Abstract
An electrophoresis device includes first and second electrode vessels for containing buffer solution and adapted to be connected to poles of a direct current source. A plurality of vertical channels containing carrier medium have opposite ends opening into the first and second electrode vessels. At least one of the electrode vessels has a cavity into which commonly open adjacent ends of the channels. A sealing piece is operable to seal in an airtight manner the cavity and thereby the ends of the channels from the interior of the electrode vessel. A connection extends through the sealing piece to the cavity to connect the cavity and the interiors of the channels to a source of overpressure or underpressure.

A device for conducting electrophoresis for the quantitative determination and/or preparation of chemical substances, said device comprising:
- first and second electrode vessel means for containing buffer solution and adapted to be connected to poles of a direct current source;
- a plurality of substantially vertical channel means for containing carrier medium and having opposite ends opening into said first and second electrode vessel means, first ends of said channel means commonly opening into a cavity;
- means for sealing, in an airtight manner, said cavity and thereby said first ends of said channel means from the interior of the respective said electrode vessel means;
- and
- means for connecting said cavity to a source of overpressure or underpressure.
