Electrophoresis (Electro: electric, Phoresis (greek word): to carry) is the migration of charged molecules or particles under the influence of an electric field. Electrophoresis-based methods are extensively employed for the analysis, separation and purification of biomolecules such as nucleic acid and proteins in laboratories.

CRISPR gene editing is a powerful genetic engineering technology that allows scientists to target and modify specific DNA sequences. Learn how CRISPR-Cas9 works, how DNA repair creates edits, and how base editing, prime editing, CRISPRi, and CRISPRa expand genome-editing applications.
