Once your gel has set-up, the comb is
removed and the sample is loaded into the wells using a
nifty Pipetman like this. You can dial in any setting you'd
like (mine is set to 13 microliters) and load the gel. One
other thing that is added to the gel is a reagent which
sneaks its way into the DNA sample as it runs through the
gel and allows the sample to be visualized later on a UV
light box. It will glow a lovely shade of orange/pink not
unlike a suit I have. A bit too colorful for the FBI but
maybe if I ever work in the public sector...
