    Nice Video! A note is that since as the DNA gets larger, more phosphates group are found on the structure, and thus the electric force is proportionately stronger, what causes different fragments to separate is a gel that allows smaller DNA fragments to pass easily whilst larger fragments much more slowly (similar to size exclusion chromatography where beads are used).

    The polarity stated in the video is a little confusing since we tend to think of cations being associated with cathodes, and thus it would be (+) positive. As someone commented before: The cathode is where reduction takes place. The anode is where oxidation takes place.
    However, the polarity of the cathode, or anode, can be + or - depending on the type of device. In a galvanic cell the cathode would be (+) positive. In an electrolytic cell the cathode would be (-) negative. if your prior reference had you thinking that the cathode is (+) positive, you aren't necessarily wrong.

      +Brian Hanrahan I had to bust out my chemistry book because people were saying that she has the charges wrong, but she indeed has them correct.

    • @allen7615
      @allen7615 8 лет назад +1

      Cathodes attracts cations which are positive charge. Just think of this: what charge would you think attracts positive cations? Negative. So cathodes are negatively charged... For isoelectric focusing, cathodes are usually basic because of negatively charged OH groups which again important for attracting cations. And anodes on the other hand are just the opposite.

    Umm... I'm using the Amgen lab and my "R+" band is over 10k basepairs when I compare it to the DNA ladder. Idk what to write, so I just wrote >10k bp to avoid incorrectness cuz I can't like predict whatever is over 10k.

  • @chroniclerofthe70s
    @chroniclerofthe70s 9 лет назад +2

    She forgot to mention the use of EDTA and a UV light source to visualize the nucleic acid bands. The protein's disulfide bonds must be methylated in order to keep the proteins linearized.

  • @gaymo69
    @gaymo69 9 лет назад

    If you're doing Western Blotting, do you measure from the top or the middle of the bands (or the bottom)? For example, I have a thick band and am comparing it against molecular weight markers, but not sure where on the band to measure from.

    • @chroniclerofthe70s
      @chroniclerofthe70s 9 лет назад

      I suggest measuring the bands from the center of the band which represents the greatest concentration of nucleic acid fragments. However, you may want to consult your advisor or laboratory instructor, or email the company which sells the nucleic acid size ladder and ask them about how their ladder is to be used with the particular nucleic acids you are working with.

  • @gemechubekele2546
    @gemechubekele2546 8 лет назад

    Agarose might be used for DNA fragments of 50 bps- 500 bps, but in reality it is used for for those which are longer than 500 bps while polyacrylamide is used for those less than 500 bps. and is SDS used for DNA? It is not specifically mentioned in the video, but it seems it is implied. It is not necessary to negatively charge DNA( as it is already negatively charged) and that is what SDS does. Even if it is necessary to denature the DNA, Urea is used.

    Since you can do DNA or proteins on SDS-PAGE, does this mean that proteins are somehow smaller than DNA since agarose can only do DNA? I always thought DNA was < proteins but guess not

    Shouldn't it be the other way around for the electricity conduction at the beginning of the video? The anode is the reduced conductor which means a negative charge, while the ca+hode is the oxidized conductor that results in a positive charge.
