BIOCHEMICAL TECHNIQUES:: PART 5

GEL PENETRATION

INTRODUCTION


-         This method uses gel beads that are made of inert material and have pores in them.

-         This method is used when molecules are to be separated based on their size.


-         The particles with larger size run down fast as they cannot get into pores of the beads, since smaller particles get into the pores of the beads they take longer time to finish the run.
