Our Approach To
Gradient Forming
When we first introduced the Gradient Master in 1985, there were many approaches to gradient forming such as self-forming gradients, freezing and thawing homogeneous solutions, diffusion of step gradients, the 2-chamber device, and the syringe pump. Virtually all of these techniques were slow and unreliable, so we set out to speed up the process and make it more reproducible. The Gradient Master is the result. Starting with 6 empty tubes, you can form 6 identical gradients in as little as 10 min, producing gradients that are more reproducible than any other gradient forming technique, made right before you use them.
