β¦ Synopsis
A very simple method is described which allows the separation of DNA molecules in a wide molecular weight range (from 0.6 to about (30 \mathrm{~kb}) ) in the same electrophoresis agarose gel. This is based on the achievement of a voltage gradient through a simple device consisting of a Plexiglas plate placed slantwise with respect to the gel surface plane, submerged in the electrophoretic running buffer. Further applications of our system are also described. c 1993 Academic Press, Inc.

We describe a procedure for the electroelution of nucleic acids from agarose or acrylamide gels. The method employs a combination of low-and high-ionic-strength buffers so that nucleic acids electroelute under a high-voltage gradient but accumulate over a high-salt barrier. By this means electroelut
