The Double Gel Electrophoresis Apparatus (Product Code: SLE/BL/29) is a horizontal gel tank that runs two gels at the same time, so two student groups can share one unit or a class can compare two sets of samples in a single session. Its leak-free, one-piece moulded chamber is made of durable clear acrylic and fitted with pure platinum electrodes, and a lid interlock prevents use until the lid is locked in place. Schools, colleges and biotechnology teaching labs use it as a complete gel electrophoresis kit for DNA and dye separation practicals. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Students place a comb in one of the specially designed casting trays and pour melted agarose straight in – no taping of the tray ends is needed. Setting the comb at the end of the gel suits DNA, which moves in one direction, while a centre position lets charged dyes of opposite sign migrate both ways from the wells. Once set, the combs are lifted out, the trays go into the tank, running buffer is added, and samples are loaded into the 12 wells of each gel with a micropipette.
With the lid locked and the patch cords connected to a suitable power supply, both gels run together, which halves the time needed to get a whole class through the practical. In a biotechnology lab kit setting this makes it practical to compare, for example, a sample and a reference side by side. Rinse the chamber with water after use, avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners on the acrylic, and handle the platinum electrode wires gently when cleaning.
ScienceLab is the trade name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, an Ambala, Haryana manufacturer of biology, biotechnology and physics teaching apparatus. Its electrophoresis equipment is used by schools, colleges and training labs in India and international markets – more on our company profile.

What comes in the box?
The acrylic gel chamber with platinum electrodes, two casting gel trays, six 12-well forming combs and patch cords.
Is a power supply included?
No. The power supply is purchased separately; our Electrophoresis Power Supply is designed for this type of chamber.
What size gels does it make?
Each casting tray measures 100 mm (L) x 75 mm (W), and the tank is 155 mm (L) x 88 mm (W) x 62.5 mm (H).
Do I need tape to cast gels?
No. The casting trays hold melted agarose without tape or snap-on ends, which saves time and reduces leaks.
How does the safety interlock work?
The chamber is designed so students cannot use it unless the lid is locked in place, keeping fingers away from the electrodes and buffer while current flows.
Is a warranty or calibration certificate available?
Warranty terms are included in each quotation, and any documentation needs should be discussed with us through the contact page.
What should a lab quotation request include?
The product code SLE/BL/29, number of units, whether you also need power supplies and micropipettes, and the delivery location. We supply India and international markets.
