GEL PLATE [5 records]

Record 1 2013-01-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Analytical Chemistry
CONT

Thin-layer gel chromatography... is a technique utilizing the flat bed of gel supported by a plate of glass, metal or plastics. The experimental arrangement... is similar to conventional thin-layer chromatography, but the wet gel beds are most often used, gravitation is employed for the generation of flow instead of capillary elevation.

CONT

Starch gel electrophoresis has been a popular technique, although it is now somewhat superseded by the use of polyacrylamide gels, which minimize convection and diffusion effects. A block or "plate" of starch gel is prepared, and the sample is applied in a narrow band(line) across the block about midway between the ends, which are contacted with electrodes through a connecting bridge. When current is passed through the cell, the different components of a mixture move with velocities that depend on their electric charges, their sizes, and their shapes. As electrophoresis proceeds, the negatively charged components migrate toward the anode and the positively charged components migrate toward the cathode. The result is a series of separated bands or lines of sample constituents, such as visualized by a stain.

OBS

Recently considerable progress has been made in assaying alleles, or variants, of some 15 genes that code for enzyme sysnthesis, which is readily detected by starch-gel electrophoresis.

LKB Macromould Gel Casting Unit : Sliding-plate technique allows creation of a bubble-free gel as thin as 0. 1 mm. To cast a gel, a lower fixed plate(the thermostatic plate of the Macrophor unit, if the gel is for that system) is laid on the casting table with spacers of desired thickness clamped along the edge.

Unité de coulage de gel Macromould LKB : La technique de la plaque glissante permet de donner un gel exempt de bulles et dont la minceur atteint 0.1 mm. Pour couler un gel, une plaque fixe inférieure (la plaque thermostatique du Macrophor si le gel s'applique à ce système) est déposée sur la table de coulage avec des espaceurs de l'épaisseur désirée fixés à l'aide de pinces le long du rebord.

OBS

To cast a gel, a lower fixed plate... is laid on the casting table [of the LKB Macromould Gel Casting Unit] with spacers of desired thickness clamped along the edge. A notched glass plate is placed so that it rests on the support and overlaps the lower plate by 2 to 3 cm. In one continuous movement, the gel solution is poured into the notch at the same time as the upper plate is pushed over the lower one. The solution fills the gap between the plates by capillary action....

Pour couler un gel, une plaque fixe inférieure (...) est déposée sur la table de coulage (de l'unité de coulage de gel Macromould LKB] avec des espaceurs de l'épaisseur désirée fixés à l'aide de pinces le long du rebord. Une plaque de verre à rainures est placée de façon qu'elle repose sur le support et déborde la plaque inférieure de 2 à 3 cm. Dans un mouvement continu, on verse la solution dans la rainure (...). La solution remplit l'espace entre les plaques (...).
