description

We built a modified version of voltage gradient gel electrophoresis system to correct distortions in nucleic acids electrophoretic migration patterns occurring at the edges of the gel when the original voltage gradient apparatus is used. The new device allows correct fractionation of nucleic acids also when electrophoresis is performed at high voltages.
