The Mini Gel Tank and Blot Module Set is an electrophoresis and blotting system for mini gels. The Mini Gel Tank is a vertical mini-gel electrophoresis system with a unique tank design that has convenient side-by-side gel loading and enhanced viewing during use. The tank can accommodate up to two gels per run with each gel run in its own separate chamber, making it easy to run just one gel. The tank is compatible with all Invitrogen precast mini gels and SureCast handcast gels.

The Mini Blot Module is a wet transfer device used exclusively with the Mini Gel Tank. The tank accommodates one blot module per chamber, or two blot modules total with the side-by-side layout. The universal connection and molded gasket make the blot module easy to use, while the inner core of the blot module allows for use of less methanol-based transfer buffer per wet transfer. At the recommended conditions and constant voltage, proteins can be transferred to nitrocellulose or PVDF membranes typically in 30 to 60 minutes.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can I prepare my protein sample with the reducing agent and store it for future use?

DTT is not stable, so it must be added and the reduction performed just prior to loading your samples.

My LDS or SDS sample buffer precipitates when stored at 4 degrees C. Can I warm it up? Can I store it at room temperature?

Precipitation of the LDS or SDS at 4 degrees C is normal. Bring the buffer to room temperature and mix until the LDS/SDS goes into solution. If you do not want to wait for it to dissolve, you can store the sample buffer at room temperature.

What are the storage conditions for Bolt gels?

Similar to NuPAGE gels with storage temperatures of 4 to 25 degrees C.

Can I use the PowerEase Touch 120W Power Supply for transferring gels with the SureLock Tandem Midi Blot Module, Mini Gel Blot Module, or Novex Semi-Dry Blotter?

No, most transfer applications require high current and therefore, we recommend using a high current power supply like PowerEase Touch 350W Power Supply.

Can I run Bio-Rad gels in the Mini Gel Tank?

No. Bio-Rad gels are of a different size (length, width, and depth) and have a special feature that precludes them from fitting in the Mini Gel Tank.
