Electrophoresis separates charged particles, like proteins or DNA, based on their size and charge by applying an electric field. It’s a versatile technique used in various fields, including molecular biology and biochemistry, to analyze and purify biomolecules.
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.
