ALT_DEFINITION |
The motion of charged particles in a colloid under the influence of an electric field; particles with a positive charge go to the cathode and negative to the anode. A laboratory technique that uses an electric current to separate substances, such as proteins or nucleic acids. The size and electrical charge (either positive or negative) of a substance determines how far it moves with the current. Electrophoresis may be used to help diagnosis certain diseases. There are many different types of electrophoresis. |
