Labnet ENDURO* VE20 Vertical Gel Electrophoresis System

Labnet ENDURO VE20 large format vertical gel electrophoresis system. Designed to perform a variety of separations, including first and second-dimension SDS-PAGE, native, preparative, radient, high-resolution nucleic acid electrophoresis and electroblotting.

The VE20 distinguishes itself in its flexibility of applications, ease of gel casting and set-up requiring only 4 screws to secure 4 (16 x 17.5 cm) gels. The VE20 vertical screw-clamp configuration distributes pressure evenly along the height of the gel rather than in the center to eliminate plate bowing and gel compression. The new configuration still maintains a leak-proof seal during casting; while the ergonomic wave-like design of the PAGE insert aids both handling and set up.

Whether it is running 2 or 4 gels, electroblotting or IEF using IPG strips, all of these techniques may be performed using the same base unit while retaining the benefits provided by large format electrophoresis, such as extended separation distances, greater sample throughput and superior resolution.
