Note: To prevent shrinkage, begin by washing and drying your fleece before using it. The amount of fleece needed to make the baby-size blanket in this tutorial is 1/2 yard of blue plaid fleece, 1/2 yard of white fleece and 1/2 yard of red fleece. If you'd like to make a larger blanket, a yard of each fleece color will double the blanket size.
The H11.14 Horizontal Gel Electrophoresis Apparatus is designed for separation of preparative and analytical quantities of nucleic acids using a 11 cm x 14 cm gel. It's suitable for agarose gel electrophoresis procedures.
A typical vertical apparatus used for sequencing is shown in the figure below. This system shows the components common to all vertical slab systems. The gel is cast between two glass plates, separated by spacers, typically less than 2mm thick. The gel is mounted in the system so that the top is in contact with the negative electrode chamber, and the bottom is in contact with the positive electrode chamber. Unlike the horizontal system, the only connection between the buffer chambers is through the gel.
