Abstract

A multiple electrophoresis method and apparatus for migrating and transferring macromolecules in a vessel (10) containing a plurality of parallel elongate electrodes (14), membranes (22) disposed vertically in the vessel between the columns of electrodes (14), and an electrophoresis gel which is inserted in the vessel in liquid form and which is subsequently solidified to perform electrophoresis. When the electrophoresis is completed, the gel is liquefied, dissolved, or decomposed, and the membranes (22) onto which the macromolecules have been transferred are withdrawn from the vessel.
