. Apermanent filter template is provided witheach manifold to simplify the cutting of filtersto the exact size. A vacuum of approximately600mm Hg (0.8 Bar) is required duringsample application.

Four configurations are available for 24 & 48for slots and 48 & 96 wells for dots in theconfiguration of standard microplates. Eachwell is alpha-numerically grid referenced foreasy identification.

All Consort Maxi Series (EV200) Power Suppliesexcept the EV243 have four output terminals toallow four simultaneous runs. Model EV243 Minipower supply has a smaller footprint and three outputterminals. While the powerful microprocessor allowscomplex programming, the Manual mode permits thesetting of voltage, current, power and time for a routineelectrophoresis run. Parameters can be changedtemporarily without interrupting the run.

Programming - up to 9 different programs, each with9 steps, can be stored in the non-volatile memory forfuture recall.

Timer - can be set to automatically terminate the runand sound an alarm when the allocated time or volthours has elapsed.

Automatic cross-over - each model has constantvoltage, constant current and constant power capabilitieswith automatic cross-over while showing which parameteris kept constant.

Automatic recovery after mains failure - afterrestoration of power, the instrument will automaticallycontinue the run for the remaining time.

Data Transfer - optional data acquisition/control softwarefor PC is available to visualise and examine the stored rundetails, store and program the methods, add notes to the run,identify the unit, copy or delete programs in the unit's memory.

Safety precautions - the AC line is automaticallydisconnected from the high voltage transformer when aground leakage path is detected protecting the user frompotential shock. Other safety features include protectionagainst any overload including accidental short circuit ofthe output and voltage increases smoothly.

This Consort Mini power supply covers the idealvoltage range generally used with smallelectrophoresis units. Small enough to occupy verylittle bench space, it is portable and has a variety ofadditional features:-

Manual Set-up - voltage, current and powersettings can be adjusted during the run.

Voltage ramp - this allows a linear voltagegradient for any step to be programmed.

Automatic recovery after power failure.

Data-logging, Transfer and Remote control.

Storage of the run progression - stores the runprogression details and allows analysis by transferof data to a PC. The power supply can additionallybe controlled by a PC.

MiniMix combines the motions of orbitalshaking and rocking to produce a gentle,but thorough, 3-D action that is perfectfor antibody incubation of western blotsand staining gels.

The pitch and speed of MiniMix areoptimised to generate a tilt angle that islarge enough to ensure uniformdistribution of solutions, yet small enoughto prevent the centre of the blot fromdrying out. This has the added benefit ofallowing users to work with minimalvolumes, thus conserving valuableprobes and antibodies.

A non-slip rubber mat keeps the boxes inplace on the agitating platform, which,along with the housing, is very easy toclean and decontaminate after use. TheMiniMix’s compact and light weightdesign allows it to be moved around thelab where needed. It is also safe for usein an incubator or cold room fortemperature controlled reactions.

DENVILLE260D

The Denville 260D incorporates all the mostrequested features in a single affordablemicrocentrifuge. The 260D is the quietestcentrifuge in its class when used with either of its45° angle rotors. These 45° angle rotors acceptall types of 1.5ml and 2.2ml tubes, includingscrew-top and self-standing "skirted" tubes. Anew strip rotor accepts 0.2ml PCR 8-strips orstandard 1.5ml tubes. All angle rotors areautoclavable and are supplied with apolypropylene cover that “snaps" on or off easilywith one hand.

With its efficient ventilation system, the unitremains cool during repetitive and prolongedoperation. Incorporating a self-cooling ventilationsystem, even after successive 30 minute spins,sample temperature will not increase by morethan 4°C. The 260D may be used in a cold room.

Digital display of time and speed with simple "onetouch" keypads make setting of parameters quickand effortless. Speed may be shown in rpm orRCF (g-force) at the touch of a button. The 260Dmay also be used for limited or momentary spins,generating up to 16,000xg (14,000rpm).

The 260D series is covered by a two yearwarranty.

Because of an impermeable moulded aluminium alloyblock construction, each Cube dry bath may also be adapted as a mini water bath incubator if desired.

Both dry baths incorporate a digital microprocessor controller for accurate temperature control in 0.1°C increments fromambient +5°C to 150°C. Rapid and easy programming is facilitated by the easy to use arrow keys on the sloped front panel,while both the temperature and running time are shown simultaneously on the conspicuous dual digital LCD display. Softwareoptions are available for data logging to a PC and computer control (please enquire).

Eight models of Denville XL3000i™Pipettes cover all volumes from 0.1µl upto 10ml. A continuously adjustablevolumeter with digital readout allowssimple and accurate dispensing. Therobust construction along with the lowthermal coefficient of the body of eachXL3000i™ will prevent hand heataffecting sample measurements andreproducibility, even in prolonged usage.Being lighter than many other similarpipettes, they are even more comfortableto hold and operate for extended periods- even in the smallest hand. This featurewill also reduce the incidence of operatorfatigue and Repetitive Strain Injury.

The XL3000i™ requires minimalmaintenance. Its precise, self-lockingstainless steel micrometer accuratelyadjusts the stroke of the polished, acid-resistant stainless steel piston. Eachpiston is machined to very finetolerances which, in conjunction with itsself-lubricating O-ring and PTFE seal,minimises the need for attention. Using aseries of height adapters, the tip ejectorposition on the shaft is adjustable toallow the pipette’s use with virtually allbrands of tips. The user may also choosefrom either of the two supplied ejectorbutton styles to suit their preferredhandling position.

Each model is supplied with its ownindividual certificate of calibration, as aguarantee of the unit’s quality.

This variable speed Vortex Mixer combines fast, efficient mixing with minimalvibration. Unlike other vortex mixers using elliptical orbits, its true circular orbitfacilitates uniform sample-vortexing even at low speed. The CombiCup™

head, which is supplied as standard, accepts many different tubesizes, while the unique overmoulding technology used in itsmanufacture provides a sturdy plastic core with non-slip TPEthat fits optional heads for microplates, microtubes, PCR striptubes, 15ml and 50ml tubes and blood vials.

The unit may be used in ‘touch’ or continuous mode:‘touch’ mode being activated by simply depressing thesample head and then stopped by releasing the pressure.An optimised counter balance system minimises vibrationand movement of the unit during operation, whereas itslightweight construction and small footprint allows it to bereadily transported and used in areas where space is restricted. Theunit is also safe for use in temperature controlled environments, and may be used within acold room.

These hotplates, stirrers and hotplate-stirrers feature an exceptionally durable, chemically resistant, whiteceramic work surface. Their space-efficient design (20 x 23 cm footprint), makes them ideal for use oncrowded bench tops and inside cabinets.

Advanced microprocessor controls with convenient turn knobs allow quick, precise adjustment andmaintenance of speed and temperature.

SafeCloner is a new tool for safe UV-freevisualisation of DNA gels stained withethidium bromide, SYBR Safe and SYBRgreen. SafeCloner’s special filter glassesand blue epi-LED illuminator allow theoperator to view DNA gels at greatercontrast and sensitivity than is possiblewith standard long wavelength UVtransilluminators. Blue epi-LEDillumination of gels is entirely harmless toDNA and operator alike, ensuring that theDNA within the gel remains free of UV-induced damage. Consequently, DNAfragments isolated from gels viewed usingSafeCloner have dramatically improvedcloning efficiency compared to DNAfragments eluted from UV-illuminatedgels.
