The biochemical approach to the study of systematics and population genetics has proven to be extremely informative for a wide range of organisms. Biochemical techniques have been particularly useful ...

In this article, we will consider how agarose gel electrophoresis works, how it can be interpreted and some of its purposes. Electrophoresis is a technique that uses electrical current to separate DNA ...

Mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful method for biomarker analysis because it enables highly sensitive and accurate measurement of target molecules in clinical samples. The application of MS to ...

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), or clamped homogeneous electrical field electrophoresis (CHEF), is a novel gel electrophoresis type for the separation of DNA macromolecules. This is ...

Investigators often work with complex nucleic acid samples in procedures such as amplification, renaturation, cDNA synthesis and normalization, sonication, digestion, nicking, labeling and ...

Protein constituents of skeletal and cardiac muscles of extant horseshoe crabs, Tachypleus tridentatus, T. gigas, Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda, and Limulus polyphemus, were examined by two-dimensional ...

Students explore how to use biotechnology equipment, how to micropipette, and how to perform gel electrophoresis, analyzing various samples from dyes to DNA. The Gel Kit contains 8 Horizon gel ...

For many years, the Laemmli system has been the standard and most popular method used to perform polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Laemmli type gels are useful for a broad range of protein ...

Different methods were used for evaluating data for DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), as obtained by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) after X irradiation of Chinese hamster ovary cells. A total ...

Current methods for the determination of RNA quantity/quality/integrity are labor-intensive, costly, and often cannot deliver adequate information or analyze high numbers of samples. New developments ...
