What is used to sort DNA into different lenghts?
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
Can a gel electrophoresis be performed both horizonnally and vertically?
yes for example 2D gel electrophoresis
A technique that can be used to compare the DNA of two or more plants is?
Gel electrophoresis
What is a common name for gel electrophoresis?
gel
Where can one learn more on gel electrophoresis?
To learn more about gel electrophoresis, one can Google it. There is also a whole Wikipedia article dedicated to gel electrophoresis, and it happens to be quite informative.
What has the author A J Houtsmuller written?
A. J. Houtsmuller has written: 'Agarose-gel-electrophoresis of lipoproteins' -- subject(s): Blood protein electrophoresis, Electrophoresis, Gel electrophoresis, Lipoproteins
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
Can gel electrophoresis be used to determine the purity of an enzyme?
Yes it can be done if you use Poly-Acrylamide Gel Electrophoresis.
Difference between vertical and horizontal gel electrophoresis?
Horizantal gel electrophoresis is generally used for RNA/DNA based studies, while vertical gel electrophoresis is used for protein based studies.
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 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.
