MultiSUB Horizontal Electrophoresis System

The Cleaver Scientific Horizontal multiSUB is a versatile range of horizontal agarose gel electrophoresis systems designed for DNA and RNA analysis.

  • Injection Moulded Construction - durable, leak-proof environment for complete safety and long life
  • Multiple Gel Trays - eliminate the need for additional gel tanks
  • Electrodes made of 99.99% corrosion resistant, pure platinum
  • All five Multisub model (MSMINI, MSMIDI, MSCHOICE, MSMAXI and MSSCREEN) offer an unsurpassed combination of economy of gel and buffer volume, with gel size and sample number versatility.

RunVIEW Real Time Gel Visualisation System

The runVIEW system by Thistle Scientific is an innovative, all-in-one horizontal gel electrophoresis system. It combines a blue LED illuminator, a base station with an integrated power supply, and a specialized blueVIEW lid to allow real-time visualization and recovery of DNA as it migrates through the gel

  • Track DNA without Harmful UV - RunVIEW’s capacity to provide real-time visualisation of electrophoresis enables DNA to be tracked as it migrates through the gel.
  • RunVIEW works with standard EtBr, SYBR Green and SYBR Safe gels cast within the 15x7, 15x10 or 15x15cm MSCHOICE gel trays
  • Multichannel compatible 20 to 28-sample combs for rapid screening

ProblueVIEW Dual Colour Transluminator

The proBLUEVIEW features powerful LED lighting arrays for both blue (470 nm) and white (broad wavelength) illumination and a much smaller footprint compared to transitional UV transilluminators, the proBLUEVIEW is the perfect tool for imaging a whole range of electrophoresis gels, allowing you to save on bench space. The LED lights mean that UV bulb ageing is no longer an issue and the inbuilt white LED array means separate white light tables are no longer necessary.

  • Dual Blue and White light source to image fluorescent and colorimetric gels
  • Magnetic filter compatible with wide range of DNA stains
  • 3 level adjustable LED intensity
  • Automatic power-off to prevent heat build-up
  • Bottom up illumination provides even sample illumination

OmniPETTE

OmniPETTE single channel and multichannel (8 and 12 channel) pipettes feature PVDF shafts ensuring the increased chemical and mechanical durability of the product. OmniPETTE pipettes are available in wide range of volumes from 0.2 µl to 10000 µl

  • Easy operation for right- and left-handed users
  • Low pipetting force
  • Highly durable shaft
  • UV resistant - OmniPETTE Series Pipettes can be safely sterilised with UV radiation. Even prolonged exposure to UV beams does not damage the plastic
  • Recalibration system - The calibration key provided with OmniPETTE allows for quick and accurate pipette recalibration
  • Autoclaveable
  • Three year warranty

RunSAFE

RunSAFE is a non-mutagenic fluorescent reagent that produces instant visualization of DNA bands upon Blue Light or UV illumination of agarose gels. Supplied in 6X DNA Loading Buffer, runSAFE is used to prepare DNA markers and samples for loading on agarose or polyacrylamide gels. It is the most sensitive stain available for detecting the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). It is ideal for the environment requiring a safe, non-hazardous alternative to Ethidium Bromide

Storage Store at 4°C up to 12 months. For longer periods, store at -20°C. runSAFE Dye is light sensitive and should be stored protected from light.

  • Safe alternative to Ethidium Bromide
  • Supplied as a loading dye to be mixed with DNA Samples
  • Works with Blue LED illumination to minimise DNA damage

DNA Ladders

Pre-made and containing loading dye for immediate use, Ready-to-use DNA markers are specially formulated to run accurately and produce sharp, well defined ladders

  • Available in 6 molecular weight ranges
  • Crisp band patterns
  • Ready to use with loading dye included
  • Stable at room temperature
