Electrophoresis (disambiguation) explained
Electrophoresis is the motion of charged dispersed particles or dissolved charged molecules relative to a fluid under the influence of a spatially uniform electric field.
"Electrophoresis" can also refer to:
Interface and colloid science
Molecular biology and biochemistry
- Affinity electrophoresis, used to separate and characterize biomolecules on basis of their molecular characteristics through binding to another biomolecule
- Capillary electrophoresis, commonly used to separate biomolecules by their charge and frictional forces
- Gel electrophoresis, a technique used by scientists to separate molecules based on physical characteristics such as size, shape, or isoelectric point
- electrophoresis of nucleic acids, a specific type of gel electrophoresis used to analyse DNA and RNA
- electrophoresis of proteins, a specific type of gel electrophoresis used to analyse proteins
- QPNC-PAGE, quantitative preparative native continuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, commonly used to analyse metal cofactor-containing proteins
- SDS-PAGE, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, commonly used to analyse proteins
- two-dimensional electrophoresis, a specific type of gel electrophoresis commonly used to analyse proteins which involves two separation mechanisms to separate molecules
- Immunoelectrophoresis, used to separate and characterize biomolecules on basis their molecular characteristics as well as binding of antibodies
Medicine
- Iontophoresis, a way of rapidly administering drugs through the skin
Media support
- Electrophoretic display, a device that displays media contents using charged pigment particles in an applied electric field
