Method from primary and secondary reagents
Primary & secondary Reagents Required including controls
For a 10% Gel:
- 4.2ml 30% acrylamide 1% bis
- 4.7ml 1M Tris pH 8.7
- 3.4ml water
- 125ul 10% SDS
- 62.5ul 10% Ammonium per sulfate
- 6.25ul TEMED
Stack:
- 0.83ml 30% acrylamide 1% bis
- 0.63ml 1M Tris pH 6.8
- 3.5ml water
- 50ul 10% SDS
- 25ul 10% Ammonium per sulfate
- 2.5ul TEMED
Method including controls
- Set up Gel preparation apparutus by using 2 glass sheets, 2 spacers, a gel holder, and a rack.
- In a conical flask, mix the Reagents excluding the ammonium per sulfate and the TEMED until ready to pour.
- Pour the contents of the gel conical flask between the glass sheets using a pipette.
- Wait for 30 minutes.
- Mix the ammonium per sulfate and TEMED into the stack flask and pipette it between the glass sheets, on top of the gel.
- Insert comb between the sheets.
- Wait till the stack settles (5min) before loading the gel. Alternatively, gel can be stored up to a week in the fridge.
Equipement Required
- Measuring cylinders
- Pipette and tips
- Gel preparation apparatus and comb
