Chapter 14, Problem 21PDQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason due to which difference in an amino acid is shown by fingerprinting technique, but no difference is revealed by electrophoresis in case of migration of amino acids.
Introduction: Electrophoresis and fingerprinting techniques are effective tools for the determination of migrating abilities of different types of macromolecules.
