How to set up the current for the gel electrophoresis? Does it impact the value of current for the movement of DNA?  | How to set up the current for the gel electrophoresis? Does it impact the value of current for the movement of DNA?  | ||

<u>Introduction</u>  | |||
The purpose of this experiment is to find out how DNA migrates when exposed to UV light throughout the whole gel electrophoresis process.   | |||
<u>Procedure</u>  | |||
A 100 bp DNA ladder was electrophoresed at 50 volts, 40 minutes.   | |||
<small>* Note</small>    | |||
<small>1. Reused the gel from 2 days ago.</small>   | |||
<small>2. Did not put stain green in the TBE buffer covering the gel.</small>   | |||
<u>Result</u>  | |||
When the UV was shined throughout the experiment, the DNA movement is very blurry compared to when it was not.   | |||
However, I am not sure if this is due to the UV light or the reuse of the gel or the lack of stain green.   | |||
