Electrophoresis is a method used by scientists to separate and analyze macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, and proteins based on their size, charge, and other characteristics. Scientists use electrophoresis to study these molecules in more detail to understand their properties and functions better. This is an essential technique in the fields of molecular biology, genetics, genetic engineering, and bioengineering
Overview
- Condition: New
Features:
- Charged Particles:
- The technique relies on the inherent charge of biomolecules, like proteins and nucleic acids, allowing them to move in the electric field.
- Size and Charge:
- Molecules separate based on their size and charge, with smaller molecules moving faster through the gel.
