Q

TAE buffer function

A

used as a running buffer in gel electrophoresis to separate nucleic acids.

based on their molecular weight and net charge, the nucleic acids move either slowly or rapidly towards the positive pole. The smaller molecules run faster than the bigger molecules during the gel electrophoresis.
