Electrophoresis Systems, the Major Science SafeBlue, with Blue Light Leds EE
Overview
The Major Science SafeBlue Electrophoresis System is recognized as a unique Electrophoresis System equipped with very powerful specifications to cover the majority of electrophoresis and power supply demands.
The SafeBlue Electrophoresis System uses blue light LEDs to allow for safe and immediate visualization of DNA/RNA bands while running agarose electrophoresis gels.
The complete unit comes with three gel trays, 15 × 7 cm, 15 × 10cm, and 15 × 15 cm. The system is RoHS and CE compliant for environmental and safety concerns. The system is also offered in different packages to accommodate varying budgets and requirements.
Features of the SafeBlue System:
Detachable electrophoresis gel tank and base unit
Compatible with gel trays 15 x 15 cm or smaller
Entire ME15 gel tank can be fitted perfectly on top of viewing platform
Gel tank or UV tray can directly be placed on the viewing platform for gel observation
Suitable for SYBR Green I/II, SYBR gold, SafeView and Midori Green dyes
Save time with immediate visualization of DNA/RNA band migration
Blue light LEDs do not require UV safety equipment
Blue light and UV light comparison:
Equivalent amount of DNA were stained and exposed to blue light (top) and UV light (bottom) respectively, for a defined period of time and evaluated by agarose electrophoresis.
The picture represents how the Major Science MS SafeBlue compares with the UV trans-illuminator with the running conditions specified on the right. Note: all experiments were running using the MS SafeBlue electrophoresis system and UV trans-illuminator.
