Preparation of defect-free polyacrylamide electrophoresis gels in plastic cassettes

摘要

Irregularities in the pore structures of polyacrylamide gels that are formed in cassettes against plastic walls are reduced or eliminated by the inclusion of an oxygen scavenger in the gel-forming solution. Avoidance of the irregularities results in electropherograms with fewer distortions in the solute bands.
