Abstract
Novel instrumentation for performing largeβsize (>25βcm) 2βD maps is reported here. To perform the first dimension, we developed a power supply that can deliver a voltage of up to 15β000βV and allows regulation of current (up to 200βΞΌA) onto each individual focusing IPG strip. The IEF strip tray can accommodate up to 12 IPG strips and the electrodes slide on a ruler, thus permitting running strips of any length up to 45βcm. In addition, this apparatus also includes a second power supply that allows the performance of electrophoresis at high amperage (400βmA) and a Peltier system that allows a 10β80Β°C temperature control.
