- Why is it important for the gel to solidify?
- What determines the rigidity of the gel?
- What is the relevance of the loading dye?
- Is bromophenol blue used to stain DNA?
Homework Answers
Answer 1. Gel electrophoresis is the technique to separate DNA fragments of different size through gel. DNA is negatively charged so they move towards positively charged electrodes through gel. Large particle slow down because of solidity of gel and move slow while small fragment move fast. If gel is not solid measuring the speed is not possible because all the fragment will move at equal speed toward electrode.
Answer 2. Rigidity of gel is determined by viscosity stress.
Answer 3. Because DNA is colorless so adding dyes help to determine the rate of movement.
Answer 4. Yes bromophenol blue used to stain DNA because it has a slight negative charge and will migrate in same direction as DNA, allowing the user to monitor the progress of fragment of DNA.

3. Application of DNA gel electrophoresis. DNA gel electrophoresis is commonly used in determining familial relationships among individuals, for ex; to establish paternity of a child. This technique is called DNA fingerprinting. In this technique the DNA of parents and children is roughly chopped up into pieces and resolved on an agarose gel. The DNA ill resolve according to their sizes and create a pattern or a "fingerprint". The fingerprint of the child is...
