Development of gel electrophoresis unit to reduce DNA separation process time – a proof of concept

This paper reports the development and experimentation of a Gel Electrophoresis Unit that reduce the DNA separation process time. The power supply unit has been redesigned by employing a flyback converter of Switch Mode Power Supply which offers a compact solution of Gel Electrophoresis power pack....
