ER490 Versatile Microchip Electrophoresis Kit

System for microchip electrophoresis
Floating, gated or pinched injections
C4D electrodes on the platform for versatility

Overview
Applications
More Information

The ER490 is a system for microchip electrophoresis experiments. It includes contactless conductivity detection (C4D).
Unlike the ER455, the ER490 system has the C4D electrodes on the ET121 platform instead of on the chip, making the system more versatile. The system includes two Zeonor microfluidic chips (ET195-2); chips with a similar user-developed design can be used with this system.

The system includes PowerChrom software for data collection and analysis, and QuadSequencer software for controlling the HVS unit for experiments with floating, gated or pinched injections.

The ER490 includes:

ER815 C4D Detector with PowerChrom software
ER430 High Voltage Sequencer
EC230 High Voltage Cables
ET121 Microchip Platform with C4D Electrodes, with two ET195-2 Zeonor Chips
EC020 Standard Test Solutions
ET067 Lead Wire Clamp

A procedure using the ER490 can been seen here.

The system does NOT include a safety interlock and this should be made by the customer.
