Sequencing Unit Model TVS1000 and TVS1400
Single-Plate Large Format Vertical Gel Electrophoresis Units


The single-plate large format vertical gel electrophoresis units are ideal for high-resolution techniques, such as DNA sequencing, DNase and RNase footprinting, and heteroduplex and oligonucleotide analysis, which require longer separation distances. These units are available in two sizes: - 20 x 50 and 33 x 41 (W x H)

Benefits
1. Safety lid - although light weight and easily detachable, the lid cannot be removed during electrophoresis without breaking the electrical circuit
2. Ventilation grille - aids heat dispersal during electrophoresis and can be replaced by the optional thermostatic fan kit (see FHS-KIT)
3. High voltage power cables - oriented asymmetrically for correct polar orientation - with 2mm shrouded output connectors that are universally compatible with modern high voltage power supplies
4. Safety handles - complimented by a new streamlined and light weight design - allow easy transportation around the lab
5. Spring-loaded plate clamps - act in conjunction with counterbalanced silicone gaskets to maintain uniform gel thickness and even distribution of pressure across the 4mm thick float glass plates
6. Aluminium back plate - serves as a heat sink to prevent sample distortion and 'smiling'
7. Lower buffer chamber - clips directly onto the anode and can also be used to drain buffer from the upper chamber
8. Optional FHS-KIT - an adjustable, thermostatically controlled fan kit powered independently to maintain gel temperature
9. Melinex combs and spacers - 0.25 and 0.35mm thick - precision machined for maximum loading accuracy and optimum band resolution

Models
The TVS1000 - long format for 20 x 50cm (W x H) plain and notched glass plates

The TVS1400 - wide format for 33 x 41cm (W x H) plain and notched glass plates, providing increased sample capacity

Specification

Optional FHS-KIT
• Comprises a fan operated by a heat sensor temperature control unit
• Gel temperature is set by manual adjustment of the dial on the front panel of the control unit
• Fan is screwed onto the lid of the TVS1000 or TVS1400 in place of the ventilation grille
• Fan is activated within 4°C of the preset temperature
• Separations performed in less than 2 hours at 55°C at 75W constant power
