Good evening, I was wondering what is the size of Acrylamide/Bis-Acrylamide in a PAGE 4%/8%. I'm asking because after the run I found that some of the sample stayed in the well
In acrylamide gel electrophoresis, the upper gel is only a means for the movement of proteins and the separation of waste materials with it.
The lower gel is selected based on the molecular weight of the desired protein, and the smaller the protein, the higher the gel percentage, and vice versa. As the gel percentage increases, the pores and holes in the gel will also become smaller.
