To develop the position of the proteins or nucleic acids bands. The most common stains for proteins are Coomassie brilliant blue and Amido black (among others), and for nucleic acids is ethidium bromide (this compound form a complex with the DNA double helix and is fluorescent under short-range UV light).
One cannot use the UV light installed in a laminar air flow hood to visualize DNA in an agarose gel. You will have to use an instrument called a UV transillumunator, which illuminates the gel from below to see the stained DNA.
Prestained proteins are proteins that are already stained permanently so they are visible while running the gel. This technique makes pre-stained protein ladder, that are useful to track the proteins running on the SDS-PAGE gels. In addition the marks or protein ladder can be transferred to blot membrane by western blotting.
By mass, they are classified as liquids. However, if one examines the intermolecular attractions in between the molecules, gels will appear solid. Therefore, gels are classified somewhere in between.
People often use bath gels because they keep their skin soft, and moisturized. Gels without dyes are particularly good for the skin.
Tris-glycine gels contain both tris and glycine buffers, while bis-tris gels use bis-tris buffer. Bis-tris gels offer better resolution and sharper bands in protein electrophoresis compared to tris-glycine gels.
Redken Color Gels developer is formulated specifically for Gels, but using any developer will still work.
yes, all shower gels will contain water unless they specifically state otherwise.
SDS gels cannot typically be reused because the separating gel portion degrades during the electrophoresis process. However, stacking gels may be reusable if they remain intact and free from contamination. It is recommended to prepare fresh gels for subsequent experiments to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Some creative stained glass art projects you can try out include making a stained glass sun catcher, creating a stained glass mosaic, designing a stained glass lampshade, or crafting a stained glass panel for a window.

They are unhealthy.
They do not sequence DNA by themselves but gels can separate DNA pieces to then be used for sequencing. Basically no
