Studies on Agar-gel Electrophoresis

Behavior of the Serum proteins in starch-agar-gel electrophoresis

A method for the electrophoresis of colicines in agar gel.

The design, construction, and use of an apparatus for the electrophoresis of colicines in agar gel is described, as are some preliminary experiments with it. The possibilities of this method in typing strains of colicinogenic organisms and for the study of colicines are also discussed. In 1953, Ludford and Lederer, using a simple apparatus, demonstrated that substances known as colicines consis...

Detection of β-thalassemia (homozygous) by hemoglobin electrophoresis on agar gel and citrate agar medium: a case report

A seven month old male baby was admitted to NICU of BPKIHS, Dharan with dyspnoea and distress. He was investigated for hemolytic anemia and suspected of β Thalassemia (Homozygous) based on the low level of Hb and high HbF%. To investigate further, Hb electrophoresis was carried out using agar gel and citrate agar gel at pH 8.6 and 6.0 respectively along with control. Electrophoretogram showed s...

Gel Electrophoresis

Electrophoresis is the migration of charged particles or molecules in an electric field. This occurs when the substances are in aqueous solution. The speed of migration is dependent on the applied electric field strength and the charges of the molecules. Thus, differently charged molecules will form individual zones while they migrate. In order to keep diffusion of the zones to a minimum, elect...
