Description

 The XCell line of mini-cells has always distinguished itself by being simple, sturdy, and convenient. The tradition continues with the patented XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell. The incorporation of a gel tension wedge in place of the rear wedge used on earlier models makes the XCell SureLock® the easiest-to-use mini-cell on the market.

How the System Works

The XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell holds gels firmly with a simple gel tension wedge. When the lever on the gel tension wedge is pushed forward into the locked position, an even horizontal force is generated. This seals the gel/buffer core assembly firmly into position in the lower buffer chamber (Figure 1). The positive locking action of the gel tension wedge ensures a trouble-free, leak-free gel run every time.

Easy Set-up Procedure

Figure 2 shows how the XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell can be easily set up in just three simple steps.
The XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell is available separately or as a part of a complete package to fit your electrophoresis needs (Table 2).
