There is provided an electrophoresis device ( 100 ) including an insulator ( 10 ) that includes: a first-separating-medium storing section ( 4 ') for storing therein a first separating medium ( 4 ); a first opening ( 7 ) and a second opening ( 8 ) that are in communication with the first-separating-medium storing section ( 4 ') and for defining a direction of separation on the first separating medium ( 4 ); and a light-transmissive portion for observing inside of the first-separating-medium storing section ( 4 ') from outside, wherein the light-transmissive portion is covered with an anti-reflective layer ( 3 ). There is also provided an electrophoresis apparatus including the electrophoresis device ( 100 ). In one embodiment of the electrophoresis device ( 100 ), the anti-reflective layer 3 is not provided, and a light absorbing layer is provided opposite the light-transmissive portion with the first-separating-medium storing section in between. In another embodiment, the anti-reflective layer ( 3 ) and the light absorbing layer ( 9 ) are provided. This realizes an electrophoresis apparatus, and a device therefor, that enables an operator to observe separated proteins at a predetermined timing during electrophoresis, without ever making contact with the electrophoresed gel, and thereby perform a sensitive quantitative analysis. |
