Overview
Researchers at the University of Maryland have invented a new gel-cutting device for use in molecular biology.This device, the Bandmaster, is unlike any other gel-cutting device currently available in that it allows accurate viewing of the band from above, which can greatly reduce the possibility of contamination. Unlike most other devices, the Bandmaster matches the shape of standard gel combs, allows for the retrieval of large sample yields, and provides contaminant-free results essential in molecular biology.
There is high demand for band-cutting devices that provide high yields.
The University of Maryland is looking for a commercial partner to bring the Bandmaster prototype to market. For additional information please contact the University of Maryland’s Office of Technology Commercialization, [email protected] or 301-405-3947.
