Gel Electrophoresis Systems are essential tools in molecular biology and biochemistry for separating biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, and proteins based on their size and electrical charge. These systems apply an electric field across a gel matrix—typically agarose or polyacrylamide—causing charged molecules to migrate at different rates depending on their physical properties.

Used in academic, clinical, and industrial labs, gel electrophoresis enables precise analysis of genetic material, protein purity, and molecular weight. Whether you're performing routine DNA fragment separation or advanced protein profiling, these systems offer reliable, reproducible results.

✅ Key Features

⚙️ Functionality

Gel electrophoresis systems work by placing samples in wells within a gel matrix and applying an electric current. Negatively charged molecules (like DNA) migrate toward the positive electrode. Smaller molecules move faster through the gel pores, allowing separation by size.

• Agarose Gel: Ideal for DNA/RNA separation

• Polyacrylamide Gel: Used for protein analysis and high-resolution DNA fragments

• Buffer Systems: Maintain pH and conductivity (e.g., TAE, TBE, SDS-PAGE buffers)
