What is used to sort DNA into different lenghts?
Gel Electrophoresis
A technique that can be used to compare the DNA of two or more plants is?
Gel electrophoresis
what is the gel in Gel Electrophoresis?
For larger molecules like proteins we use polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). For smaller pieces like DNA we use agarose gel electrophoresis
Is electrophoresis part of biotechnology?
Electrophoresis is used to separate molecules based on size and charge. Since biotechnology depends on knowing what you are working with, electrophoresis of proteins, DNA and RNA is a tool used by biotechnologists.
Can gel electrophoresis be used to determine the purity of an enzyme?
Yes it can be done if you use Poly-Acrylamide Gel Electrophoresis.
What is the function of the gel electrophoresis?
Gel electrophoresis is an analytical method used to separate DNA, RNA or proteins based on size
What is the purpose of the comb in gel electrophoresis?
The comb is placed in slots on the side of the casting tray. It is put in the slots BEFORE the hot, melted gel is poured. After the gel solidifies, the comb is taken out. The "teeth" of the comb leave small holes in the gel that we call "wells."
What is the function of buffer in the gel electrophoresis?
TBE buffer in gel electrophoresis is used to maintain pH of te solution and prevents the denaturation of smale fragments of DNA.
What is used to sort DNA into different lenghts?
Gel Electrophoresis
What has the author A J Houtsmuller written?

When was Electrophoresis - journal - created?
Electrophoresis - journal - was created in 1980.
What has the author B J Haywood written?
B. J. Haywood has written: 'Electrophoresis - technical applications' -- subject(s): Abstracts, Bibliography, Electrophoresis 'Electrophoresis-technical application' -- subject(s): Bibliography, Electrophoresis
What is a technique for sorting DNA fragments by length?
it is called " electrophoresis"
Do you have to decomb a chicken?
It only depends on the type of chicken you have and in what area you live in. If you live in states with very cold winters and the chickens have large combs,then it should be decombed to stop frost bite. NO You do not have to remove a chickens comb and you should not. Removing the comb off a chicken is absolutely not necessary, anywhere. The comb has two functions. The primary function of the comb is to cool the chicken down in the summer. It is like a small radiator and blood flows close to the surface of the comb, air passing over the comb will remove some of the radiated heat and cool the blood as it passes through. Chickens do not sweat, taking off the comb would be like covering yourself in plastic wrap and sitting in the hot sun. The other function for the comb is to attract a mate. A healthy comb on either gender indicates potentially good genetic quality recognized by potential mates.
What is the function of agarose gel electrophoresis?
Agarose gel electrophoresis is for determining the size of a piece of RNA or DNA. It can be used to determine the culprit of a crime, relatives, even the cause of some diseases, like Mad Cow.
What is native gel 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.
What are some potential designs for a gel electrophoresis chamber?
a box and a chamber and a lid and a comb A gel electrophoresis can be made two different ways---horizontal or vertical. I'm doing a project with it right now, and honestly, I prefer the horizontal. I don't know how the vertical works, but the horizontal is pretty much a box inside a box with the lid and comb. The bigger box, or your chamber, should be large enough to fit all the wiring on each ends of it, and the smaller box, or the box, in the middle. Your box should have two removable walls on the ends in which the wells are facing, and slits on one end for the comb to go into. You should put the comb in and fill the box up with the gel, and when it dries, you take the comb out and take off both walls. The charge can then run through the walls and to the other side of the chamber.
