PROBLRMS WITH BIO-RAD SEQUI-GEN

[txpljfg at UABCVSR.CVSR.UAB.EDU]

We have had a similar experience.  Ususally some acrylamide will
accumulate in the top reservoir when we have new people using it.  The
best solution that we have found is to remove the accumulated
acrylamide with a bent coat hanger and pray that the platinum wire
doesn't get busted.  So far so good.  Has anyone else found a better
solution?
