Preferred Label : electrophoresis, gel, Pulsed-Field;
MeSH definition : Gel electrophoresis in which the direction of the electric field is changed periodically.
This technique is similar to other electrophoretic methods normally used to separate
double-stranded DNA molecules ranging in size up to tens of thousands of base-pairs.
However, by alternating the electric field direction one is able to separate DNA molecules
up to several million base-pairs in length.;
MeSH synonym : electrophoresis, pulsed field gel; gel electrophoresis, pulsed-field; pulsed field gel electrophoresis; pulsed field gradient gel electrophoresis; electrophoresis, gel, pulsed-field gradient; gel electrophoresis, pulsed field; pulsed-field gradient gel electrophoresis; pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; electrophoresis, pulsed-field gel; electrophoresis, gel, pulsed field;
MeSH hyponym : field inversion gel electrophoresis; Orthogonal-Field Alternation-Gel electrophoresis; Contour-Clamped Homogeneous-Field gel electrophoresis; Alternation-Gel Electrophoresis, Orthogonal-Field; Electrophoresis, Orthogonal-Field Alternation-Gel; Orthogonal Field Alternation Gel Electrophoresis; Contour Clamped Homogeneous Field Gel Electrophoresis;
