What are the Different Types of Polyacrylamide Gels?
There are two main types of polyacrylamide gels: 1. Denaturing Gels: These gels, such as SDS-PAGE, use detergent (SDS) to denature proteins, ensuring they are separated based on size alone. 2. Non-Denaturing Gels: These gels, also known as native gels, preserve the native structure and charge of proteins, allowing for the separation based on both size and charge.
