Question
Chapter 3, Problem 9P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The process by which SDS destroys structure of protein should be suggested.
Concept introduction:
SDS-PAGE gel is known as the sodium dodecyl sulfate PAGE and PAGE is known as the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It is a modification of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It is an analytical technique in biochemistry for the division of charged molecules in mixtures that are based on their molecular masses present in an electric field.
