ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a device for the elution of electrically-charged macromolecules, especially biopolymers, from a gel by electrophoretic transfer of the macromolecules from a gel placed under a buffer into a salt solution, said device having a container (2) for the reception of an electrolyte, which chamber is divided up by at least one reception chamber for a piece of gel, which reception chamber is permeable to the electrolyte, into two electrode chambers (12, 14), each of which contains at least one electrode (8, 10), wherein the electrode chambers (12, 14) are separated from one another by a block (4) provided with a closable electrolyte passage (6) and the at least one reception chamber for a piece of gel is formed by a trough (16) let into the surface of the block (4), which trough is connected via at least one first opening (20), present in or next to the bottom (18) thereof, with one electrode chamber (14) and via a second opening (22), present in or next to the bottom thereof with a canal (24), which first descends and then rises, opening into the other electrode chamber (12) for the reception of the salt solution.
