Where Experion Fits
Where Experion Fits

The Experion automated electrophoresis system fits into many workflows, including before real-time qPCR, protein interaction experimentation with the ProteOn XPR36 interaction array system, or a variety of microarray experiments. It can also be used with sample preparation and optimization or the purification of proteins using laboratory-scale or process-scale chromatography.

The Experion automated electrophoresis station performs all of the steps of gel-based electrophoresis in one compact, durable unit. It automates analysis by combining electrophoresis, staining, destaining, band detection, and imaging into a single, 30 min step. It's an electrophoresis cell, power supply, and imager built into a single device and is designed for easy, precise operation:

  • Highly accurate laser provides precise fluorescence detection
  • USB port allows easy installation and maximum usability
  • Built-in power supply reduces cost and saves bench space

The following types of kits are available for analysis of proteins, RNA, and DNA:

  • Experion starter kits
  • Experion protein analysis kits
  • Experion RNA analysis kits
  • Experion DNA analysis kits

The Experion automated electrophoresis system can be used upstream and downstream of a number of other nucleic acid- and protein-application focused products from Bio-Rad.
