The VWR® PerfectBlue Horizontal Electrophoresis Systems are designed to offer reliable, high-performance nucleic acid separation across a wide range of laboratory scales—from small-format teaching labs to high-throughput research facilities. The systems are built for durability, user convenience, and consistent results, making them ideal for routine DNA and RNA gel electrophoresis, PCR product verification, restriction fragment analysis, and high-density screening applications.
Each system is constructed from robust, leak-resistant acrylic and features embedded platinum electrodes for even current distribution. All models include direct in-tray casting, easy-to-use comb systems, and clear, safety-oriented lids. Many models also feature UV-transmissible gel trays, multichannel pipette-compatible combs, and buffer recirculation systems to ensure optimal run performance and sample clarity.
Whether you're running a few samples or hundreds, the PerfectBlue series provides flexibility, performance, and ease of use at every scale.
