Maintenance
Mini-PROTEAN Tetra tank and lid,
Rinse thoroughly with distilled water
electrode assembly, companion after
every use. assembly, casting stand,
and frame
Rinse thoroughly with distilled water
electrode after every use
Glass plates and combs Wash with a laboratory detergent, then
rinse thoroughly with distilled water.
Limit submersion of spacer plates
in strongly basic solutions, such as
>100 mM NaOH, to less than 24 hr.
Limit submersion in chromic-sulfuric
acid glass cleaning solution to 2–3 hr.
Prolonged submersion compromises
the integrity of the adhesive.
To preserve the longevity of the
adhesive bond, avoid extended
submersion (>5 days) in cleaning
solution made from Bio-Rad cleaning
concentrate (catalog #161-0722) or
other strongly basic detergents.
