This IBI Horizontal Electrophoresis Systems MP-1015 Multi-Purpose is in good condition and was removed from a working environment. This unit came from a local lab that had surplus lightly used equipment. Unit is guaranteed to be in functional condition with a 30 day return policy. We urge customers to view all photos as they show overall condition, included accessories and useful information. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. Specs Construction: Buffer tank is constructed of 3/8" thick, cast acrylic Casting tray bottom is constructed of UV transmittance cast acrylic to allow viewing of the gel with a UV light source Unit Dimensions: Overall: 7cm(H) x 16.5cm(W) x 30.5cm(L) Gel Dimensions: 10cm x 15cm Shipping weight: 4.5 Lbs. Distance between the electrodes: 27cm Maximum Sample Capacity: 80 samples (4 combs, 20 samples each) Buffer Capacity: 500ml The maximum suggested applied voltage for the electrophoresis of DNA in agarose gels using the IB53000-MP1015 is 140 volts. In a 1% TBE gel, this translates into a run time of approx. 1 hour. Lower voltages can be used of course, and as a general rule a 70 volt run will take twice as long as a 140 volt run. Higher voltages can be used to decrease run time however, higher voltages can produce excessive heat and decrease sample resolution.
