Lab Electrophoresis combs, gel systems, lab accessories & more at LDP

We here at Laboratory Disposable Products (LDP) realize that the electrophoresis process is performed in so many fields as molecular biology, biochemistry, and even forensic science. Every field requires precision and efficiency. Therefore, we have developed an entire category with high performing combs and accessories matching to vertical and horizontal gel systems.

Mini vertical gel systems and 20cm gel platforms are known to ancillary leading systems along with ENDURO and most other systems. We have made sure that our tools for electrophoresis aid in processes like DNA separation, RNA analysis, protein profiling, among others that need high scientific standards.

What Is Electrophoresis?

Electrophoresis has been considered as one of the most important and popular laboratory methods used to separate DNA, RNA, and proteins by size and charge using electric fields in a gel matrix. This method serves as the backbone for a myriad of workflows like genetic fingerprinting, diagnostics, and even biomedical research.

The comb is crucial to every electrophoresis setup. It is the small accessory that carves out sample wells in the gel. The choice of comb, its thickness, and well capacity determines greatly the reproducibility as well as the precision of the experiment results.

Electrophoresis FAQs

1. What is electrophoresis used for in the lab?

Electrophoresis is a technique used to separate DNA, RNA, or proteins based on their size and charge by applying an electric current through a gel matrix.

2. What types of electrophoresis combs are available?

LDP offers various combs including 10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 30, 40, and 50-well combs in different thicknesses (0.75mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm) compatible with vertical and horizontal gel systems.

3. How do I choose the right electrophoresis comb?

Choose based on the number of samples, gel size, and well thickness needed for your application. Thicker combs are ideal for loading more volume.

4. What brands of electrophoresis equipment do you carry?

We stock trusted electrophoresis equipment and combs from Benchmark Scientific and National Labnet, known for lab reliability and precision.

5. Can I use the same combs for both DNA and protein gels?

Some combs are compatible with both, but it's best to check compatibility with your gel system and application type before use.

6. What accessories are needed for electrophoresis?

Besides combs, you'll need gel trays, casting systems, power supplies, and buffer solutions to run and visualize electrophoresis experiments.

7. Do you offer bulk pricing or lab discounts on electrophoresis supplies?

Yes, LDP provides competitive pricing and bulk discounts for educational institutions, research labs, and healthcare facilities.
