Abstract
Electrophoresis is performed simultaneously in a multitude of slab gels in a single cell that supports the slab gels vertically and parallel to each other while immersed in a buffer solution, and that applies a voltage to all gels simultaneously through a single pair of plate electrodes. Temperature control is achieved by circulating the buffer solution upward through the cell, entering near the base of each slab gel and leaving near the top, and cooling the circulating buffer solution with a tube heat exchanger positioned on the floor of the cell.
