Re: [DIYbio] Capillary electrophoresis that I made but can be improved

Hi Gordana,

Very interesting your project.

I was curious to know more about the source of high voltage.

In the past, I thought to mount a capillary electrophoresis, but I confess I gave up because I was afraid of working with a high-voltage source.

I've seen capillary electrophoresis projects that used a high-voltage source removed from CRT monitor (flyback).

The HV source you used stores any charge when turned off?

Could you provide more details about how you identified the input and output polarity of the power supply?

You put the source in a Faraday cage to protect the detection circuit from interference or to protect the user?

Congratulations.

Best Regards,
Markos

Here is a capillary electrophoresis setup that I made http://www.instructables.com/id/Capillary-Electrophoresis/ . Ultimately I think it can be used as a replacement for gel electrophoresis for bio DIY but I am not going to able to work on it next 2 months so I kinda wanted to just update you people, in case someone wants to take their own take on it. Also I think some parts can be used for standard gel electrophoresis (using syringe needles instead of platinum electrodes could possibly work even though higher current in GE could be the culprit).
