About the XCell SureLock Mini-Cell 
The XCell SureLock Mini-Cell is a vertical mini-protein gel electrophoresis system compatible with all Invitrogen mini precast gels and Surecast handcast gels. The Mini-Cell is simple, sturdy, and easy to use. Each XCell SureLock Mini-Cell can accommodate up to two gels per run. Run times may vary depending on buffer conditions and power supplies used.

About Novex Tricine gels
Novex Tricine gels provide separation of low molecular weight proteins and peptides. The Tricine system is a modification of the tris-glycine discontinuous buffer system developed by Schaegger and von Jagow specifically for peptides and low molecular weight proteins. In this system the tricine replaces the glycine in the running buffer, resulting in more efficient stacking and de-stacking of low molecular weight proteins and higher resolution of smaller peptides.

Transfer
For transfer of proteins to a membrane, we recommend using Novex Tris-Glycine Transfer Buffer (LC3675) for traditional wet transfer using the XCell II Blot Module (EI9051). Alternatively, rapid semi-dry transfer can be performed using the Invitrogen Power Blotter or rapid dry transfer using the iBlot 3 Gel Transfer Device (IB31001).
