When painting cabinets, it is important to stain the gel because it allows for the cabinet to protect itself against liquid oil bases. It provides an abrade to the surface.

How do you remove liquid fire stains from your sink?

You will need to paint the stain with a pickling gel. It is very rough, but it will get the stain off.


What makes DNA visible?

You can an electrophoresis gel and then stain the gel using a solution such as coomassie blue to make the bands visible. Alternatively, you can stain a cell containing DNA by using acridine orange. It is necessary to observe these under an electron light microscope.

Why gel red can stain DNA fragments?

The DNA is a red color band under UV light on EtBr staining because EtBr intercalate and binds double stranded DNA unspecifically, when it absorbs UV light, it emits red color.


How do I remove hair gel / body oil from a wooden headboard?

You will need to sand down the oil or hair gel from the headboard. After you have sanded that down, you will need to restrain that spot with a stain matching your wood tone.

Yes you can.


Process that restriction fragments of DNA are separated from each other by the use of electricity?

The process is referred to as gel electrophoresis. This is an analytical process where DNA fragments can be separated based on size within a gel under the influence of an electric field


Function of bromophenolblue in agarose gel electrophoresis?

Bromophenol blue or commasive blue functions as a sample staining dye or DNA staining dye it is mixed with sample before loading the sample in wells. The migration of bromophenol blue is same as of DNA i.e. it carries negative charge and move in same direction of DNA with the speed equals to 200-400bp of DNA.It also prevent backflow of sample in vertical gel electrophoresis as the sample is light from the loading buffer which tends to come back from the well so bromophenol blue prevent the back flow.IUPAC NAME:2,6-dibromo-4-[3-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,1-dioxo-3-benzooxathiolyl]phenol.Bromphenol blue does not stain DNA. It is simply a dye that 1) helps you visualise your sample as you load it and 2) migrates (unrelated to the DNA) at a speed that is indeed equivalent to about 200-400bp of DNA, depending on the percentage of gel, giving an indication of how far your samples have run. It also does not prevent "backflow". Usually the buffer which you add to your DNA sample before loading on a gel (ie loading buffer) contains a dye such as bromophenol blue (there are others) and will also contain a dense substance, usually glycerol or ficoll. It is the glycerol or ficoll which due to its density will make the sample more dense than the buffer which the gel is run in, and will prevent it floating out of the well.In order to visualise (stain) the DNA you need an agent such as ethidium bromide or sybr green that intercalates with the DNA (slides between the basepairs) and fluoresces under UV light.Coommassie (not commasive) blue is a dye that will stain proteins (not DNA) but is used after the gel has been run to stain the gel. If you use it with an agarose gel, I'm guessing - having never tried it) you would just simply make a big blue mess and not see anything.

What holds the DNA sample during electrophoresis?

DNA samples are within the gel matrix during electrophoresis. DNA moves at differtent rates through the pores of the gel depending on how long the fragments are. DNA is held by the gel itself.


What is the blue band at the bottom of the gel when PAGE gel is performed and where are the DNA fragments?

The blue band at the bottom of the gel is Bromophenol blue and DNA fragments will be in the gel according to their molecular weight.


Why do you resolve your PCR products by electrophoresis gel?

PCR products produce million copies of your gene of interest. After PCR, we usually resolve them on the agarose gel to visualize the amplified DNA using EtBr stain under UV. The main purpose is, it make sure your gene is really amplified and the length it run is corresponding to the right size of your gene of interest and purify it from other template DNA and other unspecifically amplified DNA products by extracting from the gel.
