Electrophoresis is a technique that uses an electric field to separate charged molecules, like DNA, RNA, or proteins, based on their size and charge. The molecules move through a gel or other medium, with smaller molecules typically moving faster than larger ones.
Overview
- Condition: New
Features:
- Electric Field:
- A fundamental principle involves applying an electric field to the sample, which causes charged particles to migrate towards the opposite electrode.
- Separation Medium:
- Electrophoresis utilizes a medium, like a gel, to separate molecules based on their mobility through the matrix.
