Spacers
(May be ordered separately.) Spacers determine
the thickness of the gel and are available in three
thicknesses (0.75, 1.0, and 1.5 mm).

Aligns spacers for sandwich assembly.
Combs
(May be ordered separately.) Combs are avail-
able in sizes that form 10, 12, 15, 20, or 28
wells, and are available in three thicknesses:
0.75, 1.0, and 1.5 mm. Preparative combs
include 1 or 2 reference wells in addition to the
single, large, preparative well.
All preparative combs, and 10, 12, 15 and
20-well combs form wells that are 25 mm deep.
The 28-well comb forms wells that are only 15
mm deep so that wells do not collapse when
the comb is removed. The sample volume held
by each well depends on the gel thickness, well
depth and the number of wells per comb. Table
1 on page 16 lists sample volumes of each well
for all combs.
