Schablone und Verfahren zu deren Verwendung

An improvement in the immunofixation electrophoresis procedure for detecting proteins in serum, urine or cerebral spinal fluids. Samples are placed on a gel (10) and subjected to electrophoresis for resolving or separating proteins. Thereafter, antisera are applied to the sample areas through openings (110) located on a template (50) The template includes projections (90) and, the template substantially precludes cross-contamination and the adverse effects of ambient conditions on the integrity of the fluid, such as by the projections contacting, depressing or cutting into the gel to form closed cavities.
