Description
Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gel – Midi, 12 Wells, 4–15%, 10 Gels is a ready-to-use gradient polyacrylamide gel system from SMOBIO Technology for protein separation by SDS-PAGE using the conventional Tris-Glycine buffer system.
The proprietary TGN, or Tris-Glycine Novel, gel formulation provides faster electrophoresis, clear protein-band separation and extended storage stability compared with conventional manually prepared Laemmli Tris-HCl gels. Protein migration patterns remain similar to those obtained using traditional Tris-Glycine SDS-PAGE, supporting straightforward integration into established protein electrophoresis workflows.
The 4–15% gradient provides a broad separation range for protein samples containing different molecular weights. The manufacturer reports separation performance comparable to commercially available 4–20% Tris-Glycine gels, while the optimized formulation can complete protein separation in approximately 19 minutes at 300 V under suitable running conditions.
Each Midi cassette measures 10 × 10 cm and contains a gel measuring 8.1 × 8.1 × 0.1 cm. The gel has 12 numbered and framed wells, with a maximum recommended capacity of 40 µL per well, helping simplify sample identification and loading.
Q-PAGE™ TGN Midi gels are designed for use with compatible Invitrogen® Mini Gel Tank and XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell systems, Hoefer SE260 systems and other electrophoresis tanks accepting the same Midi cassette dimensions. The separated proteins can subsequently be used in common downstream workflows such as gel staining and Western blot transfer.
