Owl™ EasyCast™ B1A Mini Gel Electrophoresis System: Precision and Efficiency for Gel Electrophoresis
The Thermo Scientific™ Owl™ EasyCast™ B1A Mini Gel Electrophoresis System is designed to meet the needs of laboratories that require precision, efficiency, and flexibility in their DNA analysis workflows. This compact system allows users to cast and run gels in the same buffer chamber, eliminating the hassle of multiple setups and additional casting equipment. Whether you're determining the molecular weight ranges of PCR fragments or analyzing larger DNA molecules, this system delivers consistent and reliable results every time.
One of the key features of the EasyCast™ B1A is its dual comb slots, which allow you to double your sample capacity. With the ability to run two series of samples at equal distances simultaneously, you can process more data in less time, optimizing your workflow. The system supports anywhere from 5 to 24 samples, offering flexibility for small or large batch processing.
The UVT gel trays are another innovative feature, designed with a fluorescent ruler silkscreened onto the tray for easy measurement of bands under UV light. This ensures accurate sizing of DNA molecules and enhances the efficiency of data analysis. The trays are made from a highly durable material that can withstand repeated use, providing long-lasting performance in the lab.
One of the standout aspects of the EasyCast™ B1A is its leakproof casting technology. This all-in-one system allows you to cast and run gels in the same chamber without the need for tape, grease, or agarose seals, simplifying the gel electrophoresis process. The ability to perform these tasks in a single chamber not only saves time but also reduces the risk of contamination or errors, ensuring more reliable results.
With a buffer capacity of 400 mL, the EasyCast™ B1A can accommodate a wide range of sample volumes, making it suitable for various experimental needs. The system’s compact dimensions (16 x 10.5 x 9.5 cm) make it an ideal choice for laboratories with limited bench space, while still providing ample room to cast gels up to 7 x 8 cm.
Operating at voltages ranging from 20 to 150 volts, the EasyCast™ B1A offers flexibility in the electrophoresis process, enabling you to tailor the run conditions based on the specific requirements of your experiments. The system is also CE marked, indicating compliance with European safety and environmental standards, providing additional peace of mind.
With a fast runtime of 15 to 60 minutes, the EasyCast™ B1A allows you to quickly generate results, making it ideal for time-sensitive experiments. The ease of use and high reproducibility of this system make it an essential tool for any laboratory engaged in molecular biology or DNA research.
In summary, the Owl™ EasyCast™ B1A Mini Gel Electrophoresis System is a versatile, user-friendly, and efficient tool for laboratories focused on DNA analysis. Its combination of innovative features, such as dual comb slots, UVT gel trays, and leakproof casting, ensures high-quality, reproducible results with minimal effort.
