FAQs of Horizontal Electrophoresis System, Biphoretics:
Q: How does the lid interlock safety feature protect users during electrophoresis runs?
A: The lid interlock disables the electrical current when the lid is removed, preventing accidental exposure to live voltage and ensuring user safety every time gels are loaded or removed.
Q: What types of gels and tray sizes are compatible with the Biphoretics HE-100?
A: The system is optimized for agarose gels and comes with three interchangeable trays (7x7, 10x7, and 15x7 cm), offering flexibility for various sample numbers and separation requirements in molecular biology workflows.
Q: When should the cooling system be used, and what temperature range does it support?
A: The optional cooling system is recommended for longer runs or high-voltage settings to maintain gel integrity. The system supports ambient to 60C operation, helping prevent heat-induced artifacts during electrophoresis.
Q: What is the capacity and sample range per run with different combs?
A: Depending on the comb selection, the system can process between 8 and 112 samples per electrophoresis run, making it highly versatile for both small-scale and large-scale DNA/RNA analyses.
Q: How is voltage accuracy ensured and adjusted during use?
A: Voltage is adjustable from 10 to 150 V with an accuracy of 1%, easily monitored on the digital LED display for precise and reproducible electrophoresis results.
Q: Which laboratories and applications benefit most from this electrophoresis system?
A: This system is suitable for molecular biology, diagnostics, and teaching laboratories that routinely perform DNA/RNA separation, genetic analysis, or educational demonstrations and require safety, reliability, and high sample throughput.
Q: What accessories and support are provided with the system purchase?
A: Accessories included are multiple combs, casting stands, power cords, and UV-compatible trays. Service support is available upon request through authorized distributors in India.
