Affinity electrophoresis is a general name for many analytical methods used in biochemistry and biotechnology . Both qualitative and quantitative information may be obtained through affinity electrophoresis. The methods include the so called mobility shift electrophoresis, charge shift electrophoresis and affinity capillary electrophoresis . The methods are based on changes in the electrophoresis electrophoretic pattern of molecules mainly macromolecules through biospecific interaction or complex formation . The interaction or binding of a molecule, charged or uncharged, will normally change the electrophoretic properties of a molecule. Membrane proteins may be identified by a shift in mobility induced by a charged detergent . Nucleic acid s or nucleic acid fragments may be characterized by their affinity to other molecules. The methods has been used for estimation of binding constant s, as for instance in lectin affinity electrophoresis or characterization of molecules with specific features like glycan content or ligand binding. For enzymes and other ligand binding proteins, onedimentional electrophoresis similar to counter electrophoresis or to immunoelectrophoresis rocket immunoelectrophoresis , affinity electrophoresis may be used as an alternative quantification of the protein. Some of the methods are similar to affinity chromatography by use of immobilized ligands .

Image DNA Agarose Gel Electrophor.jpg 200px thumb right Digital printout of an agarose gel electrophoresis of cat insert plasmid DNA Image Electropherogram trace.jpg thumb 200px DNA electropherogram trace DNA electrophoresis is an analytical technique used to separate DNA fragments by size. DNA molecules which are to be analyzed are set upon a viscous medium, the gel , where an electric field induces the DNA to migrate toward the anode , due to the net negative charge of the sugar phosphate backbone of the DNA chain. The separation of these fragments is accomplished by exploiting the mobilities with which different sized molecules are able to pass through the gel. Longer molecules migrate more slowly because they experience more resistance within the gel. Because the size of the molecule affects its mobility, smaller fragments end up nearer to the anode than longer ones in a given period. After some time, the voltage is removed and the fragmentation gradient is analyzed. For larger separations between similar sized fragments, either the voltage or run time can be increased. Extended runs across a low voltage gel yield the most accurate resolution. The DNA to be separated can be prepared in several ways before separation by electrophoresis. In the case of large DNA molecules, the DNA ... linear DNA fragments of known length. The types of gel most commonly used for DNA electrophoresis are agarose gel electrophoresis agarose for relatively long DNA molecules and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis ... electrophoresis has become important for applications such as high throughput DNA sequencing.

Moving boundary electrophoresis or free boundary electrophoresis is electrophoresis in a free solution. It was developed by Arne Tiselius in 1937. Tiselius was awarded the 1948 Nobel Prize in chemistry for his work on the separation of colloids through electrophoresis, the motion of charged particles through a stationary liquid under the influence of an electric field. The apparatus includes a U shaped cell filled with buffer solution and electrodes immersed at its ends. The sample applied could be any mixture of charged components like a protein mixture. On applying voltage, the compounds will migrate to the anode or cathode depending on their charges. The change in the refractive index at the boundary of the separated compounds is detected using Schlieren optics at both ends of the solution in the cell. ref Reiner, Westermeier , Electrophoresis in Practice , 3rd Edition. ref References reflist External links http www.webcitation.org query?url http www.geocities.com bioelectrochemistry tiselius.htm&date 2009 10 25 19 13 00 Arne Wilhelm Kaurin Tiselius &mdash Information on Tiselius compiled from various sources.

Difference gel electrophoresis DIGE is a form of gel electrophoresis where up to three different protein samples can be labeled with fluorescent dye s for example Cy3, Cy5, Cy2 prior to two dimensional electrophoresis. After the gel electrophoresis, the gel is scanned with the excitation wavelength of each dye one after the other. This technique is used to see changes in protein abundance for example, between a sample of a healthy person and a sample of a person with disease . It overcomes limitations in traditional 2D electrophoresis that are due to inter gel variation. This can be considerable even with identical samples. Since the proteins from the different sample types e.g. healthy diseased, virulent non virulent are run on the same gel they can be directly compared. To do this with traditional 2D electrophoresis requires large numbers of time consuming repeats. In experiments comprising several gels, a common technique is to include an internal standard in each gel. The internal standard is prepared by mixing together several or all of the samples in the experiment. This allows the measurement of the abundance of a protein in each sample relative to the internal standard. Since the amounts of each protein in the internal standard is known to be the same in every gel, this method reduces inter gel variation. ref Alban, A., David, S.

unreferenced date July 2008 Native Gel Electrophoresis is a technique used mainly in protein electrophoresis where the proteins are not denatured and therefore separated based on their charge to mass ratio. The two main types of native gels used in protein electrophoresis are polyacrylamide gel polyacrylamide gels and agarose gel electrophoresis agarose gels . Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis PAGE is used for separating proteins ranging in size from 5 to 2,000 kiloDalton due to the uniform pore size provided by the polyacrylamide gel. Pore size is controlled by controlling the concentrations of acrylamide and bis acrylamide powder used in creating a gel. Care must be used when creating this type of gel, as acrylamide is a potent neurotoxin in its liquid and powdered form. The other type of gel used is agarose gel. Agarose gels can also be used to separate native protein. They do not have a uniform pore size, but are optimal for electrophoresis of proteins that are larger than 200 kDalton. Unlike SDS PAGE type electrophoreses, Native gel electrophoresis does not use a charged Denaturation biochemistry denaturing agent. The molecules being separated usually proteins therefore differ in molecular mass and intrinsic charge and experience different electrophoretic forces dependent on the ratio of the two. Since the proteins remain in the native state they may be visualised not only by general protein staining reagents but also by specific enzyme linked staining.

Wikify date June 2010 Pulsed field gel electrophoresis is a technique used for the separation of large DNA deoxyribonucleic acid DNA molecule s by applying an electric field that periodically changes direction to a gel matrix. Image Microbiologist 01.jpg right thumb 200px A microbiologist running a pulsed field gel electrophoresis test used in bacterial typing. Historical background Standard DNA electrophoresis gel electrophoresis techniques for separation of DNA molecules provided huge advantages for molecular biology research. However, many limitations existed with the standard protocol in that it was unable to separate very large molecules of DNA effectively. DNA molecules larger than 15 20kb migrating through a gel will essentially move together in a size independent manner. At Columbia University in 1984, Schwartz and Charles Cantor Cantor developed a variation on the standard protocol by introducing an alternating voltage gradient to better the resolution of larger molecules. ref Schwartz DC, Cantor CR. Separation of yeast chromosome sized DNAs by pulsed field gradient gel electrophoresis. Cell. 1984 May 37 1 67 75. ref This technique became known as Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis PFGE . The development of PFGE expanded the range of resolution for DNA fragments by as much as 2 orders of magnitude. Procedure The procedure for this technique is relatively similar to performing a standard gel electrophoresis except that instead of constantly running the voltage in one direction, the voltage is periodically switched among three directions one that runs through the central axis of the gel and two that run at an angle of 120 degrees either side. The pulse times are equal ... at 0 hours to 60 seconds at 18 hours. This procedure takes longer than normal gel electrophoresis ...

Serum protein electrophoresis SPEP is a laboratory test that examines specific proteins in the blood called globulins . Blood must first be collected, usually into an airtight vial or syringe . Electrophoresis is a laboratory technique where the blood serum the fluid portion of the blood after the blood has clotted is placed on special paper treated with agarose gel and exposed to an electric current to separate the serum protein components into five classifications by size and electrical charge, those being serum albumin , alpha 1 globulin s, Alpha2 globulin alpha 2 globulin s, beta globulin s, and gamma globulin s. Albumin A fall of 30 is necessary before the decrease shows on electrophoresis. Usually a single band is seen. Heterozygous individuals may produce bisalbuminaemia two equally staining bands, the product of two genes. Some variants give rise to a wide band or two bands of unequal intensity but none of these variants is associated with disease. Increased mobility results from the binding of bilirubin , nonesterified fatty acids , penicillin and acetylsalicylic acid , and occasionally from tryptic digestion in acute pancreatitis .
