<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve proper alignment and assembly of the parts in a leak-proof manner, without damaging or breaking in casting stands of many electrophoresis gels. <P>SOLUTION: Flat plates serving as molds and enclosures for slab gels are held together by a clamping frame, in which the side edges of the plates slide into facing channels and are pinched by lever-operated cams that compress the channel walls against the plate surfaces. The joined plates are held on a vertical support rack, containing a finger-operated spring-loaded notched clamp that presses down on the plates, to seal the opening at the bottom edges of the plates against a gasket. A well-forming comb for insertion between the plates contains flexible outwardly angled fingers, to seal against the spacers between the plates. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
