Electrophoresis: Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes

Product Code : SLE/CH/126

Electrophoresis: Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes (Product Code: SLE/CH/126) is a classroom kit used to introduce agarose gel electrophoresis with coloured dyes in school and college science labs. Unlike DNA, which cannot be seen during a run, the dyes move visibly through the gel, so students watch separation happen, and the kit holds enough materials for ten 20 ml gels. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as a first hands-on electrophoresis kit for school labs in India.

What Is the Agarose Gel Dye Electrophoresis Kit Used For?

It teaches the technique before students meet invisible samples. Groups cast an agarose gel, load small volumes of each dye into the wells with a micropipette and connect the chamber to the power supply; within the lesson the coloured bands begin to separate, and depending on their charge some dyes may travel towards the positive electrode while others head the opposite way. Students measure how far each band has moved and relate the distance to the charge and size of the dye molecules, the same reasoning they will later apply to DNA fragments.

Because the dyes are visible without staining, the activity is a convenient skills session for careful pipetting and gel handling. Students who can load 10 µl cleanly into a well without piercing the gel are ready for a DNA-based practical, and pairing the kit with a dedicated electrophoresis power supply lets several groups run gels at once.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The number of kits, bearing in mind each one has materials for ten 20 ml agarose gels
  • Whether you also need agarose electrophoresis chambers, and how many
  • Whether electrophoresis power supplies should be quoted to match the chambers
  • Micropipettes capable of measuring 10 µl, and tips, if your lab does not already have them

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, supplies this kit to school, college and university laboratories. It can be quoted on one order with the chambers, power supplies and micropipettes it needs, so a department receives a complete electrophoresis set-up from a single vendor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many gels can one kit run?
The Electrophoresis: Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes kit contains enough material for ten 20 ml agarose gels. The actual number of runs can vary with the size of your gel trays and chambers, so check your equipment before planning classes.

What equipment do I need besides the kit?
Alongside the Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes kit you need agarose electrophoresis chambers, electrophoresis power supplies and micropipettes capable of measuring 10 µl. These are not included, but we can quote them together with the kit.

Why use dyes instead of DNA?
Dyes in the Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes kit can be seen during the run, so students observe separation as it happens instead of waiting for a stain; it is a safe, colourful starting point before DNA work.

Are teacher notes and worksheets provided?
Yes. The Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes kit includes a Teacher’s Manual and Student Study Guide copymasters, which can be photocopied so every group has its own sheet for recording how far each band travels.

What is the shelf life of the kit?
The shelf life of the Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes kit depends on the chemicals, their grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, particularly if you plan to use the kit across several terms.

Who supplies the Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes kit?
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India, supplies the Electrophoresis: Agarose Gel Separation of Dyes kit to schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets; include code SLE/CH/126, the number of kits and the delivery address.
