Hoʻohana ʻia ka ʻōnaehana DYCP-31DN no ka ʻike, hoʻokaʻawale, hoʻomākaukau ʻana i ka DNA, a me ke ana ʻana i ke kaumaha mole. Hana ʻia ia me ka polycarbonate kiʻekiʻe i nani a paʻa. He maʻalahi ke nānā aku i ka gel ma o ka pahu aniani. Hāʻawi mākou i nā nui like ʻole o nā pulu e kūpono i kāu mau koi hoʻokolohua like ʻole.
Hiki i ka Gel electrophoresis ke hoʻokaʻawale i nā waikawa nucleic (DNA a i ʻole RNA) a me nā protein e pili ana i ko lākou nui. Hoʻohana ʻia ka electrophoresis e nā labs e aʻo ana i nā kano, nā lāʻau lapaʻau, forensics, DNA profiling a i ʻole nā noi ʻepekema ola ʻē aʻe. Hoʻohana ʻia ka ʻenehana i ka ʻoihana e like me ka mining a i ʻole ka ʻepekema meaʻai.
Hoʻohana ʻo Gel electrophoresis i kahi matrix gel porous kahi e neʻe ai nā protein a i ʻole nucleic acid. Loaʻa i nā ʻakika nucleic a me nā protein kahi uku uila-negative, kahi waiwai i hoʻohana ʻia e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ka neʻe ʻana o ka mole i makemake ʻia ma o ka waena.
Hōʻike ka pahu gel i kahi cathode ma kekahi ʻaoʻao a me kahi anode ma kekahi. Hoʻopiha ʻia ka pahu me kahi pale ionic, kahi e hana ai i kahi māla uila ke kau ʻia kahi uku. No ka loaʻa ʻana o ka hoʻopiʻi maikaʻi ʻole o nā protein a me nā ʻakika nucleic, e neʻe nā molekala i ka electrode maikaʻi. ʻO ka wikiwiki o kēia neʻe ʻana e hilinaʻi ʻia i ka maʻalahi o ka neʻe ʻana o nā mole ma nā pores o ka gel. ʻO ka liʻiliʻi o ka mole, ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka "kūpono" ma o nā pores, a no laila, ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki o ka neʻe ʻana. Ke hoʻopau ʻia, loaʻa kēia kaʻina hana i nā pūnaʻi kūʻokoʻa o nā protein a i ʻole nā ʻakika nucleic i hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ma muli o ko lākou kaumaha molekala. E hoʻomaka ana me nā mea heterogenous, ʻo kēia ʻenehana kahi ala ikaika e ʻike a hoʻokaʻawale i nā molekala ʻokoʻa.
