What is the purpose of the electrophoresis apparatus?

The purpose of the electrophoresis apparatus is to separate molecules, such as DNA, RNA, or proteins, based on their size, charge, or shape. It uses an electric field to move charged molecules through a gel matrix, typically agarose or polyacrylamide. Smaller molecules move faster through the gel, while larger ones migrate more slowly, enabling separation. This apparatus is essential for analyzing molecular samples, verifying the success of techniques like PCR, or preparing samples for further studies, such as sequencing or protein characterization.
