The Principle of 6Mgel rapid electrophoresis in only 6 minutes

1x running buffer, a highly conductive liquid, has two functions in conventional submarine agarose gel electrophoresis: keeping the agarose gel cooled and conducting electric current.

 

To avoid gel overheating, the volume of running buffer should be as large as possible. But more buffer conducts more electric current, which generates more heat. So buffer volume should be as small as possible. Which is correct - more buffer or less buffer?

 

  Breakthrough of high speed electrophoresis with no running buffer

  See User Feedback about the performance of buffer-less high speed electrophoresis:

" The Liberty bufferless gel system is the best gel electrophoresis system we've ever used. It's not only easy to set up, robust, and fast, but generates excellent results without the need of running buffer. Highly recommended. See our genotyping service picture below." ---- Ivan Delgado Orlic, President and CEO, Mouse Genotype Co. 

 

 

 

The principle of the 6Mgel invention

The inventor of 6mgel recognized that water is the best and cheapest coolant. The electrical resistance of lab dd-water is 18MΩ, which means that dd-water is an excellent electrical insulator. By simply adding dd-water directly on top of the buffer-containing agarose gel, the desired effects are achieved: gels can be run much faster!  You can add a large volume of dd-water to dissipate heat so that a much higher voltage can be applied to drive faster migration of DNA molecules. Gel smiling is eliminated because the large volume of dd-water in direct contact with the gel maintains even heat distribution. Also, sharper banding occurs due to "stacking effects of dd-water in gel wells.

In 6Mgel, the V/cm in wells is elevated about 3-fold higher than in the gel body, which drives DNA 3 times faster in wells than in the gel body, resulting in sharper bands. Furthermore, consumption of running buffer can be reduced by 50-75%.

 

During the development of 6Mgel, more and more features were added, such as buffer-less high speed electrophoresis, lab-made precast gels for high-speed electrophoresis, and agarose-saving gel systems. Go to 6mgel instruments for more information.

 

Liberty 120 gel instrument operation steps:

1. Select gel length, 48, 88, or 128mm to meet sample quantity and running distance requirement.

2. Pour agarose gel solution into gel tray, place combs into comb slots, and let the agarose gel to set.

3. Remove combs, add 350ml of dd-water on gel top and 200ml of 1x running buffer into buffer reservoir.

4. Load samples into sample wells. Well distance is multi-channel pipette compatible.

5. Run rapid gel electrophoresis at 220V DC for 6-10 minutes depending on your applications.

6. Take gel pictures on UV transilluminator.

Why Biokeystone gel electrophoresis instrument is the best?

In agarose gel electrophoresis instrument, the instrument chamber holds liquid buffer, such as TAE buffer, TBE buffer, and mops buffer. An agarose gel plate is immersed under the conductive electrophoresis running buffer. The electrophoresis buffer conducts electric current two electrodes of the electrophoresis equipments. Sample molecules in the electric field migrate along a direction from negative to positive according to their charge and molecular size. After agarose gel electrophoresis process, the gel plate is removed from the electrophoresis equipment  to a UV illuminator for picturing. Sample molecules form distinguished bands in the agarose gel plate. 

The conductive electrophoresis buffer in the electrophoresis instrument, while conducting electric current to agarose gel plate, generates undesired heat during agarose gel electrophoresis, which limits agarose gel electrophoresis a slow process at low voltage.

Biokeystone invents water cooling agarose gel electrophoresis instrument, a unique agarose gel electrophoresis equipment with so many advantages together, and leads agarose gel electrophoresis industry to modern generation.

Rapid Mouse genotyping instrument

 

Genotyping is a basic daily operation in laboratories. Improvement of a single step makes a big difference to the result and speed of your projects. High quality fast genotyping gives you extra time to design your next experiment carefully.

 

Researchers are using Liberty 120 rapid genotyping PCR gel system together with the kit to optimize their work efficiency.

 

Why agarose-saving feature is so important for genotyping and PCR applications?

In agarose electrophoresis, the gel concentration is determined by the size range of the DNA /RNA fragments. Much higher percentage gel should be used to resolve small sizes, such as 100-200bps. For PCR genotyping reliability, most genotyping primers were designed to generate PCR products in small sizes range, which means that your agarose gel should be made to 3% or higher. 

Have you thought about how much is your cost to run a large agarose gel for only a few samples?
