Introduction
A pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) system is a laboratory system used to separate the large deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules, such as the whole chromosomes and the large fragments, by the electrophoresis with the alternately pulsed electric fields, and it is used in the molecular biology, the microbiology, and the research laboratories for the analysis of the large DNA. In the conventional gel electrophoresis, the large DNA molecules migrate at a similar rate regardless of the size, and the separation is limited; the pulsed field gel electrophoresis overcomes this by the application of the alternately pulsed electric fields from the different directions, which forces the large DNA molecules to reorient and to migrate through the gel at the size-dependent rates, enabling the separation of the large molecules, and the PFGE system consists of the electrophoresis chamber with the multiple electrodes, the power supply that produces the pulsed fields, a cooling system, and the gel and the imaging equipment; the PFGE system is used for the separation and the analysis of the large DNA fragments, for the analysis of the bacterial chromosomes, for the typing of the bacterial strains in the epidemiology, for the analysis of the yeast and the fungal chromosomes, for the size determination of the large DNA, and for many other applications, and it is an essential technique for the analysis of the large DNA. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis systems are used in the microbiology laboratories, in the molecular biology laboratories, in the epidemiological research, and for many other applications. With their separation of the large DNA, pulsed field gel electrophoresis systems are essential for the large DNA analysis.

FAQ
Q1: What scenarios is this system used for?
A: It separates very large DNA fragments and chromosomes by periodically changing the electric field in a gel for molecular typing and research.
Q2: What standards does it comply with?
A: It follows laboratory electrical safety IEC 61010 and related GB/T standards, with field and timing verified. We confirm the stated performance during final inspection and can supply a certificate of conformity together with supporting documents for audit purposes.
Q3: What is the warranty?
A: It carries a 12 to 24 month warranty covering the system. Damage from misuse is excluded.
Q4: Is it hard to operate?
A: It requires trained staff for gel preparation, protocols and staining. We provide a manual and training.
Q5: What is the lead time?
A: Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.
Q6: Is calibration required?
A: Performance should be verified periodically using calibrated reference standards, with results logged in the equipment record. Most users perform this check every 6 to 12 months or according to their internal quality schedule. We provide the procedure, reference materials and formal calibration service if required.
Q7: Are consumables universal?
A: Gels and reagents are standard, while modules are system-specific. Ongoing cost includes reagents.
Q8: Can it be customized?
A: Yes, several configurations are available. Options include chamber size, field programs and cooling. We can discuss further custom requirements, confirm feasibility and advise any effect on the schedule before the order is confirmed.
Q9: Is installation included?
A: No installation is required for this unit. It is ready to run after a simple power connection and the leveling steps shown in the manual. We supply a detailed operation guide and online setup videos, and on-site commissioning can be arranged separately if your facility requires it.
Q10: What samples are compatible?
A: It handles prepared large DNA samples within the gel and field. It is not for small DNA suited to standard electrophoresis, proteins, or non-electrophoretic samples.
