AGAROSE GEL ELECTROPHORESIS Gel electrophoresis is a widely used technique for the analysis of nucleic acids and proteins. Most every molecular biology research laboratory routinely uses agarose gel electrophoresis for the preparation and analysis of DNA. We will be using agarose gel electrophoresis to determine the presence and size of PCR products. Background: Electrophoresis is a method of separating substances based on the rate of movement while under the influence of an electric field

OUTLINE What is PCR and Gel Electrophoresis? • Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a technique which is used to amplify the number of copies of a specific region of DNA‚ in order to produce enough DNA to be adequately tested. This technique can be used to identify with a very high-probability‚ disease-causing viruses and/or bacteria‚ a deceased person‚ or a criminal suspect. • Gel electrophoresis is a widely used technique for separating electrically charged molecules. It is a central technique

this paper is to describe all of the methods of how PCR was developed and the results of the experiments involving extraction and amplification of DNA (Mullis et. al. 1986). 2. PCR has the ability to isolate specific DNA sequences with the use of primers. This is done by denaturing the DNA (at 95o C) so it is able to anneal to the primers that specify a fragment to be amplified (Mullis et. at. 1986). These primes anneal to a specific sequence of DNA in order to amplify this desired sequence. Once

Agarose gel electrophoresis is a technique used in the laboratory to separate macromolecules such as nucleic acids and proteins. Electrophoresis can take a mixture of macromolecules of different molecular weights‚ shapes‚ and various electrical charges to determine all the various compounds in the mixture and allowing for further purification that can aid in details of individual elements of the mixture being studied. Agarose gel electrophoresis is a very important technique used in the field of

create a DNA profile in this experiment were PCR and gel electrophoresis. The PCR is used to amplify the several DNA samples and gel electrophoresis is performed to separate the DNA fragments according to their size. [6] In the first part of the experiment‚ PCR amplification of the DNA templates was performed and the products obtained were used to perform gel electrophoresis. The process of PCR allows for the amplification of the DNA samples and the components needed to perform PCR are template DNA‚ DNA

to amplify DNA fragments using PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and then separate the products on the basis of size using agarose gel electrophoresis in an emulation of DNA fingerprinting. The task‚ which was successfully carried out was to determine whether DNA from suspects A‚ B or C matches the sample of blood found at the murder scene (X). The process of PCR acts in the same way as DNA replication but is restricted to specific DNA samples of interest. By amplifying the necessary DNA sequence‚

Gel Electrophoresis Lab SBI4U1 May 13th‚ 2013 Gel Electrophoresis Lab Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to learn how restriction enzymes cut DNA molecules at specific sequences‚ thus producing DNA fragments of various lengths. Students learn how fragments form unique patterns‚ which help to distinguish the base for DNA identification. This lab answers the question “whose DNA was left behind?”. Materials: * Transfer pipets * Agarose Gel * Dyed DNA samples *
