Electrophoresis is used in laboratories to separate macromolecules based on their charges. The technique normally applies a negative charge called cathode so anionic protein molecules move towards a positive charge called anode.
Overview
- Condition: New
Features:
- Size and Charge:
- Molecules separate based on their size and charge, with smaller molecules moving faster through the gel.
- Visualization and Identification:
- After separation, molecules can be visualized using staining or other detection methods, enabling identification of specific molecules.
