SDS-Page within a Minute

At the recent BioProcess International (BPI) congress in Dusseldorf, Lab901 unveiled its new ScreenTape P200 product for rapid SDS-Page and analysis. Generating results in only one minute per sample, the system extends the use of the existing bench-top TapeStation instrument which has already started to make a global impact in the DNA market for PCR diagnostics. The system combines gel loading, electrophoresis, imaging and analysis. Results include a gel image, electropherogram, molecular weight determination and % purity all generated in 60 seconds per sample. There is no need to prime chips, stain / de-stain gels, image gels or annotate gel images. ScreenTape can run just a few samples, leaving unused lanes available for future experiments and reducing the waste commonly encountered with chip-based systems and pre-cast gels.
