Owl™ S3S Aluminum-Backed Sequencers

Optimal Size: The Owl™ S3S is the most common size for manual sequencing, offering the ideal dimensions for separation.

Key Features:

• • Floating Aluminum Heat Sink: Engineered to minimize the risk of plate cracking during runs, ensuring durability and reliability.
• • Upper Buffer Chamber (UBC): Utilizes minimal buffer and features an inline drain port for easy drainage into a removable bottle.
• • Removable Lower Buffer Chamber (LBC): Facilitates straightforward buffer disposal, enhancing user convenience.
• • Side Clamps Design: Press gel plates against a gasket-seated UBC, providing uniform pressure across the plate and forming a leakproof seal for flat, even banding patterns.
• • Ease of Use: Clamps conveniently slide over glass plates, allowing for quick setup and removal of gels.
