Gel Electrophoresis Apparatus
Gel Electrophoresis Apparatus (Product Code: SCI-306/08) is a horizontal electrophoresis tank used to separate DNA fragments, dyes and other charged molecules in agarose gels in school, college and biotechnology teaching laboratories. Its tank holds 6 gels together and a gel run is completed in a fast 20 minutes, so a whole class can load and run samples within one practical period. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for institutions seeking a gel electrophoresis kit in India or overseas.

What Is the Gel Electrophoresis Apparatus Used For?
Students cast an agarose gel in a tray, load samples into the wells formed by the comb and then apply a voltage across the buffer. Negatively charged molecules such as DNA migrate towards the positive electrode, and smaller fragments travel further, so a mixture separates into bands. Typical practicals include separating food-colour dyes, DNA fingerprinting simulations and checking the size of amplified DNA in college biotechnology courses.
Level the tank with its adjustable feet before casting so every gel sets to an even thickness, and make sure the gels are fully covered by the buffer. Fit the lid before switching on, since the safety stop will not let the gel run with the cover loose. A lower voltage gives a slower, sharper run, while the higher setting suits short class periods.
What to Specify When Ordering
- The number of tanks for your class size, remembering that each tank runs 6 gels
- Whether a power supply (75 V or 150 V, maximum 250 mA) should be included
- Any extra gel trays, combs, mini pipettes or tips
- The delivery destination for the consignment
