Multichannel Preparative Electrophoresis System

Abstract

The invention provides an electrophoresis cassette, methods for making the electrophoresis cassette, and method of fractionating analytes from a sample based upon electrophoretic mobility in a single application of the sample to an electrophoretic system.

1 . An electrophoresis cassette comprising:
 a plate including at least one macrofluidic separation channel, the channel having a first physically and electrically isolated portion and a second physically and electrically isolated portion; and   an elution chamber positioned on one or another of the physically and electrically isolated portions, the chamber comprising at least one an elution cavity and an analyte-impermeable barrier.   
     
     
         2 - 85 . (canceled)
