Hi there,
We're experiencing a problem with the sharkstooth combs for the ABI
377, and any suggestions would be much appreciated.
We're finding that our wells have started leaking when we load the
gel, and the problem seems to be that the well formed is perhaps too
wide, making the teeth loose in the well. We don't get acrylamide
in the well, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the clamping.
New combs work fine, which suggests that there might be some build-up
on the older combs?
Has anyone experienced this? If so, any suggestions on the best way
to "strip" the combs?
Many thanks,
-Samantha Donninger
