Researchers use it to isolate specific genes for cloning or to study mutations. Conclusion
The standard method for separating DNA fragments, often used after a PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) to verify results. Electrophoresis
It is used to detect abnormal proteins in blood or urine, which can indicate conditions like multiple myeloma or hemoglobin disorders (e.g., sickle cell anemia). Researchers use it to isolate specific genes for
Molecules are loaded into a porous gel, typically made of agarose (for large DNA fragments) or polyacrylamide (for smaller DNA or proteins). This gel acts as a molecular sieve. allowing for high-speed separation and automation
Uses narrow tubes instead of gels, allowing for high-speed separation and automation, commonly used in modern DNA sequencing. Real-World Applications
