GEL POURING
1. Pour the gel into the blocks. Do it carefully to avoid generating bubbles.
2. Place the comb(s) carefully. Make sure there are no air bubbles under the ends of the
comb teeth.
3. Let the gel settle and wait for it to set completely.
4. Pull the comb(s) out carefully and move the tray with the gel into the main tank.
RUNNING THE GEL
1. Put the core inside the bottom tank.
2. Fill both tanks with 1x buffer solution.
3. Load the samples into the wells using pipettes. Be careful not to damage the wells or
induce bubbles.
4. Carefully cover the tank with the lid and connect it to a voltage supply.
5. Run the electrophoresis. Note that gels are typically run under 150-200V. Higher
voltages allow for a faster electrophoresis but with poorer quality results.
