ABSTRACT:
Combined electrophoretic-immunoelectrophoretic analysis is conducted using a gel plate having a plurality of preformed trenches therein dividing the plate into a number of electrophoretic tracks. Serum samples are applied to the tracks such that each pair of tracks has the same sample. After subjecting the tracks to electrophoresis, one track from each pair of matching tracks is removed for protein staining by inserting a spatula into a trench and under the track to be removed. Small dabs of high vacuum silicone stopcock grease are applied to the ends of each sidewall of the remaining gel tracks and antiserum is applied therebetween. After immunoprecipitation and staining, the removed tracks are returned to their original positions to permit exact correlation of said immunoprecipitation and electrophoresis patterns. This analysis technique may be facilitated by use of equipment which includes a plate holder, a plate holder frame, underlay inserts, left and right margin inserts, a guide bar frame, templates, spatulas and plate handling hooks, burnishing rods and applicator pens. The trenches may be formed in conventional gel plates by specially designed equipment including a trench former insert frame, a double bladed gel cutter and a gel displacement beak.
