Abstract

A precast gel and membrane combination unit for use in gel electrophoresis and membrane transfer for protein analysis, and method of use. Transparent electrically conductive polymer plate(s) house anelectrophoresis gel and immunoblotting membrane. The gel and membrane are positioned between two plates of conductive polymers or plates having an electrically conductive layer or film. During the electrophoresis step, electric current moves proteins through the gel allowing for protein separation. Then, without removing or reorienting the gel or apparatus, the electrical contacts are switched toallow the flow of electricity to run perpendicularly through the gel via the conductive poylmers, which will allow the proteins to transfer to the membrane housed in the same precast gel and membranecombination unit. The apparatus allows the user to visualize the steps of protein separation and protein transfer without transferring the gel between electrophoresis and transfer steps.

Description

[0001] Andrew Woodham [0002] Attorney Case No. 16-01-7768PCT [0003] Citations to related applications [0004] This application claims priority and benefit to U.S. Patent Application No. 15 / 348,803, filed November 10, 2016, which is a continuation-in-part of U.S. Patent Application No. 15 / 017,540, filed February 5, 2016, which claimed 2015 The benefit of US Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 253,143, filed November 10, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0005] The present invention relates generally to gel electrophoresis and the transfer of macromolecules, and more particularly to the use of a single prefabricated gel and membrane combination unit with a transparent conductive polymer. Background technique [0006] Although western blotting is a commonly used technique, there are still many problems caused by the transfer step. These include the introduction of air bubbles when placing the gel on the membrane, and ...
