ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for conducting orthogonal electrophoretic separations in a gel bed. The apparatus comprises two pairs of opposing tanks, each tank having a flat base, an electrode assembly and buffer containment zone. A gel bed may be formed on the base so that each edge of the gel bed is in communication with a buffer containment zone. Each buffer tank may be isolated by a barrier from the base or gel bed. A sample of soluble materials may be placed in the gel bed and electrophoretically driven in a first direction and then in an orthogonal second direction. The barriers are all utilized together to retain liquid gel precursor and then are used in opposing pairs to isolate tanks whose electrode assemblies are not in use.
After the soluble materials have been subjected to electrophoresis in both dimensions, possibly each dimensional migration in a different gel, the gel migration patterns of the materials may be found by staining, for example.
