Better Gel Comb

thingiverse

Visualize DNA in style with a better gel comb. The better gel comb fits in most medium-sized gel rigs (if not, simply increase or decrease the length of the arms to desired fit). Spaced so that both 8- and 12- tip multi-channel pipettes can easily fill a single row (with one extra well for ladder). The ends taper to prevent samples from become too diffuse. Experimental Option: try it for yourself by printing out GelCombExperimental.stl, which has alternating tapered and straight wells. Or just take a look at the gel image above. Because PLA denatures under heat, users should take extra care to ensure their media is cool enough to handle with exposed skin before pouring.
