E-Centrifuge Yrdimes Semi-Dry Blotter
Gel Electrophoresis Systems (GES) Elite Power Supplies
Wealtec Corporation is an international provider of life science research products for molecular biology. Wealtec have over the past several years dedicated themselves into producing innovative, quality products that are ISO 9001 and CE certified to meet the European standard EN61010.
Their products include:
The E-centrifuge personal benchtop Microcentrifuge comes standard with two angle rotors applicable for 1.5/2.0ml, 0.4/0.5ml eppendorf tubes and 8-strip PCR tubes. Operating the E-centrifuge could not be easier. Just close the lid, push start and it runs. The system is very stable during operation and includes the added safety feature of automatically switching off when the lid is opened. The system functions at a maximum speed of 6,400 rpm with a maximum RCF of approximately 2,046 xg.
The
Yrdimes is a well designed, semi-dry transfer unit that transfers all sized
proteins or nucleic acids to membranes efficiently, consistently and
reproducibly from polyacrylamide or agarose gels. The system is capable of
transferring four side by side mini-gels or gels up to 18 x 20cm in size and has
the capacity of transferring up to three stacked polyacrylamide gels. It is made of high
quality platinum coated titanium (anode) and stainless steel plates
(cathode). The spring loaded electrode plates offer suitable and
homogenous pressure over the entire surface of the blot, with a single step
locking system. The user friendly design features save time, space and manipulation,
allowing the electro-transfer of polyacrylamide gels with minimal buffer
requirements.
GEL ELECTROPHORESIS SYSTEM (GES):
The
GES family of horizontal gel systems offer many advantages for nucleic acid
separations. The versatile design of the GES system is ideal for high
resolution of all sizes of DNA and RNA separation. The system is available
in a variety of useful UV transparent tray sizes and combs for exact
configuration to specific applications. The whole cell of the GES system
is UV transparent, allowing the capture of images directly from the tray when
placed on a UV transillumunator. When casting, the dam claws offer
easy casting without the fuss of using tape etc. Additionally the high
performance electrophoresis buffer reservoir, features a convenient way to
perform nucleic acid electrophoresis, with a safety transparent lid for the
prevention of electronic shock. The GES system includes: a buffer
reservoir, two L-format assemblies (red and black), safety lid, two electrical
cables (red and black), a UV transparent tray, two fixed height combs and a levelling
bubble. The GES system is available in the following sizes: 7 x 15cm, 10 x 15cm and 15 x 15cm. The Mini GES system is
available for 6 x 7cm and 7 x 10cm sized gels.
The Wealtec Elite family of power supplies are designed to serve a variety of applications. All models offer a digital control system, which allows control of results easily and precisely. The easy to program systems are light weight and have various sets of output terminals. They also feature a "beep" sound for protection against any errors that may occur during or after operation. Should a unit short circuit, it will automatically stop running. Additionally, all power supplies have a one year warranty.
Mini
ELITE
The Mini ELITE is an easy to operate, stackable power supply with a
selectable Volt output range from 50 - 120 Volts that utilises a single set of
output terminals.
ELITE
200The ELITE 200 power supply is ideal for
applications such as blotting, protein electrophoresis and DNA / RNA
electrophoresis. It has an output range of 5
- 200V in 1V steps and 0.01 - 2A in 0.01A steps with a maximum of 200
Watts. The system utilises constant voltage or current with automatic
crossover. Typical features include timer control (0 - 999 minutes); a 3
digit, 7 seg LED display; input protection fuse; status alarm and touch panel
controls. Safety features include no load detection, sudden load change,
over voltage protection and automatic recovery after a power failure.
ELITE 300/300PLUS
The ELITE 300 power supply is ideal for protein, DNA / RNA electrophoresis
applications and RNA / DNA sequencing. It has an output range of 10 - 300V
in 1V steps and 4 - 400mA in 1mA steps with a maximum of 75 Watts.
The system utilises constant voltage or current with automatic crossover.
Typical features include timer control (0 - 999 minutes); a 3 digit, 7 seg LED
display; input protection fuse; status alarm and touch panel controls.
Safety features include no load detection, sudden load change, over voltage
protection and automatic recovery after a power failure.
The Wealtec
range of interchangeable block heaters offer three types of interchangeable
aluminium blocks specific to either test tubes, micro-tubes or PCR
reaction tubes. The block heaters offer a broad temperature control range
from 30 - 200°C with a stability, uniformity and accuracy of +/- 0.1°C.
Heat up speed is from ambient to 100°C in approximately 15 minutes. The
system is ideal for applications such as restriction digestion, nucleic acid and
protein denaturing, hot start PCR, enzyme kinetics, immunoassay reactions, BUN,
coagulation studies and agar melting. The block heaters are available with
either single or dual interchangeable blocks. Safety features include a
temperature cut-off at 212°C. Additional optional blocks and extractors
are also available.
