Novex Tris-Glycine Gels do not contain SDS and can be used to run your proteins in native or in denatured form. For denatured proteins, we recommend using tris-glycine SDS sample buffer and a tris-glycine SDS running buffer. For native proteins, we recommend using a tris-glycine native sample buffer and a tris-glycine native running buffer.
Novex Tris-Glycine Gels use a tris-glycine discontinuous buffer system with three ions primarily involved:
WedgeWell format wells are wedge-shaped wells that increase the sample loading capacity, allowing up to 60 µL and 100 µL of samples to be loaded in the mini and midi gel wells, respectively. WedgeWell Midi format gels that combine the higher sample throughput of wide format gels with the higher sample loading capacity of WedgeWells are now available. Key benefits include:

WedgeWell format well increases the well sample loading capacity, helping prevent sample spillover and cross-contamination.
Figure 1. Increased sample volume capacity of Novex Tris-glycine midi WedgeWell format gels. (A) To compare gel spillover, increasing volumes (20–60 μL) of a fluorescent protein ladder were loaded in every other lane of a Novex WedgeWell Tris-glycine midi 20-well gel (left) or Bio-Rad 4–20% Criterio TGX Protein Gel (right). Sample spillover in Bio-Rad’s gel is seen in lanes adjacent to the 40–60 μL loading lanes.
The amount of protein you can load into a protein gel well affects the ability to detect the protein following protein gel electrophoresis or western blotting; the more you can load, the easier it is to detect. The protein load capacities of Invitrogen Novex Tris-Glycine Bis-Tris precast midi gels run in the SureLock Tandem Midi Gel Tank were compared against Bio-Rad Criterion midi gels run in a Bio-Rad Criterion Cell Midi Cell Tank using manufacturer instructions. Decreasing amounts of HEK 293 cell lysate prepared in RIPA lysis buffer (48–0.5 µg total protein) were denatured in the respective manufacturer’s sample buffer and subjected to electrophoresis using manufacturer instructions. The table below lists the samples, protein mass, and %RIPA buffer loaded in each lane.
Invitrogen Novex Tris-Glycine gels outperformed Bio-Rad gels at higher lysate loads with blots from Bio-Rad gels showing band loss and smearing at higher loads for all targets investigated.

Novex Tris-Glycine Plus, Midi, WedgeWell format gels offer increased loading capacity and excellent protein separation.
Figure 2. The protein and RIPA buffer load capacity of Novex 4–20% Tris-Glycine Plus, Midi, 12+2 well WedgeWell format gel exceeds that of Bio-Rad gels. After loading and electrophoresis, a Novex 4–20% Tris-Glycine Plus midi, 12+2 well, WedgeWell format gel, and a Bio-Rad 4–20% Criterion TGX , 12+2 well, midi gel were stained with SimplyBlue SafeStain. The Bio-Rad gel succumbs to protein and lysis buffer overload above a load of 20 µg protein, resulting in streaking and smearing. Staining near the wells indicates some protein has had difficulty entering the gel. The Novex 4–20% Tris-Glycine Plus midi gel provides better protein band sharpness and resolution versus the Bio-Rad 4–20% TGX gel under these loading conditions.
Figure 3. Western blots using Novex 4–20% Tris-Glycine Plus midi gels display sharper bands at greater protein and RIPA lysis buffer loads than Bio-Rad 4–20% TGX midi gels. A Novex 4–20% Tris-Glycine Plus midi gel, 12+2 well, was loaded with decreasing total protein amount of HEK293 lysate, subjected to electrophoresis in a SureLock Tandem Midi Gel Tank and transferred onto a 0.45 µm PVDF membrane using the SureLock Tandem Blot Module. In parallel, a Bio-Rad 4-20% TGX midi gel, 12+2 well, was subjected to electrophoresis in a Criterion Midi Cell Tank and transferred onto a 0.45 µm PVDF membrane using the Criterion Blotter. Both membranes were analyzed for total protein using the No-Stain Protein Labeling Reagent, followed by chemiluminescent immunodetection of three targets: Vinculin, α-Tubulin, and p23. The Bio-Rad blot shows streaking, bowing of bands above 24 µg protein, and bleed-over into the ladder lane for total protein analysis. With immunoblotting, the Bio-Rad blot shows band loss and smearing at higher loads for all targets. For immunodetection: membranes were blocked for 1 hour in 1X Blocker FL Fluorescent Blocking Buffer. For chemiluminescent detection: the membranes were probed overnight with a mixture of primary antibodies diluted in blocking solution: Rabbit-anti Vinculin (1:30,000), Rat anti-α Tubulin (1:15,000), and Mouse-anti p23 (1:60,000) followed by an incubation with secondary antibodies in 1X Blocker FL: Donkey anti-Rabbit HRP (1:5,000), Donkey anti-Rat HRP (1:30,000), and Donkey anti-Mouse HRP (1:240,000) for 1 hour. Membranes were incubated for 5 minutes with SuperSignal West Dura Extended Duration Substrate and imaged for the same amount of time on an iBright Imaging System.
