CosmoPAGE Precast Gel

Cost-effective, Compatible with Bio-Rad Mini-PROTEAN

 

CosmoPAGE TG Precast Gels (Tris-Glycine) are ready-to-use acrylamide gels for SDS-PAGE running in Tris-Glycine buffer system. With unique formula, CosmoPAGE TG Precast Gels perform enhanced resolution, sharper bands, and longer shelf life as compared with conventional Laemmli Tris-HCl gels. The protein migration patterns in CosmoPAGE TG series, however, are similar with typical Laemmli Tris-HCl gels, and thus CosmoPAGE TG Precast Gels are compatible to traditional SDS-PAGE and subsequent analyses. CosmoPAGE TG Precast Gels are available in gradient (4 to 15%) and fixed (10%) concentrations of polyacrylamide in 15-well formats.

CosmoPAGE Bis-Tris Precast Gels are a high-performance and easy to use precast polyacrylamide gels for electrophoresis in Bis-Tris buffer system (MOPS or MES). The optimized gel formula allows CosmoPAGE Bis-Tris Precast Gel to show improved resolution, accurate results, and an extended shelf-life over conventional gels. CosmoPAGE Bis-Tris Precast Gels are available in gradient (4 to 12%) and fixed (12%) concentrations of polyacrylamide in 15-well formats.

10X Transfer Buffer

Dissolve 30.0 g Tris base and 144.0 g Glycine in 1000 ml of ddH2O.

 

1X Transfer Buffer

Cool 1X transfer buffer to 4°C before using.

Dilute 100 ml 10X transfer buffer with 200 ml methanol and 700 ml ddH2O.

Note: For the proper high molecular weight proteins, up to 0.1% SDS may need to be added to 1X transfer buffer.

Tips for using CosmoPAGE

Tips for using CosmoPAGE

1. Before sample loading, rinse the wells to remove storage buffer.
2. Ensure tight-sealing of inner chamber when adaption (or fill outer chamber with buffer to the highest level.)
3. Under water flow, insertgel remover between gel and cassette from well site of gel. Slowly push gel remover to the bottom of gel until gel is detached from cassette. * Avoid diagonally peeling the gel from the corner or peeling from the bottm.

 

Tips for Western transfer

1. Assemble transfer sandwich by orientating cathode, sponge, 3 filter papers, gel, membrane, 3 filter papers, sponge, and anode. (The protein goes to the direction of cathode to anode.)
2. Remove air bubbles or excess buffer between gel and membrane by carefully moving roller over the membrane.
3. Maintain whole transfer process at low temperature. (Keep transfer tank in cold toom or on ice.)
