Cleaver Scientific’s multiSUB™ horizontal gel electrophoresis units have been designed by scientists with the laboratory
scientist in mind. Through its advanced features each unit provides an easy to use, versatile and flexible system to evolve
and adapt with the changing needs of today’s laboratory researcher.
Tank and Lid Design
High quality injection moulded
construction and durable leakproof
design for complete safety
and longevity
Cassette-style electrodes – difficult
to break, but inexpensive and easy
to change – composed of 99.99%
corrosion-resistant, pure platinum
Electrical safety – lid removal immediately disconnects power to the lower buffer chamber to allow entirely
safe access to the gel
Easy-click lid removal – asymmetric lid design and thumb locators on colour-coded cassette-style electrodes
ensure that electrophoresis is always performed in the correct polar direction – i.e. negative to positive
Combs
The widest range of combs available of any gel tank manufacturer - fit virtually every application from
preparatory electrophoresis to high-throughput screening
Available in four thicknesses and colour-coded. Range from:
• White – 1mm supplied as standard
• Black – 0.75mm for tightly resolved bands
• Red – 1.5mm to maximise sample volume
• Blue – 2mm to maximise sample volume
Black and white combs recommended for high resolution gels and publication quality data; red and blue to
scale-up nucleic acid volumes for preparatory techniques
Height-adjustable, without any requirement for specialist tools or comb holders, to give user full control
over well depth and sample-loading volume; rigid comb back prevents heat-induced warping
Reversible loading guides sit directly above each well to provide a convenient loading template for singleand
multi-channel pipettes
Trays
Multiple gel tray options – eliminate the need for additional gel tanks and allow gels to be cast externally,
keeping the tank permanently in use for electrophoresis if required
UV and blue light transparent
Casting
‘Plug-and-Go’ casting – moulded casting dams clip easily onto the ends of the gel tray for rapid external
casting, allowing the multiSUB™ unit to remain in use for gel running.
Casting is as simple as 1, 2, 3...Simply place one dam onto the lab bench facing upwards and insert the tray
into the groove in the dam(1) and repeat with the second dam at the other end(2). The tray is now sealed and
may be placed on flat bench space or gel levelling table in readiness for leak proof gel-casting (3).
Other casting options include flexicaster and plastic casting gates - see multiSUB™ Selection Guide
Accessories
Red loading guides – aid well and sample visualisation during loading (1).
White gel platform – provides a contrasting background to view bromophenol blue migration fronts and
determine electrophoresis progress during every run (2).
Gel levelling table – recommended especially for MSMAXI or MSSCREEN gel trays. Adjustable levelling feet
used in conjunction with a levelling bubble provide an even surface upon which to pour wide- and largeformat
gels, to ensure consistent and uniform migration
runFAST cool pack and platform – sit directly above the gel in the buffer to provide enhanced resolution
and faster run times; especially suited to larger format horizontals. To use: fill the tank with buffer and load
samples (1.); insert platform above the gel (2.); place pre-frozen cool pack onto platform (3.); connect to
power supply and run samples at higher voltage (4.).
Power cables – with 4mm connectors compatible with most modern low-to-medium voltage power
supplies; CE compliant (1). Adaptors available for complete power supply compatibility.
Buffer Saver Blocks – conserve buffer for added economy – especially beneficial in larger format MSMAXI
and MSSCREEN units (2).

MSSCREEN FMMS10 MSBGEL MSMIDI96 MULTISUB-4
Supplied with six
28-sample multichannel
compatible combs,
with well-spacing that
favours direct loading.
The content of at least
one 96-well microplate or
thermal cycler block may
be screened in a single
gel. Standard combs
may be exchanged for
56-sample versions to
double the sample capacity.
A dedicated system
for all high-throughput
screening applications.
An ultra-compact
self-contained system for
routine molecular biology
procedures and quick
checks of samples. Buffer
and gel volumes kept to
a minimum to maximise
current and separation
speed.
Designed specifically
with safety and cost
constraints in mind,
this system is ideal for
education as no power
supply is required – only
batteries. Educational
kits are available which
include: protocols,
non-toxic electrophoretic
dyes, agarose and
buffers.
96-well comb block
and specialised tray
replicate the format
and well-spacing of
microplates and thermal
cycler blocks. Offset
well configuration
and short separation
distance (1.8cm)
allow samples to be run
within 15-30 minutes.
Ideal system for rapid
screening of up to 96
PCR-fragment length
polymorphisms. Stretch
versions available with
extended 3.6cm separation
distance to double
capacity.
Separates up to 1200
samples in as little as 15
minutes, over a short
1cm separation distance,
in 4 stacked horizontal
gel trays. A relatively
small footprint area,
plus the capacity to run
4 gels in 1 tank, saves
on valuable laboratory
bench space as well as
resources.

MSMINI MSMIDI MSCHOICE MSCHOICEST MSMAXI
The preferred option for
quick sample-checks,
particularly following restriction
digestion during
cloning. Its slim tray format
makes the MSMINI
a very economical choice
for separation of up to 64
samples.
These units offer the
same trays lengths, but
in a wider format, to run
more samples just as
economically as in the
MSMINI under similar
running conditions.
Wide-format system with
2-3 times the sample
capacity as the MSMIDI
and MSMINI units. A
comprehensive selection
of combs provides full
flexibility for preparatory
and screening techniques.
Suitable for cloning and
mini-prep analysis.
A ‘stretched’ version of
the MSCHOICE, this
system is perfect for
extended high-resolution
separations of samples
from 96-well microplates
and blocks, using its
15x20cm and 15x25cm
gel trays and four
28-sample multichannel
compatible combs. May
also be used for routine
preparatory techniques.
Large-format system
versatile enough to
be used for routine
preparatory and
high-throughput
techniques. Combs with
spacing compatible
with fixed multichannel
pipettes simplify
loading from 96-well
microplates and thermal
cycler blocks. Suitable
for RFLP analysis,
Southern and northern
blotting applications,
and DNA library and
PCR fragment analyses.

The multiSUB™ Mini is the smallest
unit in the range, designed for low
to medium numbers of samples. The
small gel size maximises run economy
but does not compromise versatility
as two tray options are available – 7
x 7cm and 7 x 10cm – and combs
ranging from preparative up to 16
samples. Simply by altering the gel tray
or comb, this compact unit is capable
of resolving up to 64 different samples,
prepping 1ml of sample or separating
sample bands over a distance of 9cm.
Buffer saver blocks physically reduce
the volume of a gel chamber and so
reduce buffer requirements, saving
cost.

With gel tray options of 10 x 7cm and
10 x 10cm, the multiSUB™ Midi has
been designed for routine horizontal
gel electrophoresis. Extending only the
width of this unit allows more
samples to be resolved per gel than the
multiSUB™ Mini without a significant
increase in buffer
or gel volumes.
A maximum of 100 samples per gel
can be resolved making this unit ideal
for those routinely checking medium
numbers of samples over short to
medium gel run lengths. Loading
guides allow easy well identification
and sample loading. Scoops available
as an option allow safe transfer of
gels. For Power Supplies and Product

The multiSUB™ Midi 96 Gel
System is ideal for high throughput
electrophoresis of PCR products or
samples containing a small number of
DNA bands.
Its 10x12cm (W x L) gel dimensions
and 96-well comb block format
correspond to the standard microplate
configuration. Two different types of
comb are available: one which has 8
wells and one additional lane for DNA
markers and one which has 8 wells
and 2 additional lanes for markers.
The offset layout of the wells allows
a maximum run length of 1.8cm per
well, resulting in improved separation.
multiSUB™ Midi 96 can accommodate
samples from a 96-well plate – samples
can be loaded directly using 8-channel
pipettes. As with all multiSUB™ units,
leak-proof casting is simplified using
the supplied casting dams while their
ultra-compact size minimises buffer
usage and bench space requirements.
MSMIDI96ST Stretch Systems are also
available for those users requiring an
extended run length per well of up to
3.6cm, or for loading of samples from
two 96-well plates - MSMIDI96STDBL.
Typical Applications
Ideal for analysis of up to 96 PCRfragment
length polymorphisms loaded
from 96-well microplates or thermal
cycler blocks
features:
• Designed for
loading of DNA
samples from multiwell
plates
• Ideal for high
throughput

The multiSUB™-4 is a compact system capable of running a
maximum 1200 samples simultaneously by stacking up to 4
horizontal gels. This achieves high sample throughput while
maintaining the time- and space-saving advantages of a
small, compact unit.
Each multiSUB™-4 is supplied with 4 gel trays and 8 combs
as standard, while additional trays and combs may be
purchased as required. Two double-sided comb and three
tray length formats are also available.
An optional flexicaster, either supplied separately or as a
package with the multiSUB™-4, is also available that allows
up to four 8x6, 8x12 and 8x18cm multiSUB™-4 gel trays to
be cast simultaneously outside the tank.
Typical Applications
Ideal for rapid checking of very large numbers of samples
from PCR and cloning. High throughput Electrophoresis.
features:
• Separates a maximum 1200 samples in as little
as 15 minutes in 4 stacked horizontal gel trays
• Multichannel-compatible combs and gel plate
configurations compatible with microplates
and thermal cycler blocks ensure rapid loading
of DNA minipreps and PCR products by
8-channel pipette
• Double-sided 1.5-mm-thick combs allow more
sample volume to be loaded into each well
• Three gel tray options available in 8x6,
8x12 and 8x18cm (WxL) sizes for maximum
flexibility
• Small footprint area reduces uptake of bench
space within the laboratory
multiSUB™-4
Three horizontal flexicasters are now available for use with
the multiSUB™ Mini, Midi, Choice, Maxi and MSSCREEN
gel trays. Each flexicaster is entirely versatile and when
casting, one end of the gel tray is pushed into position
against a fixed wall, while a moveable dam with twin
cam-lock design and rubber insert locks into position at the
other end to provide a leak proof seal. No further casting
accessories are needed other than the gel tray, while
adjustable levelling feet and a spirit bubble facilitate even
gel-pouring.
Casting Systems
features:
• Adjustable barrier with ultra-soft silicone
gasket ensures leak-proof casting
• Mini flexicaster accommodates 7x7, 7x10,
10x7 and 10x10cm gel trays
• Maxi flexicaster accommodates 15x7, 15x10
and 15x15 and 20x10, 20x15, 20x20 and
20x25cm gel trays
• Maxi flexicaster also accommodates MSMINI
and MSMIDI gel trays
• MS26 flexicaster accommodates all tray sizes
(gel can be poured at 80 degree C)

features:
• View you gel more
easily.
• Removes some of the
heat generated by
the electrophoresis
procedure.
• Unique feature to the
multiSUB™ range of
tanks.
A common problem associated with electrophoresis is
condensation build up on the lids which obscures the
progress of the run. This can make it difficult to see the dye
progression in the gel and thus difficult to work out how far
the samples have actually run.
It is often the case that the gel is stopped and checked by
removing the lid which is time consuming.
Cleaver Scientific ClearSight lids solve this problem.
These completely remove any condensation build up and
give a perfectly clear view of the gel and the dye lane
progression during the run using a USB powered fan within
the lid. These are available either purchased as complete
systems or if you already own a Cleaver Scientific gel tank as
an upgrade.
Simply plug the lid into the USB source that is supplied and
experience perfect clearly visible gels every time.

Gel Levelling Table
The Gel Levelling Table provides a useful way of pouring
gels of uniform thickness. The table features a large 32 x
26cm platform with large thumb-wheel levelling feet at each
corner. A levelling bubble is supplied.
Buffer Saver Blocks
Buffer saver blocks physically reduce the volume in positive
and negative compartments of a gel chamber and so reduces
buffer requirements, saving cost. Blocks are available for all
multiSUB™ Horizontal Gel Units.
RunFAST High Efficiency
Horizontal Gel Cooling
• Effective cooling
• Cools without external chilling systems
• Improves gel resolution and reduces run times
Comprising a removable Gel Platform and CoolPack the
unique runFAST system will cool the buffer chamber of
multiSUB™ horizontal gel units without any external chilling.
Simply place the platform over the running tray and place
a pre-chilled CoolPack on top. This allows the CoolPack
to sit above the gel in buffer directly removing any heat
generated.
Gel Rulers
• Sharp, clear, easily visible markings

Cleaver Scientific’s ‘Safe Series’ has been developed to
address the needs of researchers looking to work with safer
alternatives to UV irradiation and ethidium bromide, both of
which are known to have harmful mutagenic effects. Since
starting with its award-winning* runVIEW™ electrophoresis
system, the ‘Safe Series’ now includes the runDOC imaging
system and its repertoire of runSAFE non-mutagenic, blue
light fluorescent stains.
*Best Product Award at Lab Innovations 2013
Typical Applications
Real time Electrophoresis. Perfect for running and tracking
dna without harmful UV.
features:
• Contains everything except chemicals and reagents
to perform horizontal electrophoresis and real-time
gel free DNA band extraction and purification from
runSAFE, and EtBr- and SYBR-stained agarose gels
• Combines the high resolution capability of the
MSCHOICE system with the time-and space-saving
convenience of a power supply and gel illuminator
integrated within a compact bench top unit
• One viewing lid supplied, containing an amber
emission filter for runSAFE and SYBR-stained gels
which includes an extractor fan to keep the viewing
pane free of condensation during electrophoresis
• Optional gel documentation system fits directly over
the base unit and gel tank for imaging at the end of the
electrophoresis run
• Perfect for education – let students learn the
principles of electrophoresis by witnessing DNA
size fractionation as it happens in the gel, in total
safety from potentially hazardous UV and ethidium
bromide!
• Money-saving – 30-50% less than the combined
cost of a separate gel tank, power supply and
transilluminator
The Cleaver
Scientific SAFE
SERIES
Real-time size fractionation and recovery of
nucleic acids
runVIEW™ is an innovative new system which can be used
to maximise the efficiency of DNA recovery from runSAFE,
and EtBr- and SYBR-stained gels by minimising the number of
steps involved in post-electrophoretic purification. runVIEW™
comprises the multiSUB™ MSCHOICE system with bluVIEW
lid, containing an amber emission filter within its viewing
pane, and a base unit with integrated power supply and
blue LED gel illuminator. The amber emission filter has
been optimised for safe, green-fluorescence emitting stains,
including SYBR Green and runSAFE, while an additional
bluVIEW lid, which is optional, contains an orange emission
filter for EtBr and other red-fluorescence emitting stains.
Both lids benefit from built-in extractor fans powered by
the base unit for condensation-free viewing of real-time
electrophoresis.
Simple DNA recovery
To use runVIEW™ for gel-free DNA recovery is simple.
1. Cast a gel with two identical rows of wells using one of the
matching pairs of 3mm combs supplied. Transfer to the
tank, remove the combs, and add buffer just to cover the
gel and fill the wells. Load DNA (‘loading tier’).
2. Replace the lid and apply the power. Turn on the blue LED
and see the DNA samples migrate in real-time.
3. When the DNA bands of interest enter the second row
of wells (‘extraction tier’), stop the power, remove lid and
harvest the DNA by pipette.
Track DNA without harmful UV
Blue light is safe and has none of the detrimental effects
of UV transillumination, including mutagenesis which can
compromise cloning efficiency, while runVIEW™’s capacity to
provide real-time visualisation of electrophoresis enables DNA
to be tracked as it migrates through the gel. This allows the
user to judge precisely when the band of interest is ready for
extraction.
Save on time-consuming gel elution techniques
Running DNA into a well containing buffer effectively purifies
the DNA of agarose, eliminating the need for time-consuming
gel excision and purification techniques that also result
in sample loss. Once harvested, the DNA needs only to be
cleaned by a straightforward ethanol precipitation when it is
ready for further digestion or ligation.
No expensive commercial gels
runVIEW™ works with standard runSAFE, SYBR Green
and EtBr gels cast within the 15x7, 15x10 or 15x15cm
MSCHOICE gel trays, and therefore does not require expensive
precast gels and accessories.
A self-contained system
The compact base unit, which houses the in-built power supply
and blue LED transilluminator, is dual-voltage and portable,
and allows electrophoresis, gel visualisation and extraction
to be performed at the bench, without the inconvenience of
having to transport gels to a darkroom elsewhere within the
laboratory.
Other benefits offered by runVIEW™ include:
• Power supply integrated within the base unit – adjustable
in 1V or 1mA increments; timer function to 999 minutes for
extended runs.
• Specialist combs for specialist applications - four multichannel
compatible 1mm 20-/28-sample combs for rapid screening
of nucleic acids from 96-well thermal cycler blocks and
microplates. 3mm preparatory combs supplied for enhanced
DNA recovery.
• Get real-time - existing MSCHOICE users may customise
their system by purchasing the base station and bluVIEW lid.
• Versatile - power supply and gel illuminator may be used
with other gels and electrophoresis systems.

runDOC is a portable, lightweight gel documentation system
designed exclusively for the runVIEW™ real-time horizontal
electrophoresis system (Pg 28). runDOC comprises a
darkroom hood and 12.1 megapixel digital camera to
capture images of runVIEW™, and EtBr- and SYBR-stained
gels. The runDOC darkroom is placed directly over the
RVMSCHOICE gel tank located on the runVIEW™ base unit,
which contains a blue LED gel illuminator. The blue LED
illuminator provides the excitation source for the DNA gel
located within the tank, and following excitation the light
emitted is then visualised using either one of the bluVIEW lid
options supplied with runVIEW™ or the runDOC filter slide.
runDOC has a small footprint area, occupying minimal space
within the laboratory.
The runSAFE Range comprises four non-mutagenic stains
that produce instant visualisation of DNA bands upon
irradiation with blue light or UV in agarose or polyacrylamide
gels. Each stain is conveniently supplied in a 6x loading
dye which is mixed with 5 parts double-stranded DNA
before loading onto an agarose or polyacrylamide gel. The
individual colour constituents within each loading dye track
electrophoresis run progression, and indicate the extent of
band separation and resolution by co-migrating with DNA
bands of known molecular size, which varies according
to the gel percentage. All four stains are non-toxic, safe
for the environment and can be disposed of in the regular
laboratory waste without using expensive decontamination
methods. Each stain is sensitive and binds DNA to detect as
little as 0.2ng DNA per band within a gel; while gel imaging
is best performed using the amber emission filter found of
the bluVIEW lid or runDOC filter slide. The runSAFE Range
is comprised as follows:
• runSAFE – general purpose stain for DNA ranging from
50bp markers to large super-coiled plasmid
• runSAFE-PLUS500 – for DNA larger than 500bp in size;
• runSAFE-2000 – for DNA vectors and inserts ranging from
500-2000bp;
• runSAFE-500 – for small DNA fragments, PCR products,
sequence tracts and primers less than 500bp.

The runSAFE Range - Less DNA damage,
improved cloning efficiency
Slower migrating species, indicative of a linear or relaxed
circular vector, resulting from DNA nicking or strand breaks,
are significantly reduced in DNA plasmid mixed with run-
SAFE and exposed to blue light. The concentration of nicked
DNA plasmid increases significantly after 8’ of exposure to
EtBR and UV irradiation.

CSL-CHILLER Chiller unit for active slide temperature control
The CSL-CHILLER (see page 81 for full details) is available
ready assembled with the thermostat mounted on the refrigerator
and supplied with insulated tubing and clips to form
a system ready to use. Supported by an industry leading 3
year warranty emphasising our confidence in the reliability
of our product.
The system comprises of the following:
• 5 litre tank with drain tap
• relay control for refrigeration on/off
• cooling power 140W @ 0°C
• temperature range -20 to 100°C
Background: First introduced in 1981 to quantify double-
stranded DNA breakages in single cells exposed to
-irradiation, the Comet Assay (or SCGE) has since been
adapted to analyse specific DNA lesions and repair processes
to analyse the potential for DNA damage of new drugs and
environmental conditions.
Overview: Following genotoxic insult, such as ionizing radiation,
the resultant strand breakage of supercoiled duplex
DNA reduces the size of the large genomic DNA from which
these strands are separated or drawn out by electrophoresis.
The genomic DNA then takes on the appearance of a
‘comet’ as its negatively charged broken ends and fragments
migrate towards the anode during electrophoresis.
Method: After exposure to a genotoxic insult cells are
suspended within low melting point agarose and embedded
within a thin layer of agarose on a microscope slide. Cellular
protein is then removed by lysis in detergent, when DNA is
allowed to unwind in alkaline conditions before electrophoresis.
The DNA is electrophoresed, stained and then analysed
using software.
Results: Microscopy imaging is used to measure DNA fluorescence
upon staining. In DNA damaged cells the resultant
image resembles a ‘comet’ with the cellular DNA separated
into a head and tail. The head is mainly composed of intact
genomic DNA, whereas any fragmented or damaged DNA is
concentrated within and towards the tail.

Developed in collaboration with
the Oxidative Stress Group in the
Department of Cancer Studies
and Molecular Medicine within
the University of Leicester, the
COMPAC-50 is a high throughput
electrophoresis system, available
exclusively through Cleaver Scientific,
to perform the Comet Assay,
otherwise known as Single Cell Gel
Electrophoresis. A unique patent
pending design employs two carriers
to hold a total of 50 slides (25 per
carrier) vertically. This provides two
distinct advantages over conventional
Comet Assay systems that utilise
a horizontal platform for manual
mounting of multiple individual slides.
Firstly to produce a highly compact
system which saves 75% of Lab space.
Secondly by holding 25 slides in a
rack this allows slides to be processed
together in one batch saving on
handling assay time by up to 90%.
Consequently, this is not only beneficial
for electrophoresis but also in the lysis,
neutralisation, staining and washing
steps of the Comet Assay, when each
batch of slides may be treated during
each step respectively using the four
ebony acrylic staining dishes supplied.
In addition, the COMPAC-50 benefits
from a high performance ceramic
cooling base with sliding drawer to
accommodate a cool pack, which is
frozen before use, to maintain optimal
buffer temperature.
The COMPAC-50 marks the first of
a new range of innovative systems
designed specifically for rapid
high throughput single cell gel
electrophoresis.
Typical Applications
DNA repair, mutagenesis and oxidative stress research. Drug toxicology studies.
Food safety testing

Typical Result
Repair of UVB-induced DNA damage in human keratinocytes,
using enzyme-modified comet assay. HaCaT cells
were irradiated with 1 J/cm2 UVB, then allowed to repair in
fresh medium and DNA damage analysed at different time
points (A) 0 h, (B) 1 h,(C) 6 h, (D) unirradiated (courtesy of
Karbaschi, M. University of Leicester, Leicester, UK).
COMPAC-50 – Experimental Procedure
Overview of a typical comet assay procedure. A single-cell
suspension of the cells under investigation is mixed with low
melting point agarose. The cell/agarose mix is layered on
glass microscope slides, pre-coated with agarose, and the
agarose allowed to set. The cells are lysed under high pH
before washing with pure water. The presence of strand
breaks and high pH allows the cellular DNA to unwind.
Electrophoresis draws the DNA out of the nucleoid body
forming a ‘tail’. The amount of migration (the amount
of DNA in the tail versus the head) is proportional to the
initial amount of DNA damage. The slides are then drained,
neutralised and washed with pure water before drying overnight.
Following further washing in pure water the slides are
stained, washed and finally scored and analysed, typically
using fluorescent microscopy and image analysis software.
Advantageously, the use of a slide-holder assembly, which
maintains multiple slides in laminar arrangement, also
permits batch processing of these slides through pre-electrophoresis
and post electrophoresis steps, thus eliminating the
need for individual manipulation of samples

Cellas Electrophoresis System
Cleaver Scientific also provides a comprehensive range of
‘wet’ cellulose acetate gels, consumables and diagnostic kits.
These include:
CellasGEL – ‘wet’ cellulose acetate gels
CellasGEL ‘wet’ cellulose acetate gel strips are ready to
use and overcome many of limitations of traditional ‘dry’
cellulose acetate membranes. CellasGEL’s advantages over
dry cellulose acetate membranes are as follows:
1. Wet state – unlike dry membranes, CellasGEL is a
cellulose acetate film produced in a wet form to facilitate
buffer adsorption, but without the entrapment of air
bubbles that inhibit electrophoresis
2. Greater thickness – CellasGEL’s greater thickness (190-
500μm) compared to dry membranes (160-190μm)
allows application of larger sample volumes to enhance
detection of poor quality specimens low in protein
content
3. High resolution – samples may be applied to CellasGEL
as wider but finer bands, without risk of diffusion, to
make band quantitation more reproducible; this is further
enhanced by extended migration distances (60-70mm)
that improve band separation
4. Amphiphilic – CellasGEL’s lipophilic and hydrophilic
properties make it the perfect separation medium for
many different biological molecules, ranging from
lipoproteins to haemoglobins
CellasGEL is supplied either as individual packs of 25 or 100
strips or within clinical test kits for the following applications:
• Immunofixation Electrophoresis (IFE): Monoclonal
Gammopathies of Undetermined Significance (MGUS);
Multiple Myeloma (MM)
• Serum Protein Analysis: Dysproteinaemia; Incipient
Gammopathies
• Haemoglobin Analysis: Haemoglobinopathies such as
Thalassaemias and Sickle Cell Disorders
• Lipoprotein Analysis: Hyperlipidaemias; High-density

Unlike dry cellulose acetate strips that are restricted to low
volume micro tests, CellasGEL’s greater thickness allows
tests to be performed on semi-micro and macro scales using
a wide range of specialist applicators. Consequently greater
sample-volumes may be loaded as larger, but finer bands
over a wider front. This reduces sample saturation and
aids densitometric band quantitation, thereby improving
resolution.
Bridges
A universal bridge (CSLBDG8.5S) supports each 2.5x14cm
and 5.7x14cm CellasGEL during sample application by
serving as a convenient loading template for the required
applicator. Up to three universal bridges may be then placed
into each Cellas tank for electrophoresis.
Densitometer
A universal densitometer scanner with software capable
of reading 144 tests per minute is available for band
quantitation following post-electrophoretic staining.

CellasMEM Dry Membranes
Although CellasGEL cellulose acetate gels have a number of
advantages over traditional dry cellulose acetate membranes,
many manual systems and modern robotic platforms still
use dry cellulose acetate membranes, which are usually
supported on a plastic backing. Consequently, in order
to address this demand, Cleaver Scientific has developed
CellasMEM – a range of dry cellulose acetate membranes
supported on a Mylar film.
Each CellasMEM dry cellulose acetate membrane is
available in 25x76mm (CSLMEM257650), 60x76mm
(CSLMEM607625) and 94x76mm (CSLMEM947625) plate
sizes, and is compatible with the manual and automated
platforms of many leading and emerging brands within
the clinical electrophoresis market, including: Helena
Laboratories, Interlab and Seleo.
CellasMEM is supplied either as individual packs of
25 or 50 strips to perform manual assays for Serum
Protein (Dysproteinaemia; Incipient Gammopathies) and
Haemoglobin Analyses (Haemoglobinopathies such as
Thalassaemias and Sickle Cell Disorders). Please see
page 45 for Ordering Information.
Applicators
The CellasMEM CSLMEMAPPM8 is an 8-sample
micro applicator designed for use with 60x76mm
(CSLMEM607625) and 25x76mm (CSLMEM257650)
CellasMEM dry plates. The applicator dispenses each sample
deposit as a thin band 5-mm-wide that is equivalent to
0.25μl in volume; and may load either one 60x76mm strip
or two 25x76mm strips (4 samples per strip) at a time.
By loading each sample as a tighter, but finer, band over a
wider front, the sample diffusion and saturation typical of
standard syringe loading methods is significantly reduced,
resulting in improved band quantitation. A CSLMEMAPPS6
semi-micro applicator is also available to load 6 samples,
each sample deposit 7-mm-wide and corresponding to 0.5μl
in volume.
Bridges
Adjustable bridges within the CELLAS tank render specialist
bridges unnecessary. Both CELLAS bridges may be
positioned either side of the central buffer partition within
the tank to produce the 76mm gap necessary to support
Helena-type membranes, while the 24cm width of the tank
accommodates either three 60x76mm or six 25x76mm
CellasMEM membranes per run. A dedicated bridge adaptor
(CSLMEMBA) is available for those users of non-Cleaver
cellulose acetate electrophoresis tanks that do not have
adjustable bridges.

Paper Wicks
Supplied in packs of 100 and available in 190x60mm and
220x40mm (WxL) sizes, CellasMEM disposable paper wicks
may be used respectively with standard Cellas MEM dry plates
and CellasMEM dry plates for Helena applications. To set
up the Cellas tank for use with dry plates, simply insert each
paper wick lengthwise within the tank pre-filled with buffer,
so that the buffer will become absorbed. Once absorbed, fold
over the top of each wick to make a support bridge, ensuring
the bottom edge of the wick is immersed within buffer and in
contact with the bottom of the tank, while the top edge rests
along the adjustable bridge. Repeat for the other bridge.
CellasMEM Membranes
CellasMEM membrane plates are available in many different
sizes and quantities ranging from the market-leading Helen
Titan 3 manual system to punched dry membrane plates
compatible with the strip-holders of automated systems
from Genio Interlab and SELEO. Also listed are CellasMEM
membranes for older systems - some of which are obsolescent
- that are still in use today.

‘clean’ well formation, and are available in 4 thicknesses and
colour-coded:
• White – 1mm supplied as standard
• Black – 0.75mm for tightly resolved bands
• Red – 1.5mm to maximise sample volume
• Blue – 2mm to maximise sample volume
Black and white combs recommended for high resolution
publication quality data; red and blue to scale-up volumes for
preparatory techniques.
Reversible combs also serve as
loading indicators to aid pipettewell
alignment,
preventing sample loading errors
– simply invert the comb prior
to loading to reveal a loading
template that sits conveniently
above the newly formed sample
wells
CASTING AND RUNNING
Dual purpose PAGE inserts eliminate timeconsuming
transfer of glass plates between
separate casting and running modules.
Cam-Pin caster locks PAGE insert onto the ultra-soft
silicone mat within casting base to provide a leak-free
seal.
OMNIPAGE MINI
Flat, ultra-soft moulded gasket acts
in tandem with a unique single-piece
pressure clamping frame to facilitate
even pressure distribution to minimise
gel compression; gasket reversible for
Bio-Rad compatibility.
Unique sliding-clamp
technology within PAGE
insert allows rapid set
up of handcast and
precast gels.
Gel release tool
quickly releases
glass plates from
PAGE insert.
WAVE
Resting slots allow gel clamps to sit conveniently
out of the way for hindrance-free loading of gel
cassettes.
Novel vertical screw-clamp technology utilises only 4 screws for
faster set up compared to traditional large-format systems.
Sliding gel-clamps available in two thicknesses to
accommodate single- and double-gel cassettes.
Ergonomic ‘wave’ design of PAGE insert provides convenient finger
grips for easy handling.
2-D AND BLOTTING OPTIONS (Available as standalone add-ons or as part of fully integrated electrophoresis systems for multiple
electrophoresis techniques –e.g. CVS10CBS [PAGE & blotting], CVS10C2DS [IEF & PAGE], CVS10CES [IEF, PAGE, blotting])
Modular blotting inserts for omniPAGE MINI, MINI WIDE and WAVE systems use the tank and lid of the
corresponding PAGE system to perform fast, high-quality blotting of a maximum 4 gels; high-intensity plate
electrode option available for the omniPAGE MINI and WAVE.
Capillary tube gel inserts utilise the same tank and lid of corresponding PAGE system for reproducible 2-D
electrophoresis; isoelectric focusing (IEF) of up to 10 capillary tube gels may be completed in as little as 3.5
hours. Optional IPG converter kits modify PAGE gels to accommodate commercial IPG strips.
ACCESSORIES
Robust scientific grade glass plates: 2mm thick omniPAGE MINI; 4mm thick omniPAGE MINI WIDE and WAVE.
Notched glass plates with bonded spacer option may be used with standard plain glass plate with 1mm bonded spacer and notched
glass plates to double gel capacity of the PAGE insert, allowing a maximum of 4 gels to be run (supplied as standard with CVS10TETRAD
systems).
Cool packs – simple to use cooling pack systems ensure enhanced resolution without costly and time-consuming additional
equipment. Simply pre-chill in a freezer and place within the gel tank; cool packs also reduce buffer volume.
Power cables with 4mm connectors compatible with most modern
low-to-medium voltage power supplies; CE compliant. High voltage cables
with 2mm connectors and adaptors available for complete power supply
compatibility
Detachable inner cooling coil connects to the laboratory water supply or
a recirculating chiller to provide uniform smile-free electrophoresis, while
allowing runs to be performed at higher voltage.
Gradient mixers and multicasters available to cast multiple mini vertical
gradient gels.
Glass plate racks for safe drying and storage of glass plates.
VERTICAL

Octi-Page is Cleaver Scientific’s solution for high throughput
electrophoresis of 10x10cm mini-gels. Based on the 4-gel
capacity of the CVS10TETRAD system, the Octi-Page takes
electrophoresis one step further by allowing eight single gels
to be run within two individual CVS10DIRM running inserts.
By using the standard CVS10 mini-vertical plain glass plate
with bonded spacer (VS10PGS1) and notched glass plate
(VS10NG) configuration, the researcher not only benefits
from being able to compare data between single gels run
within the same tank but is also free of the complications that
sometimes occur when opening and processing double-gel
cassettes or triple-plate sandwiches.
Two casting bases are supplied to cast up to 8 gels within two
CVS10DIRM running inserts which are then transferred to the
tank for electrophoresis. While electrophoresis is underway,
time may be then spent casting another 8 gels using the two
casting upstands (CVS10EXCAST) in tandem with the casting
bases. Once the first electrophoresis run is completed, the
CVS10 mini-vertical’s unique sliding clamp technology allows
the newly cast gels to be switched quickly and easily from
the casting upstands to the running inserts, keeping the tank
permanently in use for maximum throughput.
The optional VS10BI blotting insert also fits comfortably
within the tank to blot all eight PAGE gels, while two reusable
freezer packs provide enhanced low-cost cooling to maintain
protein stability, particularly during native transfers. The
Octi-Page may be supplied pre-configured for commercial
precast gels, or as a complete package with power supply and
blotting insert.
Octi-Page
Typical Applications
Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE or SDS-PAGE) and
electroblotting. 2-D gel electrophoresis (requires VS10DCI tube
gel insert). Rapid screening of new samples, and evaluation of
sample preparation conditions
Typical Applications
Casting of multiple 10 x 10cm gels up to 24.
Casting Gradient gels
Advance casting of multiple mini gels can help to achieve
consistent results between runs. These multiple gel casting
systems are tailored for use with omniPAGE mini vertical
electrophoresis units; with three models of 6, 12 and 24 gel
capacities. Fewer gels can be poured if required using the
acrylic saver blocks supplied with each system.
The fixed hinged clamps allows the gel sandwich to be adjusted
to the correct pressure irrespective of the number or
the thickness of gels being poured. Separation sheets allow
the easy separation of the glass plates after pouring.

The omniPAGE mini wide vertical
gel unit with an active gel width of
18cm effectively allows double the
number of samples to be resolved as
the omniPAGE mini unit. This allows
consistency of sample comparison
on a single gel and is designed for
those with greater than 20 samples to
compare and resolve.
Simple set up using ultra soft silicone
seals guarantees trouble free glass plate
loading and gel casting. Dual gaskets
on the gel running insert along with
notched and plain glass plates ensure
leak proof gel running. Rapid set up
cooling retains resolution in extended
separations and also saves on buffer
volume without affecting run quality.
4mm thick glass plates reduce
breakage and have bonded spacers for
added convenience. A wide range of
accessories is available allowing many
techniques to be performed using the
same unit. Prep combs can be used to
maximise sample loading and recovery.
Accessory electroblotting and tube gel
modules are available which use the
same outer tank and lid.

The new VS20WAVE Maxi System
is Cleaver Scientific’s latest product
innovation for large-format vertical gel
electrophoresis. Designed to perform
a variety of separations, including
first- and second-dimension SDSPAGE,
native, preparative, gradient
and high-resolution nucleic acid
electrophoresis, plus capillary tube gel
IEF and electroblotting, the VS20WAVE
is one of the most versatile maxi vertical
systems available.
By introducing innovative, new vertical
screw-clamp technology within the
PAGE insert only four screws are now
necessary to secure as many 20x20cm
gels. This gives the VS20WAVE Maxi
the selective advantage of a much faster
set up speed compared to competitor
products whose traditional clamping
configurations require as many as 24
screws to secure just two glass plates. In
addition, the WAVE’s vertical screwclamp
configuration distributes pressure
evenly along the height of the gel
rather than in the centre to eliminate
plate bowing and gel compression, but
still maintains a leak-proof seal during
casting; while the ergonomic wave-like
design of the PAGE insert aids both
handling and set up.
Whatever your requirements are the
WAVE can be made to meet them.
Regardless of whether it is running 2
or 4 gels, electroblotting, and IEF using
capillary tube gels or IPG strips, all of
these techniques may be performed
using the same omni-purpose unit
while retaining the benefits of large
format electrophoresis, such as
extended separation distances, greater
sample throughput and superior
resolution.

Now equipped with rehydration and
focusing trays, the redesigned CSL-IEF
has been optimised to perform first-dimension
isoelectric focusing (IEF) with
IPG (immobilised pH gradient) strips
quickly, easily and reproducibly.
An ideal entry-level system for both
inexperienced and occasional IEF users,
the CSL-IEF is also versatile enough to
meet the needs of laboratories with
increased throughput requirements.
Features include:
• A high-capacity focusing tray that
accommodates up to twelve IPG
strips
• Adjustable ‘pick-and-place’
electrodes clip conveniently
anywhere within the focusing tray to
resolve IPG strips 7-24cm in length;
colour-coded to prevent polarity
reversal
• A cooling plate, manufactured
from a special grade ceramic in
a large 26x26cm surface area,
facilitates effective heat dissipation
and homogenous thermal control,
particularly during high voltage
IEF techniques
• An optional, but recommended,
Cleaver Scientific recirculating chiller
(Pg 130) connects quickly and easily
to the cooling plate via snap-lock
connectors to maintain optimal
operating temperatures for IPG strips
(20°C) and precast gels (4°C)
• Rehydration tray allows convenient
transfer of IPG strips to the focusing
tray without time-consuming
removal of residual rehydration
buffer; also enables focusing tray to
remain permanently in use for IEF to
maximise throughput, and provides
useful storage at -20°C for focused
strips before second-dimension runs
• Electrode frame clips directly on
to the cooling plate and includes
adjustable electrodes to run
horizontal precast IEF and PAGE gels
Typical Applications

Ideal for Caesium, Sucrose and Gel gradients these Gradient
Mixers comprise two chambers – a reservoir and a
mixing chamber with an interconnecting valve. A second
valve regulates the output flow from the mixing chamber.
All mixers have a flat base which allows them to be placed
on a magnetic stirrer. A magnetic stirring bar can be placed
directly in the mixing chamber to ensure a constant gradient.
The support rod allows the mixer to be fixed to a retort
stand for extra stability.
Gradient Mixers
Second stage 2-D
The omniPAGE VS30 maxi-plus large format vertical has
been designed as a convenient unit for second-dimension
PAGE following first-dimension isoelectric focusing using the
CSL-IEF.
An active gel width of 26cm easily accommodates IPG strips
up to 24cm in length, the longest available commercially,
while an extended gel height of 22cm maximises separation
distance and resolution of proteins similar in size or
isoelectric point (pI). In combination with the CSL-IEF, the
VS30DSYS provides a complete 2-D electrophoresis system
which utilises the advanced features of the omniPAGE range
to produce a unit that is both easy to use and consistent in
generating reproducible results.
Rapid set-up cooling retains resolution in extended
separations and also conserves buffer volume without
affecting run quality. A maximum of four 1-mm-thick
gels may be resolved per run, using notched glass plates
with 1mm bonded spacers; and a comprehensive range of
accessories facilitate easy interchange between 2-D and
standard vertical electrophoresis techniques. Different types
of 2-D comb offer a wide degree of versatility in sample
selection and gel set-up.

VS20WAVE-DGGE - Applications
DGGE
Description Benefits
i. Determines the denaturing
conditions required to identify
unknown mutations
i. GM100 gradient mixer and
optional MU-D01 peristaltic pump
simplify casting of denaturing
gradient gels
ii. Works on the principle
that increasing denaturant
concentrations melt DNA in a
domain-specific manner, and the
mutation or polymorphism of
interest is in the DNA domain with
the lowest Tm
ii. New VS20WAVE
electrophoresis insert and cam
caster for leak free casting
iii. Requires parallel DGGE – a
technique where DNA samples are
resolved at uniform temperature in
gels containing a formamide and
urea denaturant gradient parallel
to the direction of electrophoresis
iii. Temperature control
unit provides consistent run
temperatures between 45-70°C
iv. Results in partial melting of
DNA to produce a branched
molecule identified by its reduced
mobility within the gel
iv. High resolution 20x20cm
format
CDGE
Description Benefits
i. Rapid screening method for
multiple samples containing an
identified mutation
i. Uses constant denaturant
gels cast with new VS20WAVE

iii. Resultant heteroduplexes
are less stable and melt at a
lower denaturant concentration
than wild-type and mutant
homoduplex molecules, allowing
them to be identified by reduced
mobility within the gel
iii. Optional temperature control
for reproducibility
iv. Requires parallel DGGE, or
may be performed overnight in a
TBE gel made from special highresolution
acrylamide
iv. High resolution 20x20cm

Blotting, a technique that entails immobilisation of
proteins or nucleic acids on a solid membrane support
and then detection using a specific antibody or probe of
complementary nucleic acid sequence, significantly increases
the potential for identification and characterisation of
proteins and nucleic acids. Upon transfer to a membrane
support proteins and nucleic acids become far more
accessible to detection by antibodies and probes than they
would otherwise be within a gel. Separating out DNA,
RNA or Protein samples of different sizes by electrophoresis
followed by blotting is an excellent way to identify specific
molecules within a mixed population of nucleic or protein
molecules, and the two techniques are often used in tandem.

BLOTTIN G SYSTEM SELECTION GUIDE
Use the selection guide below to identify the Cleaver Scientific blotting system best suited to your electrophoresis application.
MICRO FILTRATION (DOT AND SLOT BLOTTIN G) SELECTION GUIDE
Cleaver Scientific Microfiltration Manifolds do not require the resolving power of electrophoresis before transfer, with nucleic acid,
protein and antibody samples being simply drawn onto a membrane under the power of vacuum.
Tank Transfer
Blot Transfer
Systems Overview:
Cleaver Scientific offers
four types of system:
• Modular
Electroblotters –
combine PAGE and transfer
techniques within the same
tank (see Pg 74-75 ).
• Tank transfer systems
– available with either plate
or wire electrodes, support
efficient, quantitative
transfers over a wide
molecular weight range.
Plate electrode systems are
faster through greater field
strength; wire electrodes
are more economical,
consuming less current and
generating less heat (see Pg.
77 ).
• Semi-dry transfer
systems – perfect for rapid,
high-intensity transfers of
mid-range proteins, 10-
100kD in size (see Pg. 80 ).
• Microfiltration (dot
and slot blotting)
– does not require
electrophoresis and is used
to determine the working
conditions for a new blotting
assay, antibody titres and
antibody-antigen specificity.
Also suitable for nucleic
acids (see Pg. 81 ).

Tank Sub
Electroblotters
Designed primarily for wet electroblotting of proteins,
TankSub Electroblotters offer a combination of increased
capacity with economy saving features. Both units, Mini 10
x 10cm and Maxi 20 x 20cm, have increased capacity over
standard systems with up to five gel blot cassettes utilised
at any one time. This is especially useful in high throughput
laboratories.
A uniform electric field is provided by a high intensity
coiled electrode and ensures uniform transfer across the
blot surface. The cassette’s open architecture ensures the
maximum blot area allows direct transfer of current. Its
rigid construction ensures contact between the gel and
membrane is retained throughout the blot and an even
pressure is maintained. These units are compatible with
magnetic stirrers to aid heat dispersal and prevent pH drifts
in the buffer due to incomplete buffer mixing. Each system
includes a cooling pack to further enhance transfer efficiency
by removing excess heat. This also saves on buffer for added
economy.
Typical Applications
Combine PAGE and transfer Techniques within the
same tank.

easily adapted for vertical PAGE or IEF with capillary tube
gels, using the relevant optional insert.
The Sub Blot Mini and WAVE high intensity transfer systems
combine the cooling capacity of wet submarine blotting
units with the speed of semi-dry transfer systems. Both
systems utilise plate electrodes to create a higher strength
electric field and greater current density than conventional
wire-electrode systems. This allows transfer of broad range
molecular weight proteins to be achieved typically within an
hour in the Sub Blot Mini, and in 1-2 hours using the WAVE
Sub Blot System. Features offered by the Sub Blot Mini and
WAVE are as follows:
• Plate-electrodes 2cm apart in the Sub Blot Mini facilitate
fast transfer of two stacked 8x8.5cm mini gels; and 4cm
apart in WAVE Sub Blot system for transfer of one Maxi
gel
• Multi-transfer capability in the WAVE also allows transfer
of 4 omniPAGE Mini and 2 omniPAGE Mini Wide gels
arranged side-by-side
• Two cooling options: a cool pack supplied with the Sub
Blot Mini for environmentally friendly low-cost cooling;
and active cooling in the Sub Blot WAVE by a detachable
cooling coil connected to a recirculating chiller (Pg 130)
• Magnetic stirring bars fit conveniently beneath the cooling
coil within the WAVE tank to maximise buffer circulation
and heat dissipation, while preventing ion gradient formation;
both tanks sit comfortably on most stirring plates
• Open design, rigid cassettes maximise gel-to-membrane
compression for efficient current transfer; colour-coded to
prevent polarity reversal

Dot and Slot
Blotters
Four different sample number size and style of Hybridisation
Manifold are offered:- two types of dot blotter and two
types of slot blotter.
Typical applications include clone screening with DNA /
RNA probes in Southern/northern blots and immunological
screening with antibodies in western blots.
The units incorporate precision lapped surfaces to ensure
uniform blotting membrane contact and a leak proof
gasket. These prevent lateral transfer of samples – smudging
– by ensuring that a complete vacuum is formed. Six
thumbscrews ensure even and tight sealing for fast sample
suck down. Dot blotters are available in 48 and 96 well
versions and slot blotters in 24 and 48 well.

features:
• Low cost

• Alpha-numeric sample identification
Typical Applications
Rapid transfer of DNA, RNA or proteins from gels onto
membranes. Termed Southern, Northern and Western
blotting.
Typical Applications
Direct transfer of Nucleic acid or protein samples onto
membranes for hybridisation or antibody screenings
These Semi Dry Blotters offer rapid transfer times for DNA,
RNA and protein blotting – typically 15 to 30 minutes.
All units can be used for all types of blotting: western,
Southern and northern via uncomplicated buffer and set
up procedures and are compatible with gel thicknesses
from 0.25 up to 10mm without the need for additional
equipment. Each unit is compatible with their respective
omniPAGE vertical gel system.
Semi Dry Blotting has the added benefit of economic
transfers due to very low buffer volumes – typically only a
few millilitres of buffer are required per transfer. These Semi-
Dry Blotters utilise a screw down lid, which secures the blot
sandwich and allows complete control of pressure ensuring
even transfer. The electrodes, comprising platinum coated
anode and stainless steel cathode, will exhibit practically no
corrosion and so provide many years of trouble free use.
Uniform heat dispersion across the blot sandwich ensures
stable transfer times and no heat induced sample loss or
transfer distortions. Being translucent, it allows viewing of
the blot sandwich to ensure correct positioning and transfer
is occurring correctly. Electrode plates are fully separated to
prevent arcing or damage.
features:
• Rapid transfer times
• Western, Southern and Northern Blots
• Economic Transfers due to very low buffer volumes
• Screw down lid – gels from 0.25 up to 10mm thick
can be blotted

omniPAC Midi
CS-300V
With nearly twice the current and power of the market
leader’s equivalent unit, at 700mA and 150W, the CS-
300V offers a specification comparable to any midi power
supply presently available on the market. The CS-300V is
perfectly suited to use with all Cleaver Scientific horizontal
multiSUB™ systems and omniPAGE mini vertical gel units,
and may also be adapted for specialist techniques including
the Comet Assay, and clinical and high throughput horizontal
electrophoresis. Microprocessor control with four sets of
power terminals allow simultaneous operation of as many
electrophoresis units either at a constant voltage or current
setting, while the timer function may be set continuously
or up to a maximum 999 minutes when an alarm sounds
to signify termination of the run. A user-friendly interface
houses a conspicuous 3-digit LED to aid set up, as well as a
convenient ‘pause/resume’ key, a particularly useful feature
during extended runs when it is necessary to access the gel
tank to monitor buffer levels and sample migration. Given its
high specification and remarkable versatility the CS-300V is
relatively inexpensive, and benefits from additional features
such as:
• a stackable design;
• rigorous in-built safety mechansims;
• automatic crossover;
• dual voltage compatibility.

Consort Power
Supplies
All Consort Maxi Series (EV200) power supplies have four
output terminals for up to four simultaneous runs. Powerful
microprocessor control allows complex programming, while
manual mode permits the setting of voltage, current, power
and time for routine electrophoretic runs. The parameters may
also be changed temporarily without interrupting the run.
Programming – up to 9 different programs, each with 9 steps,
can be stored in the non-volatile memory for future recall.
Timer – can be set to automatically terminate the run and
sound an alarm when the allocated time or volt hours has
elapsed.
Automatic cross-over – each model has constant voltage,
constant current and constant power capabilities with
automatic cross-over while showing which parameter is kept
constant.
Automatic recovery after mains failure – after restoration of
power, the instrument will automatically continue the run for
the remaining time.
Data Transfer – optional data acquisition/control software for
PC is available to visualise and examine the stored run details,
store and program the methods, add notes to the run, identify
the unit, copy or delete programs in the unit’s memory.
Safety precautions – the AC line is automatically disconnected
from the high voltage transformer when a ground leakage
path is detected protecting the user from potential shock.
Other safety features include protection against any overload
including accidental short circuit of the output and voltage
increases smoothly.
Consort Mini

omniPAC
Maxi CS-500V
With a maximum 500V, 800mA and 300W voltage, current
and power output, the omniPAC CS-500V MAXI is an excellent
general purpose power supply that fits the broadest range
of electrophoresis applications, and can run as many as four
units under a constant or programmable setting. Its capacity to
store up to 30 programmed files, each with 6 steps, makes the
CS-500V perfect for techniques that benefit from subtle and
gradual stepwise changes in the electrical parameters as the
run progresses, such as DGGE and large format vertical PAGE
using Cleaver Scientific’s VS20-DGGE and WAVE systems.
A large 2.6” LCD screen shows within 2 lines the real-time
values of the electrical parameters during the run, along with
the program file and individual step in operation, enabling the
user to appraise the entire run at a single glance. The CS-
500V MAXI is also equipped as standard with many features
associated with the omniPAC MIDI, including timer and
alarm, ‘pause / resume’ functionality, a stackable design and
enhanced in-built safety features.
omniPAC
Maxi CS-3AMP
At 300V, 3000mA, 300W, the omniPAC MAXI CS-3AMP
is designed for virtually all high current electrophoresis
applications. The CS-3AMP’s higher current output capability
is perfect for electroblotting units with high-intensity plate
electrodes, particularly Cleaver Scientific’s omniBLOT maxi,
VS20 WAVE and semi dry blotting systems. Electrotransfers
may be performed as timed runs in constant or programmable
mode to prevent overheating and buffer depletion, although a
run time extendable to a maximum 9999 minutes in constant
mode also favours overnight transfers undertaken at constant
low current in wire electrode systems. The two-line 2.6” LCD
screen allows the experimental parameters, program file and
step to be viewed within a single screen during each run, while
the CS-3AMP’s four power terminals and robust current and
power outputs make it suitable for high throughput SDS-PAGE
using multiple vertical systems. The CS-3AMP shares the same
standard features as the omniPAGE MAXI CS-500V.

Gel documentation is usually performed
in molecular biology laboratories whereby
nucleic acid and protein gels are imaged and
then documented and the DNA, RNA or
protein bands are identified, quantitated and
the results analysed. This is an important
step in many molecular biology techniques
and studies including cloning, mutation
analysis, protein identification, quantitation
and expression. Such techniques are
important stages in studies in infectious
diseases and cancer, drug development,
human genome analysis, cell structure
and function and studies on food and the
environment.
Originally Universities and research institutes
had a dark room within their departments
with a UV light source for ethidium bromide
stained DNA gels or with white light boxes
for Coomasie stained protein gels and
a simple Polaroid camera set up to take
pictures and produce a photo of the gels to
be stuck into lab books.
Gel documentation technology has since
been revolutionised with much more sensitive
camera systems with independent dark room
cabinets and computer gel analysis software
to document the results and allow in-depth
analysis of the bands or spots on the gels.
These also allow the simple generation of
publication quality images for sharing of
results in scientific journals.
Consequently, gel documentation is now
applicable to routine horizontal DNA
agarose gels, fluorescent sequencing gels,
preparative gels, colorimetric protein gels,
and chemiluminescent blots. By using
modern imaging and excitation technologies
gel documentation systems are now more
reliable, accurate and quantitative than ever
before and can be adapted for almost any
stain, dye, probe, antibody or fluorescent
protein.
Cleaver Scientific provides a comprehensive
range of gel documentation and imaging
systems to suit any application or budget.
Our range starts with the popular
microDOC™. Low cost systems which are
ideal to image routine horizontal DNA or
protein gels.
The new omnidoc systems contain a
highly sensitive camera and have convenient
features such as quick light source switching
for DNA and protein gels and wireless
downloading of images to PC, Laptop or
smart device.
We offer the full range of UVItec
systems which include high specification
models dedicated to Gel documentation,
chemiluminescence and fluorescence.
Finally we offer a full range of accessory
products including scanners, light sources,
crosslinkers and one and two dimension gel
software.

DUOVIEW UV/BLUE LIGHT TRANSILLUMINATOR
The duoVIEW transilluminator combines blue light epi-illumination with UV transillumination. Blue light excitation eliminates
concerns over user safety and minimises damage to nucleic acid samples, which compromises cloning efficiency.
The duoVIEW’s parallel configuration of two powerful LED arrays produces more uniform excitation than conventional
transilluminators, thus enabling gels containing SYBR Safe, SYBR Green and our own proprietary runSAFE stains to be
viewed at greater intensity. The duoVIEW also allows the user to switch between two UV wavelengths, at high or low
intensity, to view UV fluorescent gels; and may be used as a blue light transilluminator for the microDOC™.
SAFEVIEW TRANSILLUMINATORS
Like the duoVIEW, the safeVIEW blue light transilluminator also has a parallel configuration of two powerful LED arrays to
produce more uniform excitation than standard transilluminators. This enables gels containing blue-light fluorescent stains
to be viewed at greater intensity. The safeVIEW may be used either as a standalone blue light transilluminator or with the
microDOC™ as part of a complete gel documentation system.
Single/Dual Wavelength Transilluminators
Available in single and dual wavelength formats and in 21x21cm or 21x26cm sizes, Cleaver Scientific transilluminators
may be supplied individually or with the microDOC™ as part of a complete gel documentation system to visualise UV
fluorescent gels.
UV-TO-WHITE LIGHT CONVERTER PLATES
For use with UV transilluminators, allow visualisation of colorimetric protein gels, blots developed on X-ray film, and
microbial colonies.

DOC-BASIC are for entry-level and
basic application use. Both systems
are ideal for nucleic acid agarose
gels stained with ethdium bromide,
or runSAFE or SYBR green, and may
be used with a white light converter
or box for 1D colorimetric protein
gel imaging.
Although functional in design
to address modest budgets, the
microDOC™ and microDOCBASIC
do not lack in specification
or performance. Both systems are
manually operated and supplied
with a high resolution colour
digital camera. The microDOCBASIC
comprises a fully enclosed

upon opening, while a large front
TFT screen aids visualisation of the
gel. Optional 1D analysis software
is available.
The omniDOC and omniDOC-i
offer high performance gel
documentation and analysis at a
relatively low cost. By providing
many of the features used by
leading gel documentation brands,
each omniDOC system presents a
simple but sophisticated imaging
solution for most laboratories. A
high resolution 5 mega pixel camera
with slide-out UV transilluminator,
and optional blue epi-illumination
module and white light table, makes
both systems suitable for imaging
most fluorescent and colorimetric
gels.
In the omniDOC a USB port
connects the dark room assembly to
an external PC for control, whereas
for the omniDOC-i a front panel
touchscreen may be used for image
acquisition and auto exposure.
Complimentary acquisition and
analysis software is supplied on a

downloadable to a tablet or laptop
for remote image analysis from the
omniDOC-i.
Both systems benefit from a prefocused
camera that requires little
or no manual adjustment and four
filter options for different fluorescent
applications.
The microSCAN is an affordable
low-cost gel documentation system
for scanning colorimetric 1-D and
2-D protein gels, as well as blots and
TLC plates.
Control software allows rapid
generation of high quality images
that may be then imported into
analysis software, such as TotalLab
Quant or Phoretix 1D. Users may
choose between transmittance and
reflectance modes in colour and
greyscale, and select their required
resolution to a maximum 2400 dpi.
The advanced gel documentation
systems of Uvitec cover a much
broader range of imaging
applications to complement
the existing gel imaging
capabilities offered by the Cleaver
Scientific range. Each Uvitec gel
documentation system features a
high performance CCD camera with
remarkable sensitivity to generate
high resolution images of even the
faintest gels or blots, while optional
dedicated epi-illumination modules
provide the excitation for near
infrared (NIR), red, green and blue
(RGB) imaging applications.
‘One-touch’ image acquisition
software simplifies the gel
documentation process by fully
automating lens positioning, filter
selection and exposure to allow
quantitative results to be obtained
quickly and easily.
In addition to 1-D and 2-D nucleic
acid and protein gel imaging,
Uvitec systems may be supplied
to perform chemiluminescence,
coloured fluorescence, multi-plex,
and biofluorescence and thin layer
chromatography applications.

omniDOC
The omniDOC is the first of two new systems from Cleaver
Scientific offering high performance gel documentation and
analysis at a relatively low cost. By providing many of the
features used by leading gel documentation brands, but
without the added price premium, each omniDOC system
presents a simple but sophisticated imaging solution for
most laboratories. A high resolution 5 mega pixel camera
with slide-out UV transilluminator, and optional blue epi-illumination
module and white light table, makes the omniDOC
suitable for imaging most fluorescent and colorimetric gels,
while a USB port requires a cable to connect the dark room
assembly to an external PC for control. Imaging applications
are made easy by a pre-focused camera that requires little or
no manual adjustment, while simple one-click image acquisition
and analysis software guides the user through every
step of the gel documentation process. A front LED indicator
panel reveals at a glance the light source in use, whereas
a viewing screen with universal filter and spring-loaded
cover facilitates safe and convenient gel inspection.
omniDOCi
The omniDOCi shares all of the same features of the
standard omniDOC, but with the added benefit of wireless
connectivity to a remote laptop or tablet. Simply install
the omniDOC image acquisition and analysis software on
a laptop or tablet, place the gel on the transilluminator or
white light table within the darkroom, and then begin image
capture, using your preferred excitation source and filter,
either by ‘pressing’ the tabs on the omniDOC’s front panel
colour touchscreen, or by following the prompts within the
software on your laptop or tablet. Once image acquisition
is complete the gel may be analysed immediately using the
complimentary analysis software included, or saved for later
to perform analysis at a more convenient time and place.
The software is downloadable as an app to iPAD, and Windows
and Samsung Android tablets to provide full touchscreen
remote control, making the omniDOCi probably the
most portable and versatile imaging system on the market.

allowing only the important data
fields and images of choice to be
selected for final output
• Multiplex analysis
TotalLab Quant includes
TotalLab1D plus three modules for array
analysis; colony counting and 2D spot
measurement; and general featurebased
image analysis. The array analysis
module can automatically detect up
to 1536 wells or arrays spots, and
may also be used to quantify dot and
slot blots. Array analysis and Toolbox
modules also include multiplex analysis
functionalities.
Phoretix 1D is more advanced
analysis software used primarily for
band-pattern matching within individual
DGGE, SSCP and RFLP gels that are
important for cultivar experiments,
evolutionary biology and population
genetics. Phoretix 1D has a powerful
band matching feature, which is
flexible and easy to use, while visual
tools show the results of matching
and identify similarities within an
individual gel, including lane clustering
via dendrograms. A copy of TotalLab
Quant is included with Phoretix 1D.
Phoretix 1D Pro shares the same
analysis features as Phoretix 1D, but
with added database storage to provide
the ideal solution for generating and
manipulating large lane-comparison
datasets from multiple gels. Benefits
include:
• Long-term archiving and storage of
data from multiple gels
• Comparison of each lane with any
other lane within the database, with
the results presented as dendrograms
or tables that show all band and
lane similarities, thereby enabling
identification of lane relationships
across many different experiments
• Classification and identification of
unknown sample against a defined
library of known references that
can be easily shared between
co-workers and labs making
collaboration on large projects easier

omniPETTE
Variable Volume Single and Multichannel
Pipette
Ergonomically designed omniPETTE single and multichannel
pipettes feature slim handle, high accuracy and precision
rates combined with their tremendous robustness and very
competitive price.
Safety & Comfort
Distinctive handle of these pipettes with ejector pushbutton
located on the top of the finger rest and the volume counter
facing backwards offer their users the sense of comfort and
continuous control of the pipetting volume. omniPETTE single
channel pipettes feature PVDF shafts ensuring increased
chemical and mechanical durability of the product.
omniPETTE pipettes are available in wide range of volumes:
from 0.1 μl to 10000 μl.
Large Volume Display
Easy-to-read numbers
Accuracy and Precision
High technology design, and sophisticated space age materials
are used for our pipettes production. Each pipette is individually
tested (Quality Control Certificate included) on the most
precise electronic balances.
Smooth Adjustment of Pipette Volume
New pipetting mechanism allows for precise and effortless
setting of pipette volume. Winding the counter from min to
max volume can be performed with one hand in minimal time.
Multichannel Manifold
omniPETTE multichannels feature a revolutionary suspension
system which allows the shafts to retract slightly when they
are pressed against a row of pipette tips. Each shaft moves
independently, resulting in an even sealing force being applied
to all 8 or 12 tips. This ensures that all tips secured on their
individual shaft with the minimum of effort - and never fall off!
The suspension system not only ensures secure tip sealing but
also eliminates the common incidence of tips being jammed
on pipette outer shafts. The innovative ejection bar is curved,
allowing the tips to be pushed off in steps, therefore reducing
the amount of force required for ejection. For comfortable
pipetting in any direction improved omniPETTE manifold now
ejects tips within 360o.
UV Resistant
Crafted out of highly durable materials omniPETTE Series
Pipettes can be safely sterilized with UV radiation. Even
prolonged exposure to UV beams does not damage the plastic
and the de-coloration of the pipette parts is minimal.
Recalibration System
Calibration key provided with omniPETTE allows for quick and
accurate pipette recalibration.
Reliable Pipette – Tip System
Cleaver Scientific offers the wide range of pipette models.
Shafts of omniPETTE are designed to fit all popular tips. To
ensure outstanding precision and repeatability each Cleaver
Scientific pipette is manually calibrated. The performance of
every pipette is checked by gravimetric method and the results
of test are printed in pipette Quality Control Certificate.
Pipetting Never Felt So Good
omniPET is a revolutionary engine powered pipette filler
with LCD display designed for cordless work with glass or
plastic pipettes in the 0.5-100 ml range. While designing
the omniPET we made users convenience a priority.
Carefully modeled lightweight handle, together with
smooth pushbuttons and switches located “right where
they are needed” guarantee effortless pipetting even during
extensive use. For convenient storage our tool is equipped
with “rest wings”. LCD display indicates setting options and
level of battery charge.
Adjust It To Suit Your Work
Easily accessible switches of omniPET allow choosing
different operation mode depending on the volume of
pipette and viscosity of liquid. For liquid aspiration the user
can choose HIGH or LOW work speed and additionally
adjust the suction by the pressure applied to the trigger
button. Dispensing can be carried out by gravity (GRAV) or
supported by pump (BLOW) which empties the pipette with
blow out. The settings are shown on the LCD display.
No Worries About Safety
Many pipette fillers are not sufficiently protected against
overfilling. When an aggressive liquid enters the body of a
pipetting aid it may damage the tool or constitute a threat to
the users health. Therefore we have equipped the omniPET
not only with standard PTFE filters, but also a safety valve,
blocking any liquid from entering the unit. To protect your
samples from cross contamination, filters and pipette holders
can be easily exchanged and autoclaved.
• Suitable for 0.5 ml to 100 ml pipettes
• Ergonomically shaped handle
• LCD display
• Sensitive valves for precise work with low volume pipettes
• Low battery light indicator
• Protected by filter and safety valve
• Autoclavable nosepiece and pipette holder
• Charging stand
Always Ready for Action
Powerful, environmentally friendly Ni-MH battery enables
many hours of continuous work. The LCD display indicates
when omniPET should be recharged. You do not have to
stop your work. Just put the power supply jack in and load
your tool while working! omniPET battery is automatically
protected against overcharging by timing and thermal
systems so you do not need to worry about your tool while
leaving it for overnight charge. The omniPET is supplied with
comfortable charging stand.

The Cleaver Scientific RMC24
refrigerated micro centrifuge sets a
new standard in laboratory bench top
centrifugation. Its 24-place rotor and
high speed capability make the RMC24
the ideal centrifugation solution for
all molecular biology applications that
entail 1.5ml tubes and 0.2ml tubes
and strips. A self-explanatory LCD
control panel provides full user-control
over speed, time and temperature,
as well as a wipe-clean surface for
easy decontamination, while speed
adjustments in increments as low as
100 rpm or 100 x g ensure precise
control to a maximum 13,500 rpm, or
17,135 x g rcf.
Centrifugation may be either timed
between 30 seconds and 99 minutes
or performed continuously, whereas
a ‘quick’ key is available for short
spins or cell pelleting. The RMC24’s
powerful refrigeration system
maintains sample temperatures as
low as -10°C and takes less than
8 minutes to reach 4°C from room
temperature. A brushless motor drive
allows the rotor to achieve its set
speed quickly and effortlessly, while a
computer-controlled isolation system
ensures that the centrifuge operates
free of vibration with a slight load
imbalance; although shut down occurs
automatically, within 18 seconds
and without sample disruption, if a
significant imbalance is detected.
The unique design of the 24-place
rotor allows easy access to all sample
tubes; and individual tube slots within
the solid aluminium rotor support each
tube along its length and retain sample
in the event of tube failure. The rotor
accepts 1.5 and 2.0ml tubes directly
and smaller 0.5ml tubes through
the purchase of specialist adaptors;
whereas an optional StripSpin™
adaptor is connected to the top of
the rotor to spin 0.2ml tubes and
PCR strips. The RMC24 rotor sits
on a tapered shaft so that it may be
removed easily to clean and autoclave.

Cleaver Scientific’s new variable speed Vortex Mixer combines
fast, efficient mixing with minimal vibration. Unlike
other vortex mixers using elliptical orbits, the CSLVORTEX
true circular orbit facilitates uniform sample-vortexing even
at low speed. The CombiHead™ head, which is supplied
as standard, accepts many different tube sizes, while the
unique overmoulding technology used in its manufacture
provides a sturdy plastic core with non-slip TPE that fits
optional heads for microplates, microtubes, PCR strip tubes,
15ml and 50ml tubes and blood vials.
CSLVORTEX may be used in ‘touch’ or continuous mode:
‘touch’ mode being activated by simply depressing the
sample head and then stopped by releasing the pressure.
An optimised counter balance system within the CSLVORTEX
minimises vibration and movement of the unit during
operation, whereas its lightweight construction and small
footprint allows it to be readily transported and used in areas
where space is restricted. The CSLVORTEX is also safe for
use in temperature controlled environments, and may be
used within a cold room.
features:
• Powerful, reliable motor with optimised
counter balance
• Circular orbit for effective vortexing at any
speed
• CombiCup head accepts a variety of tube sizes
• Versatile head attachment accessories for
microplates and different tube sizes
features:
• The perfect speed and tilt for blotting and gel
staining
• Three-dimensional motion
• Designed for use with Blot Boxes
Typical Applications
Mixing of samples in tubes between 0.2ml to 50ml volume.
Typical Applications
Staining and destaining of gels. Incubating blots.
These gel staining/blotting boxes are available in 4 sizes
and are the ideal accessory for incubating blots or staining
gels. The two smaller sized boxes are available in packs of
ten. The smallest box has dimensions of 9.1 x 6.6cm and a
capacity for 3-5ml of solution.
This is ideal for incubating cut blot strips. The next box in
the range holds 6-10ml of solution and is appropriate for
mini gels and blots up to 11.7 x 8.9cm. Two larger boxes,
available in single packs, can be used for staining gels or incubating
blots up to 12 x 12cm or 20 x 16.5cm respectively.
The Cleaver Scientific MiniMix combines the motions of orbital
shaking and rocking to produce a gentle, but thorough,
3-D action that is perfect for antibody incubation of western
blots and staining gels.
The pitch and speed of the Cleaver Scientific MiniMix are
optimised to generate a tilt angle that is large enough to
ensure uniform distribution of solutions, yet small enough
to prevent the centre of the blot from drying out. This has
the added benefit of allowing users to work with minimal
volumes, thus conserving valuable probes and antibodies.
A non-slip rubber mat keeps the boxes in place on the agitating
platform, which, along with the housing, is very easy
to clean and decontaminate after use. The MiniMix’s compact
and light weight design allows it to be moved around
the lab where needed. It is also safe for use in an incubator
or cold room for temperature controlled reactions.

Faster and with enhanced features,
the new GTC96S advanced
thermal cycler delivers exceptional
performance at an affordable price.
An improved protocol optimisation
process utilises Flexible Temperature
technology to segregate the 96-well
plate into six discrete (4x4-well)
temperature zones, made easily
distinguishable by blue and black
squares. Temperature selection is no
longer automated and is entirely in
the hands of the operator over a 24°C
advanced range, anywhere between
4 and 96°C. This enables the operator
to optimise PCR by testing 6 different
temperatures simultaneously in just
one thermal cycler run. This is ideal for
Genotyping work.
With heating and cooling rates of
5°C/s and 3.5°C/s respectively, the
precision temperature control of
the GTC96S minimises temperature
overshooting and undershooting
between individual stages within each
PCR cycle, resulting in faster run times
and greater efficiency.
Programming is both quick and simple
through a large user-friendly interface,
while pre-programmed methods for
Optimisation, Touchdown and Time
Increments make set-up obvious
even to first time users. A heated
lid, which is fully adjustable to apply
optimal pressure to 0.2ml tubes and
microplates, may be programmed to
hold different temperatures between
60 and 65°C and 100 to 115°C.
Additional advantages offered by the
new heated lid are its slide-in slideout
design for safe access to samples,
and its prevention of condensation
formation during overnight cooling.
Typical Applications
Gene cloning and analysis. Gene expression analysis. Mutational screening
features:
• Compatible with 96-
well plates, 0.2ml tubes
and tube strips
• Protocol optimization
selectable from 1 to
24°C across the entire
temperature control
range from 4-99°C
• Improved protocol
optimisation aided by
Flexible Temperature
technology allows
simultaneous testing of
6 different annealing
temperatures for
optimum yield of the
desired PCR product
less nonspecific
artefacts
• Precision temperature
control increases both
speed and efficiency
• Intuitive programming
through selfexplanatory
userfriendly
interface
• 3-year warranty The NEW GTC96S
Thermal Cycler at a Personalised price!
Blue and black squares on the thermal
cycler block aid identification of each of the
six 4x4-well temperature zones.
Intuitive user-friendly interface facilitates
manual selection of different temperatures
in each of the 4x4-well zones, for full user
control during PCR optimisation. Flexible temperature technology provides
ability to run multiple samples with
different annealing temperatures in one
run. This is ideal for genotyping.
