Description

General description

The Auto2D^® 2-D Electrophoresis Device automates two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The applied sample enters the first-dimension gel passively, separating proteins by their isoelectric points. After equilibration, the first-dimension gel is set onto a horizontal SDS-PAGE gel, which resolves proteins by molecular weight.

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has generally been regarded as difficult to perform and time-consuming, requireing advanced user training while offering low reproducibility and high inter-operator variability.

Application

• Differential proteomic analysis
• Post-translational modification
• Protein Isoforms
• Western Blotting

Features and Benefits

Auto2D^® 2-D Electrophoresis Device is user-friendly and enable two-dimensional electrophoresis in 1-2 hours for faster, more reproducible results.

• Fully automated to eliminate tedious handling steps
• Fast results in 1-2 hours
• High reproducibility
• Easy to use, with no advanced training required
• Lower inter-operator variability
