Description

The IBI STS-45i sequencing unit has a complete list of features that has made it a favorite in laboratories worldwide

The STS-45i sequencer is unequalled in ease of use, safety, and value, now and for the future. Owners of the IBI STS-45 sequencing unit can take advantage of the new upgrade kit to convert to the Easy-Turn Knobs.

Features
Easy-Turn Knobs: The easy-turn knobs make creating that perfect seal between the gel and the glass plate quick and easy. These knobs are designed for ease of use, and create perfect pressure to prevent leaking and overtightening. Removable lower buffer tank allows the user to dispose of buffer without moving the unit. Baffles in the lower tank allow the tank to be transported easily and without spillage. Interlocking safety lids: Both lower and upper chambers feature a hinged, interlocking safety lid. The lids allow quick and easy access to the buffer chamber, and maximizes user safety by reducing shock hazards and blocking beta emissions. Patented Slant-Back design: With the slant-back design, the IBI STS-45i sequencer assembles with ease. The design ensures that the glass plates remain in place during assembly. The built-in aluminum Thermoplaate distributes heat evenly, eliminating "smiles", "frowns", and other thermal artifacts that make sequence data difficult to interpret. The unique white background of the thermoplastic makes for easy viewing of dye migration, and its epoxy coating makes it electrically inert for increased user safety. 96-well capacity maximizes the amount of dta from each sequencing gel. The 96-well capacity accommodates 24 templates on a single gel, resolving up to 6,000 bases (6kb) of sequencing data per run. Mylar spacers and combs: The IBI STS-45i sequencer's combs and spacers are specifically designed to be extremely durable and resistant to cracking and warpping. Mylar is impermeable to oxygen, allowing acrylamide gels to polymerize cleanly against spacers and combs. PVC wedge spacers are available if required.
