  • Page 12: Start The Operation

    4.2 Start the operation Gel Preparation Add the appropriate amount of agarose powder and 1x TAE or 1x TBE solution into a glass flask or beaker based on desired ratio. Dissolve the agarose powder by heating the agarose either on a magnetic hot plate with a stirring bar or in a microwave oven.
  • Page 13 Gel Running Carefully remove the comb and transfer the gel, including the tray, to the electrophoresis tank. Refer to the molecular biology protocols for sample preparation. Fill the electrophoresis tank with buffer until the gel is just filled to the top. This will give the fastest resolution times.
  • Page 14 Otherwise the fan may malfunction. Switch MBE-300 on whenever users would like to observe the gel. For capturing images, it is recommended to remove the cover of MJ-105A and place amber filter lid onto the electrophoresis tank.
  • Page 15 Gel Image Capture (with MBE-300 and MBE-HOOD) After running gel electrophoresis, place the DNA gel onto the center of MBE-300 to capture clearer images. Switch MBE-300 on and place MBE-HOOD to cover MBE-300 and a DNA gel. Observe and capture images of a DNA gel through the amber filter on the top of MBE-HOOD.
