Analytical and Preparative Electrophoresis in a Nonuniform Electric Field

A nonuniform electric field is proposed as the basis for the batch and continuous electrophoretic separation of biomolecules. A theoretical analysis shows the advantages of these techniques over conventional separation processes that use a uniform electric field. The mathematical modeling of such processes and its implications for the experimental design of a nonuniform field separator are presented.
