Benefits include:

• Single gel tray with fluorescent
• numbering - allows up to 96 SSPs to be loaded directly onto the tray, so that each SSP is automatically numbered for gel photography, simplifying post-electrophoretic analysis
• 6 comb slots - positioned at 25mm intervals along the gel tray allow SSPs to be separated in less than 30 minutes using the appropriate running conditions (see Technical Specification)
• Six 17-sample combs - with each marker lane positioned centrally - enables SSPs to be loaded onto the gel quickly, 8 at a time by multi-channel pipette
• Compact tank - reduces the buffer volume required to cover the gel, providing greater control over the voltage gradient and run-time
• Robust acrylic casting tray - UV-transparent for visualisation with fluorescent numbering for SNP recognition and traceability
• Ideal for use - either with 96-well microtitre plates or 96-well blocks of thermal cyclers
