The preferred unit for maxi protein electrophoresis, the omniPAGE maxi unit combines convenient ease
of use features with high resolution separations. Simple set up using ultra soft silicone seals guarantees
trouble free glass plate loading and gel casting.
Dual gaskets on the gel running insert along with notched and plain glass plates ensure leak proof gel
running. Rapid set up cooling retains resolution in extended separations and also saves on buffer
volume without affecting run quality.
Glass plates reduce breakage and have bonded spacers for added convenience. A wide range of
accessories is available allowing many techniques to be performed using the same unit. Prep combs
can be used to maximize sample loading and recovery. Accessory electroblotting and tube gel modules
are available which use the same outer tank and lid.
