Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of electrophoresis combs, and more specifically, relates to an anti-tilting electrophoresis comb. Background Art

[0002] An electrophoresis comb is a laboratory technical tool used for separating and purifying DNA, RNA, or proteins. It utilizes the action of an electric field on charged particles to separate them. In an electrophoresis comb, there is usually a flat plate with grooves. A buffer solution is injected into the grooves, and then an electric field is applied at both ends. Samples are loaded into the grooves, and due to the influence of the electric field, charged molecules will separate in the grooves according to their different sizes and charge migration rates. Electrophoresis combs are widely used in molecular biology and biochemistry research, such as in fields like DNA fingerprint analysis, protein separation and purification, etc. By controlling the migration rate of charged particles, the separation and purification of target molecules can be achieved. Electrophoresis combs can also be used to analyze the components and characteristics of samples. For example, by observing the positions and intensities of DNA bands or protein bands, the composition and concentration of samples can be understood.
