Electrophoresis Electrophoresis Agarose gel electrophoresis is a method used in molecular biology to separate DNA strands by size, and to determine the size of the separated strands by comparison to strands of known length. Similarly, in proteomics research, this method is also used to separate and quantify proteins based on their charge and size. ...more on Wikipedia about "Agarose gel electrophoresis"
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) can be used to separate ionic species by their charge and frictional forces. In traditional electrophoresis, electrically charged analytes move in a conductive liquid medium under the influence of an electric field. Introduced in the 1960’s, the technique of capillary electrophoresis (CE) was designed to separate species based on their size to charge ratio in the interior of a small capillary filled with an electrolyte. ...more on Wikipedia about "Capillary electrophoresis"
Difference gel electrophoresis is a form of gel electrophoresis where up to three different protein samples can be labeled with fluorescent dyes (for example Cy3, Cy5, Cy2) prior to two-dimensional electrophoresis. After the gel electrophoresis, the gel is scanned with the excitation wavelength of each dye one after the other. This technique is used to see changes in protein abundancy (for example, between a sample of a healthy person and a sample of a diseased person). ...more on Wikipedia about "Difference gel electrophoresis"
DNA electrophoresis is an analytical technique used to separate DNA fragments by size. An electric field forces the fragments to migrate through a gel. DNA molecules normally migrate from negative to positive potential due to the net negative charge of the phosphate backbone of the DNA chain. At the scale of the length of DNA molecules, the gel looks much like a random, intricate network. Longer molecules migrate more slowly because they are more easily 'trapped' in the network. ...more on Wikipedia about "DNA electrophoresis"
Electrophoresis is the movement of an electrically charged substance under the influence of an electric field. This movement is due to the Lorentz force, which may be related to fundamental electrical properties of the body under study and the ambient electrical conditions by the equation given below. F is the Lorentz force, q is the charge carried by the body, E is the electric field [1]: ...more on Wikipedia about "Electrophoresis"
Electrophoresis is a method of moving charged particles through a medium by using an electric field induced by electrodes. It is also used to separate molecules with different physical characteristics using electrical charges. ...more on Wikipedia about "Electrophoresis (disambiguation)"
Gel electrophoresis is a group of techniques used by scientists to separate molecules based on physical characteristics such as size, shape, or isoelectric point. Gel electrophoresis is usually performed for analytical purposes, but may be used as a preparative technique to partially purify molecules prior to use of other methods such as mass spectrometry, PCR, cloning, DNA sequencing, or immuno-blotting for further characterization. ...more on Wikipedia about "Gel electrophoresis"
Iontocaine, known by the brand name Numby, is local anesthetic administered via iontophoresis through the skin. It can numb up to 10mm of skin as quick as 10 minutes. It is a 2% lidocaine, 0.01 mg/ml epinephrine solution. It is currently only manufactured by IOMED, Inc. ...more on Wikipedia about "Iontocaine"
Iontophoresis is the process of delivering drugs or other charged molecules through the skin using an electrical charge. Commonly used with anti-inflammatory medications. Common diagnoses treated with Iontophoresis include plantar fasciitis, bursitis and hyperhidrosis. It is also used for people, especially children, who are needle phobic, to quickly numb their skin before insertion of a needle. ...more on Wikipedia about "Iontophoresis"
In chemistry and medicine, protein electrophoresis is a method of analysing a mixture of proteins by means of gel electrophoresis, mainly in blood serum ( blood plasma is not suitable). ...more on Wikipedia about "Protein electrophoresis"
Serum protein electrophoresis is a laboratory test that examines specific proteins in the blood called globulins. Blood must first be collected, usually into an airtight vial or syringe. Electrophoresis is a laboratory technique where the blood serum (the fluid portion of the blood) is placed on special paper treated with agarose gel and exposed to an electric current to separate the serum protein components into five classifications by size and electrical charge, those being albumin, alpha-1-globulins, alpha-2-globulins, beta globulins, and gamma globulins. ...more on Wikipedia about "Serum protein electrophoresis"
Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) is a form of electrophoresis that studies the behavior of substances under different temperatures. ...more on Wikipedia about "Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis"
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, commonly abbreviated as 2-DE or 2-D electrophoresis, is a form of gel electrophoresis commonly used to analyze proteins. In 1-D electrophoresis, proteins (or other analytes) are separated in one dimension, so that all the analytes will lie along a line but be separated from each other by some property. 2-D electrophoresis begins with 1-D electrophoresis but then separates the analytes by a second property in a direction 90 degrees from the first. The result is that the analytes are spread out across a 2-D surface rather than along a line. Because it is less likely that two analytes will be the same in both properties than that they will be the same in just one property, analytes are more effectively separated in 2-D electrophoresis than in 1-D electrophoresis. ...more on Wikipedia about "Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis"
