It consists out of a polymer with pores in it. Just imagine many spiderwebs that are woven one into another, so that you get a complicated 3D net. The holes that remain are used to separate molecules. The shorter a molecule, the easier it will find a way through the web. Thus it will take a shorter time for a small molecule to reach the end of the gel.

DNA fragments from a gel are transferred to a nitrocellulose paper during the procedure called Southern blotting What is the purpose of transferring the DNA from a gel to a nitocellulose paper?
to permanently attach the DNA fragments to a substrate.
What is gel electophoresis in biotechnology?
Gel electrophoresis is a widely used technique for separating electrically charged molecules. It is a central technique in molecular biology and genetics laboratories, because it lets researchers separate and purifythe nucleic acids DNA and RNA and proteins, so they can be studied individually. Gel electrophoresis is often followed by staining or blottingprocedures used to identify the separated molecules.
Why are D1S80 fragments separated by gel electophoresis?
Fragments are separated by gel electrophoresis because of their differing sizes. DNA is negatively charged, so will migrate through the gel towards the positive electrode. The smaller fragments are able to move through the gel more quickly than the larger fragments - which means they separate based on their size.
What is the purpose of electrolyte gel when performing an EKG?
what purpose of ecgelly
What is the cosmetic purpose of eye gel?
The main cosmetic purpose of eye gel is instant uplift for tired eyes, in a lovely gel which cools, soothes and lightly moisturises the delicate eye area.
One lane of an electrophoresis gel shows a 100bp ladder. What is the purpose of this ladder?
It is used as a marker for molecular weight.
What is the purpose of the gel inside of certain tubes?
For venous blood specimens, if it is test tubes used in blood collection that you are referring to, the gel is a serum separator. When the sample is centrifuged, the red cells will spin to the bottom, plasma to the top, gel separating the blood components.
What is conductive gel?
Conductive gel is used by those who are conducting an ECG reading. The gel is used underneath the pads for an accurate reading.
How are hydrogels used in shower gel?
The hydrogel is a component used in the shower gel. It gives it texture and thickens the shower gel. The scientific name used is (polyacrylate).
What is used to sort DNA into different lenghts?
Gel Electrophoresis
What is hair gel used for?

What is propan gel used for?
it used for Heartburn.
When you go in for an ultrasound, what is the purpose of the gel that they use?
The gel that is used during an ultrasound helps the technician run the machine over the body. This provides a slick surface for the machine. The gel helps to move the ultrasound around easily. It also makes the pictures that appear on the screen clearer because the ultrasound pointer is not getting stuck on the skin.
