Electrophoresis System Dynamics The apparatus in gel electrophoresis constitutes an electrical/thermodynamic system. The apparatus receives energy from the power source and releases energy as heat. The figure below shows a stylized representation of a typical…

The Mechanical and Electrical Dynamics of Gel Electrophoresis – Intro and Sample Mobility

By National Diagnostics | August 10, 2011 | Comments Off on The Mechanical and Electrical Dynamics of Gel Electrophoresis – Intro and Sample Mobility

The term “electrophoresis” refers simply to the movement of particles by an electric force. The first electrophoresis experiments were carried out on molecules in a conductive buffer solution, where the only force acting on the…

Biological Macromolecules – Proteins

By National Diagnostics | August 10, 2011 | Comments Off on Biological Macromolecules – Proteins

Proteins Like nucleic acids, proteins are polymers. While with nucleic acids the repeating unit is the nucleotide, with proteins, the analogous repeating unit is the amino acid. Amino acids consist of a central carbon that…

Biological Macromolecules: Nucleic Acids

By National Diagnostics | August 8, 2011 | Comments Off on Biological Macromolecules: Nucleic Acids

Nucleic Acids Like many biological molecules nucleic acids are polymers, long molecules formed of repeating units. With nucleic acids, the repeating unit is the nucleotide. A nucleotide consists of a five carbon sugar, a nitrogen…
