The VS20 WAVE 2-D tube gel system provides all necessary components for 2-D electrophoresis using capillary ampholyte tube gels: Interchangeable modular inserts run capillary tube gels for first-dimension IEF and vertical slab gels for second-dimension SDS-PAGE using the same universal tank and lid Detachable cooling coil, which connects to the laboratory water supply or a recirculating chiller, enables application of high voltages to achieve precise, high-resolution focusing for pI determination Focus up to 10 first-dimension IEF tube gels within a single run using the dedicated 2-D insert, or use included blanking ports to run fewer gels if preferred Run up to four 20x20cm second-dimension slab gels using specially adapted notched glass plates with bonded 2-D spacers to accommodate 18cm tube gels System may also be used for 18cm IPG strips resolved in the first-dimension on the CSL-IEF flat-bed IEF system Two 24-sample 1mm combs included for routine SDS-PAGE techniquesPackage includes: WAVE Maxi Tube Gel insert Glass tubes Blanking ports IEF Conversion Kit for 18cm IPG strips and tube gels,includes: 1 set of plain glass plates with bonded spacers, 0.6x20cm (w x h); and 2x 2-Dcombs with one 3.5mm marker lane and one 18cm preparatory well
