From our sample of the gel electrophoresis‚ both Madi and me are homozygous positive (+/+) for the Alu gene. This can be determined by looking at the ladder and comparing our sample to it‚ to find out if we are homozygous or heterozygous. Discussion For this lab‚ DNA from our cheek cells were separated through PCR‚ and singled out through gel electrophoresis

Gel Electrophoresis is used to separate the haemoglobin component of blood. Because each type of haemoglobin (HbA‚ HbS‚ Hbc and more) have different electrical charges‚ they will separate after undergoing gel electrophoresis. Firstly‚ a blood sample from the patient is taken and is applied to a cellulose acetate membrane strip that has been soaked in a buffer solution along with saponin. The red blood cells are lysed by the saponin while being soaked‚ therefore they release their haemoglobin. A

Gel electrophoresis is a routine laboratory procedure in biochemical studies that takes advantage of a protein’s amphoteric nature to determine its molecular weight and charge by running the sample through a gel matrix under the influence of an electrically charged field. A popular example of gel electrophoresis is Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis or SDS- PAGE which has been used in this experiment to supposedly determine albumin and casein’s molecular weights respectively.

Title: Principles and Practice of Agarose Gel Electrophorsis Objectives: To detect the size ‚ shape and charge of the each dye solution. Methods: Casting the Agarose Gel In this experiment .8% solution was used. By using a 250ml flask the buffer solution was prepared. Using the equation to make enough solution for the intire lab class the equation had to be multiplyed by five. The contents of this equation were added to the 250ml flask and swirled to evenly distrubute it contents

CHARACTERIZATION BY ELECTROPHORESIS Abstract The molecular weights of protein extracts were assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Two sets of four protein samples‚ standard bovine serum albumin (BSA)‚ invertase‚ egg albumin‚ and casein‚ were prepared; one set containing β-mercaptoethanol (BME) while the other did not. These were then analyzed through SDS-PAGE with 12.5% resolving gel‚ prepared using 2 M Tris-HCl at pH 8.8 and stacking gel‚ prepared using

Making an Agarose Gel AIM: To be able to make and agarose gel and perform gel electrophoresis in six different dyes. Also‚ to extract DNA from wheat germ. INTRODUCTION: Agarose gel is a substance that is used in science for gel electrophoresis and size exclusion chromatography. These processes use agarose gel to separate and analyze proteins and DNA. The medium is composed of a purified agarose powder that has been boiled in a buffer solution and then cooled into a gel. Agarose gel is most commonly

1 Measuring the Success of Pisum sativum leaf cell fractionation: SDS-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis and Western Blot Analysis Introduction In order to evaluate the success of cellular fractionation‚ there are various methods that can be implemented that target specific proteins and/or receptors specific to particular organelles. SDS-PAGE (sodium dedocyl sulfate- polyachrylamide gel electrophoresis) is a technique used to separate proteins based on their mass. As different proteins vary

What is gel electrophoresis? Gel electrophoresis is a technique that separates pieces of DNA (or other biological molecules) by size. Pieces of DNA in a test tube all look the same. DNA Gel Electrophoresis Gel electrophoresis separates pieces of DNA by size so that researchers can further analyze them BURST Training Session November 29‚ 2005 Once the DNA samples are loaded onto the gel‚ an electric current is applied to the gel. DNA is negatively charged due to all the phosphate groups in the

Serum Protein Electrophoresis (SPEP) Introduction: The serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP) test measures specific proteins in the blood to help identify some diseases. And its uses an electrical field to separate the proteins in the blood serum into groups of similar size‚ shape‚ and charge. And here we’ll use gel electrophoresis which indicate that blood serum is placed on special paper treated with agarose gel and exposed to an electric
