This protocol demonstrates agarose gel electrophoresis for DNA analysis, suggesting effective safety measures and visualization techniques.
This protocol describes thepreparation and execution of agarose gel electrophoresisfor DNA analysis. The method is used toseparate DNA fragments based on size, using anelectric field in an agarose gel matrix. The gel is stained withethidium bromide (EtBr)for visualization underUV light. This protocol followsstrict safety guidelinesfor handlingEtBr, a known mutagen. Properpersonal protective equipment (PPE), designated waste disposal, and workspace decontaminationare required.
