gels

This work is currently being undertaken. More information will be provided when available.


Gel electrophoresis measures the distance the sample (in this case DNA) can move along a system, and therefore the size and/or shape of the molecule. It works by sending an electric current through the system, and the charged molecule moves from the gel. The smaller and less bulky the molecule the further it can move.
