Abstract:

An electrophoretic cell comprising a base member defining a planar support surface is disclosed. A layer of electrophoretic gel medium is disposed on the planar plastic support surface. A glass top face is disposed over the layer of gel. The gel lies between the top face and the base member. Either the top face or the base member is made of transparent material. A plurality of reservoirs are defined between the top face and the base member by the top face and base member. The reservoirs are defined by a plurality of walls disposed between the top face and the base member, and may be integral with the base member. Two opposite edges of the electrophoretic cell are provided with a band of material which is adhered thereto whereby additional strength is provided to the electrophoretic cell.

Abstract:

A glass cutter is provided having a rectangular body preferably of a transparent plastic. A cutter wheel is mounted inward from the forward edge of the body. The lower surface of the forward portion of the body is inclined upwardly and outwardly to the upper surface of the body to allow the glass cutter to be held at an angle to glass being cut. Additionally, the body of the glass cutter may be of a transparent material and may include an aperture to facilitate viewing a line along which a cut is to be made.
