An Easily Assembled Continuous Electrophoresis Apparatus

Abstract

DESIGNS for apparatus for continuous electrophoresis employing an electrical field perpendicular to gravity flow have included anticonvective media supported between plates1, and filter paper as an anticonvective medium supported between plates2 and hung like a curtain3. Construction of such equipment has tended to discourage the use of this method of isolation, particularly when exploratory experiments are necessary to assay the applicability of continuous electrophoresis to a particular problem.
