Recently introduced by Cleaver Scientific, the Msscreen Flexicaster is designed to overcome the problems associated with casting large horizontal gels for DNA and RNA electrophoresis applications.
The instrument's clamping design means that the gel trays remains completely level during the casting process to ensure accurate band migration, even when gels are poured at temperatures as high as 80C.
The Msscreen's gel tanks, which have a capacity of up to 672 samples, are suitable for separating large numbers of nucleic acid samples from PCR reactions or cloning.
Their maximum run length of 32cm means these tanks are suitable for very high resolution separations of restriction fragments.
Cleaver Scientific now offers the Flexicaster free of charge with every Msscreen gel tank purchased and no additional accessories are needed.
The Msscreen Flexicaster can also be used for casting gels from other electrophoresis units with gel lengths of 7, 10, 15, 16, 17, 20, 24, 25 and 32cm.
