Thermo Scientific™ Owl™ EasyCast™ B1 Mini Gel Electrophoresis Systems

The Thermo Scientific™ Owl™ EasyCast™ B1 Mini Gel Electrophoresis System is an all-in-one system that allows researchers to cast and run gels in the same chamber without the need for additional parts, such as tape. This system is designed with leakproof casting, making it reliable and easy to use. It’s an excellent choice for both students and high-volume researchers due to its durability, ease of use, and ability to handle frequent, routine gel electrophoresis applications.

Key Features & Benefits:

1. Leakproof Casting:
   • No tape or extra parts required for casting, which saves time and minimizes the risk of leaks. The system’s leakproof design simplifies the workflow and reduces contamination risk.
2. Wide Range of Combs:
   • The system includes multiple comb options, providing flexibility in the number of sample wells. It allows you to double the sample capacity by utilizing two comb slots on the gel tray.
3. UVT Gel Tray:
   • The UVT gel tray is silk-screened with a fluorescent ruler, allowing for easy band measurement during electrophoresis, improving accuracy in band size and position assessment.
4. SuperSafe™ Lid with Power Supply Leads:
   • The included Thermo Scientific™ SuperSafe™ lid ensures safe operation by securing the power leads and providing a secure lid closure during the electrophoresis process.
5. Two-Sided Comb System:
   • The system includes two combs: a 10-well and 14-well comb, both double-sided, allowing users to choose the desired sample number per gel and providing flexibility in experimental design.
6. Buffer Exchange Ports:
   • The optional buffer exchange ports (B1-BP) allow for external recirculation pump use, enhancing buffer efficiency and improving separation performance, especially for extended or high-throughput applications.
