Gel electrophoresis


Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE)
An electrophoresis technique for separation of large DNA. Alternating electrical field is applied to run DNA through a low density agarose gel matrix.

Gel electrophoresis
The process of separating charged species by subjecting them to a voltage gradient. A gel (made of agarose or polyacrylamide) provides mechanical support and prevents mixing of the molecules being separated.

Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE)
A method for separating DNA fragments according to their mobilities under increasingly denaturing conditions (usually increasing formamide/urea concentrations).

Agarose gel electrophoresis. A matrix composed of a highly purified form of agar that is used to separate larger DNA and RNA molecules ranging 20,000 nucleotides. (See Electrophoresis.) Alleles.

a technique for transferring DNA fragments separated by agarose gel electrophoresis to a nitrocellulose filter on which specific DNA fragments can be detected using specific radioactive DNA probes; devised by E. Southern ...

If the region between primers A and B contains a restriction site that is polymorphic, the PCR product can be digested with the enzyme and the size of the digestion products analyzed by gel electrophoresis.
Full article >>>

The DNA is digested using restriction enzymes and separated using gel electrophoresis as described above.
The fragments on the gelatin are transferred to a filter by blotting.

The gel can be made so that its pores are just the right dimensions for separating molecules within a specific range of sizes and shapes. Smaller fragments usually travel further than large ones. The process is sometimes called gel electrophoresis.
