Electrophoresis Wick
Item Name Code (INC) 47830
![]() |
An item specifically designed as a means of transport. Needed to provide sufficient buffer to keep media moist such as in agar techniques which enables the buffer to reach the plate. It may speed initial saturation in developing chamber or used as a replacement sponge for electrodes. May be in strip form and may besponge or paper type.
Additional Information for Electrophoresis Wick
Electrophoresis wicks are a type of laboratory equipment used in electrophoresis experiments. They are typically made of absorbent material, such as filter paper or cellulose, and are used to create a continuous buffer bridge between the gel and the electrode during electrophoresis.
The wicks are placed in the buffer solution and act as a pathway for the movement of ions and molecules during the electrophoresis process. They help maintain a constant buffer concentration and pH level throughout the gel, ensuring accurate and consistent results.
Electrophoresis wicks are commonly used in various applications, including DNA and protein separation, as well as in other molecular biology and biochemistry experiments. They are an essential component of electrophoresis setups and are available in different sizes and materials to suit specific experimental requirements.
In summary, electrophoresis wicks are laboratory equipment used to create a buffer bridge in electrophoresis experiments, ensuring consistent buffer conditions and accurate separation of molecules.
