Bio-Rad Model 538 Gel Dryer designed for efficient drying of electrophoresis gels in molecular biology labs.
The Bio-Rad Model 538 Gel Dryer is a specialized laboratory instrument designed for drying electrophoresis gels used in molecular diagnostics and biotechnological applications. This model is widely used in molecular biology and bioprocessing workflows to preserve DNA, RNA, and protein gels for documentation or subsequent analysis.
Key features of the Bio-Rad Model 538 include:
This gel dryer is an essential tool widely adopted by researchers in cell imaging, fluorescence analysis, and biomedical engineering applications requiring reliable gel handling post-electrophoresis. The Bio-Rad Model 538 provides a robust solution that meets the stringent requirements of laboratory quality control and biotechnology research environments.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
