New technology in two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing and agarose gel electrophoresis in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.

Two dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), isoelectric focusing (IEF) and agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE) were used to examine cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and sera from 22 patients with confirmed multiple sclerosis, 11 patients with probable multiple sclerosis and 20 control patients with non-inflammatory neurological diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). All of the 22 patients with co...

Agarose gel electrophoresis.

MATERIALS 6x Gel-loading buffer Agarose solutions (please see Step 3) DNA samples DNA size standards Samples of DNAs of known size are typically generated by restriction enzyme digestion of a plasmid or bacteriophage DNA of known sequence. Alternatively, they are produced by ligating a monomer DNA fragment of known size into a ladder of polymeric forms. DNA staining solution For a discussion of...

Agarose gel electrophoresis.

Agarose gel electrophoresis is used to separate DNA or RNA molecules based upon their size.

Alkaline agarose gel electrophoresis.

INTRODUCTION Alkaline agarose gels are run at a pH that is sufficiently high to denature double-stranded DNA. The denatured DNA is maintained in a single-stranded state and migrates through the alkaline gel as a function of its size. Alkaline agarose gels are used chiefly to measure the size of first and second strands of cDNA (Construction of cDNA Libraries Stage 1: Synthesis of First-strand c...
