If you meant "protein gel electrophoresis" (considering the image on this page) is a very powerful technique and widely used to separate proteins according to their mass, molecular weight and charge. The support most used for this technique is the polyacrylamide.
Bis-Tris gel and Tris-Glycine gel differ in their composition and performance in protein electrophoresis. Bis-Tris gel contains bis-tris propane buffer, which helps maintain a stable pH, while Tris-Glycine gel uses a tris-glycine buffer system. Bis-Tris gel is known for providing sharper protein bands and better resolution, making it ideal for separating proteins of similar sizes. Tris-Glycine gel, on the other hand, is more commonly used for routine protein electrophoresis due to its simplicity and lower cost.
To analyze an SDS-PAGE gel effectively, first, load protein samples onto the gel and run electrophoresis. After staining the gel, visually inspect for protein bands. Measure the molecular weight of bands using a standard ladder. Compare band intensities between samples. Consider factors like protein size, charge, and interactions to interpret results accurately.
Gel electrophoresis is not typically used for determining the function of proteins or for studying protein-protein interactions. It is primarily used to separate and analyze DNA, RNA, or proteins based on their size and charge.
To read an SDS-PAGE gel effectively, start by identifying the protein bands based on their molecular weight. Use a protein ladder as a reference. Then, analyze the intensity and size of the bands to compare protein samples. Pay attention to any differences or abnormalities that may indicate protein degradation or modification.
During an incidence of inflammation, the body will respond with an acute-phase reaction. The acute -phase proteins whose plasma concentrates increase , positive proteins or decrease, negative proteins in response.
Why discontinuous gel system is more favorable in the analysis of protein
Separating gel allows the separation of protein molecules according to their molecular weight by sieving effect of pores in the gel(percentage). The pH of separating or resolving gel is 8.8, whereas stacking gel (upper gel that squeezes protein as a thin layer) made of pH6.8.

Yes it does because it contains protein. There are some gel that is soft such as softee and other brands that will not make your hair hard but still contain protein.

The main factors that can cause faster protein migration in electrophoresis are higher voltage, smaller pore size of the gel matrix, and lower molecular weight of the protein. These factors can increase the speed at which proteins move through the gel during electrophoresis.
Native Gel or the Native PAGE is the electrophoretic system in which the the proteins are run in their native conformation, that is that they are not denatured. This used when the function of the protein is important, especially enzymes, as the function of a protein is related to its native structure.
Gel electrophoresis is not typically used for determining the function of proteins or for studying protein-protein interactions. It is primarily used to separate and analyze DNA, RNA, or proteins based on their size and charge.
Horizantal gel electrophoresis is generally used for RNA/DNA based studies, while vertical gel electrophoresis is used for protein based studies.

Then, analyze the intensity and size of the bands to compare protein samples. Pay attention to any differences or abnormalities that may indicate protein degradation or modification.
A"gel" generally refers to an agarose gel which is used to visualise DNA, determine the size of DNA and even a tell you a bit about its's structure (supoercoiled DNA vs linear DNA). However some gels can also be used to look at protein (often as a "western blot" gel) or RNA. The size of DNA, RNA or protein can be determined by how fast it moves across the gel when you pass an electrical current through it.
