Method and apparatus for gel electrophoresis.

摘要

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for gel electrophoresis which simultaneously employs two or more electric fields in a single gel. According to this invention, which is defined as Multiple-Zone Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (MZPFGE), the electric field is set to different values in two or more spatially distinct regions of the gel. The difference in values may be related to time dependence, field amplitude or both.
