ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for drying electrophoresis gels. The apparatus includes a base unit and gel drying frame assembly. The base unit serves as a both a support for the frame when placing the gel in the frame and as a receptacle for excess liquid used to prepare the gel for the drying process. The frame is used to securely hold the gel in place while preparing the gel for drying and also during the drying process itself.
