Yt. Jasrai et al., PROTOCOL FOR FABRICATION OF INEXPENSIVE VERTICAL SLAB GEL APPARATUS AND GEL DRYER, National Academy Science Letters, 16(7-8), 1993, pp. 201-206
Designs of inexpensive slab gel apparatus and gel dryer are described.
The two units can be assembled at a cost of around Rs. 1000/- from lo
cally available materials. The polyacrylamide gel clectrophoresis on t
his slab gel unit and their drying on indegenously made gel dryer show
ed similar results as could be obtained with commercial apparatus. Thi
s can be used for discontinuous, native, denatured, gradient electroph
oresis and isoelectric focusing of proteins.
