Electrophoresis (disambiguation)

Look up electrophoresis in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

Electrophoresis is the motion of dispersed particles relative to a fluid under the influence of a spatially uniform electric field.

"Electrophoresis" can also refer to:

Interface and colloid science[]

• Dielectrophoresis, similar motion in a space non-uniform electric field
• Microelectrophoresis, a method of studying electrophoresis of various dispersed particles using optical microscopy
• Electrophoretic light scattering, a method for measuring electrophoretic mobility based on dynamic light scattering

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
  • two-dimensional electrophoresis, a specific type of gel electrophoresis commonly used to analyse proteins which involves two separation mechanisms to separate molecules
  • SDS-PAGE, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, commonly used to analyse proteins
• 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

Other[]

• Electrophoresis (journal)
