Principles and Practice of Agarose Gel Electrophoresis

Demonstrate how electrophoresis separates molecules on the basis of size and charge. A safe, colorful, fast and simple way to teach a technique that will engage your students. • Explore how gel electrophoresis separates molecules • Learn about macromolecules, electromotive force, and molecule sorting • Load and run samples and watch as they separate, migrate at different rates, and even travel in opposite directions • A hands-on and STEM-focused introduction to this fundamental biotechnology
