Page 2 EDGE Integrated Electrophoresis System ™ Introduction: The Edvotek® EDGE™ Integrated Electrophoresis System combines an electrophoresis apparatus, power supply, and blue light transilluminator into a single, user-friendly unit. Each EDGE™ Includes: (1) EDGE™ base unit with integrated 100V and 150V power supply, hinged lid, and blue light transilluminator.
Page 3 • The buffer in the chamber is incorrect or the buffer volume is too low. At any time during the experiment, PRESS the ON/OFF paddle at the base of the EDGE™ to illuminate the gel using the blue LEDS. After electrophoresis is complete, PRESS the START/STOP button to stop the current, document the results of the experiment, and then open the lid to dispose of the gel and electrophoresis buffer.
