Electrophoresis involves the migration of charged particle or molecules under the influence of an applied electric field.
Electrophoresis is basically of two types: 1. Free boundary or moving boundary electrophoresis. 2. Zone electrophoresis.
Filter paper is very popular as a stabilizing media and most commonly used for the study of normal and normal plasma proteins. For electrophoresis Chromatography paper is most suitable and it needs no preparation other than to be cut to size.
– It is simple, rapid and sensitive analytical technique for the separation of charged particle.
