40 HORIZONTAL GEL S YSTEMS HORIZONTAL GEL S YSTEMS 41 ordering information Cleaver Scientific also provides a comprehensive range of 'wet' cellulose acetate gels, consumables and diagnostic kits. These include: CellasGEL - 'wet' cellulose acetate gels CellasGEL 'wet' cellulose acetate gel strips are ready to use and overcome many of limitations of traditional 'dry' cellulose acetate membranes. CellasGEL's advantages over dry cellulose acetate membranes are as follows: 1. Wet state - unlike dry membranes, CellasGEL is a cellulose acetate film produced in a wet form to facilitate buffer adsorption, but without the entrapment of air bubbles that inhibit electrophoresis 2. Greater thickness - CellasGEL's greater thickness (190500 pm) compared to dry membranes (160-190 pm) allows application of larger sample volumes to enhance detection of poor quality specimens low in protein content 3. High resolution - samples may be applied to CellasGEL as wider but finer bands, without risk of diffusion, to make band quantitation more reproducible; this is further enhanced by extended migration distances (60-70mm) that improve band separation 4. Amphiphilic - CellasGEL's lipophilic and hydrophilic properties make it the perfect separation medium for many different biological molecules, ranging from lipoproteins to haemoglobins CellasGEL is supplied either as individual packs of 25 or 100 strips or within clinical test kits for the following applications: • Immunofixation Electrophoresis (IFE): Monoclonal Gammopathies of Undetermined Significance (MGUS); Multiple Myeloma (MM) • Serum Protein Analysis: Dysproteinaemia; Incipient Gammopathies • Haemoglobin Analysis: Haemoglobinopathies such as Thalassaemias and Sickle Cell Disorders • Lipoprotein Analysis: Hyperlipidaemias; High-density (HDL), Low-density (LDL) and Very-low-density (VLDL) lipoprotein evaluation Other gels, membranes, strips, bridges & applicators available - PLEASE ENQUIRE VISIT WWW.CLEAVERSCIENTIFIC.CO.uk OR CALL +44 (0) 1788 565300 FOR MORE INFORMATION FEATURES : • Compact high resolution system for clinical electrophoresis • Accommodates strips and gels up to 24x20cm • Complete range of cellulose acetate gels and kits • Densitometer software and scanner available Clinical Electrophoresis Cellulose acetate electrophoresis is acetate electrophoresis applications. an important technique in clinical The CellasGEL range includes both diagnostics. Cleaver Scientific's equipment and consumables to assist CellasGEL range is a complete solution in the research and diagnosis of specific for research and clinical cellulose disease states. Cellas Electrophoresis System The ideal tank for standard 'dry' membrane and 'wet' gel cellulose acetate techniques, the Cellas electrophoresis system is designed and built to our high quality standard to address both routine clinical and research requirements. Two adjustable supports, which can be positioned anywhere within the tank, readily accommodate different lengths of dry cellulose acetate membrane to a maximum 20cm.
