Hoefer SE250 - Manual (Page 9)

1. Gel Electrophoresis Unit
Function and Description
The Hoefer ™ SE250 small format vertical slab
gel unit is intended for rapid electrophoresis of
protein or nucleic acid samples. Most samples
can be run in as little as 45 minutes, and only a
minimal amount of sample is required.
The SE250 accommodates one or two 10 × 8 cm
gel sandwiches. The upper buffer chamber is
formed when the notched side of a gel sandwich
is sealed against the silicone rubber gasket.
The upper buffer chamber core serves as a heat
exchanger if cooling is required. The core is
hollow and equipped with ports on either side
for coolant circulation.
Unpacking
Unwrap all packages carefully and compare
contents with the packing list, making sure all
items arrived. If any part is missing, contact
your local sales office. Inspect all components
for damage that may have occurred while the
unit was in transit. If any part appears damaged,
contact the carrier immediately. Be sure to keep
all packing material for damage claims or to use
should it become necessary to return the unit.
