We have been succesfully using pre-cast Novex NuPAGE Mini Gels (8X8X0.1cm) as a pre-separation and sample visualization step prior to nanoLC/MS/MS for e.g. protein ID. Now we would like to move to a smaller format, ideally shorter and/or thinner. Of course we could shorten the runtime on the gel, but in different hands that will be a somewhat subjective approach. Are there commercially available formats with smaller and/or thinner pre-cast gels that people are successfully using? We are currently using 4-12% gels and Coomassie staining as a generic approach.
