Optimal dispersant for gel casting using CPTi powder (plasma atomized, <45 micron)?

Wian Erasmus @Wian-Erasmus

21 November 2021 0 6K Report

Good day fellow researchers.

I am currently investigating the following gel casting system:

Solvent: distilled water (pH = 7.06)

Monomer: MAM

Cross linker: MBAM

Initiator: APS

Catalyst: TEMED

I am investigating different monomer: crosslinker ratios for gel casting of plasma atomized commercially pure titanium (

Why my agarose gel staining sometimes looks not homogenic but like gradient (see the figure)?

I am worried about this overexposure of the upper part of the gel in the picture. Is it possible that this is the result of too much concentration of ethidium bromide? Why is there such a big...
