gel electrophoresis
Definition(s)
- Gel electrophoresis, sometimes called cataphoresis, is a group of techniques used by scientists and medical researchers who separate molecules based on the physical characteristics of these molecules on the basis of their shapes, size, or isoelectyric point. Although there is no prescribed use for gel electrophoresis, the techniques are usually undertaken to partially purify molecules before they are used for a number of procedures including DNA sequencing, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) cloning, mass spectrometry, or immunoblotting.
