GEL ELECTROPHORESIS Presented by sweety gupta (M pharm, Pharmacology) BLDEa s ssm college of pharmacy and research centre, Vijayapur Date of Presentation- 25-05-2021 Time of Presentation- 11am-11-30am
Contents- Principle of Gel electrophoresis. Instrumentation and Reagents. Working of Gel electrophoresis. Factors affecting separation in Gel electrophoresis. Applications of Gel electrophoresis.
Principle- Method of separating DNA, RNA and Protein on the basis of size. It involves electrical field.
The molecules travel through the pores in the gel at a speed that is inversely related to their lengths. Means that a small DNA molecule will travel a greater distance through the gel than will a longer DNA molecule.
DNA/RNA are negatively charged molecules, pulled towards positively charged end of the gel.
