Consistent, Reliable Protein SeparationExperience high-quality protein separation with Mini-PROTEAN TGX Precast Protein Gels. Each gel is engineered for reproducible electrophoresis performance, ensuring accuracy across experiments. With a broad measurement range of 10-250 kDa and uniform gel thickness, your results maintain integrity and comparability every run.
Time-Saving, Ready-to-Use DesignStreamline your workflow with precast gels that are factory-ready for immediate use. Eliminate the hassle of gel preparation and accelerate your experiments: simply load your samples and start your run. The gels operate effectively within 10-45 minute run times, giving you fast, efficient separation for protein analysis or downstream Western blotting.
Optimized for Versatility and ConvenienceIntended for use in most laboratory environments, these gels are compatible exclusively with Bio-Rad Mini-PROTEAN systems. Clear, portable, and easy to store at 2-8C, each gel arrives in individual packs or multipacks, making them practical for labs of all sizes in India. Their long shelf life and silent, manual operation suit regular and advanced protein analysis needs.
FAQ's of BioRad Mini-PROTEAN TGX Precast Protein Gels, 10%:
Q: How do I use the Mini-PROTEAN TGX Precast Protein Gels for protein separation?
A: To use, insert the gel cassette into the Bio-Rad Mini-PROTEAN electrophoresis system, load up to 60 l of prepared protein sample per well, add running buffer, and run your protocol. The gels separate proteins in the 10-250 kDa range within 10-45 minutes.
Q: What types of applications are these gels suitable for?
A: These gels are designed for a range of protein analysis applications, including SDS-PAGE separation, Western blotting, and quantitation, allowing precise work with a wide variety of molecular weights.
Q: When should I use 10% polyacrylamide gels?
A: Use 10% gels when your protein targets fall within the 10-250 kDa range-ideal for most standard protein separations and situations requiring balanced resolution for small and medium-sized proteins.
Q: Where should I store these gels and how long is their shelf life?
A: Store the gels at 2-8C (refrigerated) without freezing to maintain quality. The typical shelf life is 12 months from the date of manufacture, as indicated on the packaging.
Q: What are the benefits of using precast TGX gels compared to hand-cast gels?
A: Precast TGX gels offer convenience, high reproducibility, and minimize user error associated with gel casting. They produce reliable, consistent results, saving significant preparation time and supporting precise protein analysis.
Q: What volume of sample can each well accommodate, and how many samples can I run simultaneously?
A: Each gel contains 10 wells, each capable of holding up to 60 l of sample. This allows you to analyze multiple samples, standards, or replicates in a single run.
Q: Are these gels hazardous or do they require special handling?
A: No, Mini-PROTEAN TGX Precast Gels are non-hazardous and do not require special handling beyond standard laboratory safety and refrigeration. Do not freeze the gels to avoid compromising their performance.
