Bioanalyzer

Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent)

The Bioanalyzer is an automated electrophoresis system of DNA, RNA and proteins. Electrophoresis on this equipment allows data processing using a software, showing the classic gel and electropherogram with different bands. Simultaneously quantifies each of the band showing its size, its concentration in ng / microliter and molarity. Electrophoresis takes place on a solid support (chip) that consumes only 1 microliter of sample. This device prevents the development and treatment of the gel with ethidium bromide in the case of DNA electrophoresis and staining and drying of gels in the case of proteins. Molecular weight standards are incorporated in the kit. Protein electrophoresis is always performed under denaturing conditions.
