Influence of Sieving Polymer Concentration and Applied Voltage on Separation Accuracy of the Capillary Gel Electrophoresis for Small DNA Fragments

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, measurement conditions of Capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE) were optimized in order to increase the separation accuracy for small DNA fragments. We adopted a 20-bp DNA Ladder including 13 small double-stranded fragments (20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 300, 400, and 500-bp). The applied voltage and sieving polymer concentration were assessed because these two factors significantly affect the separation accuracy of DNA fragments. As a result, we succeeded in optimizing CGE separation conditions for small DNA fragments with a sufficient degree of accuracy.
