Abstract
A gel electrophoresis apparatus for single cell gel electrophoresis, including a chamber for receiving a gel electrophoresis buffer, a functional cover for closing the chamber, at least one pair of electrodes for generating a homogeneous electric field in the chamber and at least one retaining element for receiving and positioning at least one support plate. The at least one retaining element positions the at least one support plate in the homogeneous electric field generated by the at least one pair of electrodes.
Claims18
A gel electrophoresis device for single cell gel electrophoreses, said gel electrophoresis device comprises:
- a chamber for receiving a gel electrophoresis buffer,
- a lid for closing the chamber,
- at least one electrode pair for producing a homogeneous electrical field in the chamber, and
- at least one retaining element for receiving and positioning at least one carrier plate,
- wherein the at least one retaining element is configured to position the at least one carrier plate in the homogeneous electrical field which is produced by the at least one electrode pair,
- wherein the gel electrophoresis device comprises at least one measuring electrode for measuring an electrical field, said measuring electrode being different from the electrodes of the at least one electrode pair, and
- wherein the gel electrophoresis buffer can flow freely around the carrier plate.
