Electrophoresis Gels Product Information

NUView

NUView is a patent pending UV based stain.  NuSep has incorporated NUView into the Tris-Glycine iGels and the Long Life Gels range as a way of quickly visualising your proteins.  The beauty of NUView is that you can visualise your proteins within 2 minutes of completing a run and this visualisation does not change or interfere with any other downstream process.  Using NUView you can photograph your gel post the gel run to create a permanent record.  After this visualisation you can blot, probe or stain in the full knowledge of your samples location and concentration.

NUView is particularly useful when running an MF10 or blotting before analyzing with expensive probes.  In addition, when blotting you can verify sample transfer by visualising your sample before and after blotting.  This allows you to estimate the amount of protein transfer without fixing your proteins in the gel. NUView gives you approximately the same sensitivity as Coomassie blue staining and appears to provide greater sensitivity for membrane proteins.

 NuSep is a leader in high-quality pre-cast gels. In fact, we have a strong history of product innovation in analytical separations. Our founder, Dr Joel Margolis, is a pioneer in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and the inventor of gradient PAGE and transverse PAGE. In 1969, he published one of the first definitive papers on two-dimensional electrophoresis.

Building on the great success of our founder, NuSep continues the tradition of innovation. Holding patents for our unique cassette design, new polymers, and production process, we are able to provide the highest quality products for the study of life.

Our patented gel products undergo rigorous quality control to ensure superior performance and reproducibility in a variety of electrophoresis systems. Pre-cast gels are manufactured to exacting specifications, offering the end user:

  • Exceptional resolution
  • Shortened running times
  • Ease of use
  • Extended shelf life
  • Life Gels also offers a wide array of convenient and affordable gel accessories:
    • Specially formulated buffers
    • Ultra-sensitive and rapid stains

All of these products make it easier for you to enable life through science.

Our goal is to improve human life by providing the life science market with gels of unparalleled quality, utility, and convenience, making it simpler to study life in all its intricacies.
