Genome integrity analysis of adeno-associated viruses (AAV) using multi-capillary gel electrophoresis

5 Nov 2021

In this application note, it is demonstrated that multiple AAV samples with different serotypes or different genome sizes can be run simultaneously on the multi-capillary BioPhase 8800 system to accelerate the execution of AAV genome integrity analysis.

ElectrophoresisElectrophoresis equipment is used to separate mixtures of protein, DNA or RNA, based on their electric charge, size and other physical characteristics, by passing them through a medium such as a polyacrylamide gel, an agarose gel or a capillary tube. Electrophoresis equipment includes horizontal and vertical gel electrophoresis chambers, isoelectric focusing systems, 2D electrophoresis and capillary electrophoresis instruments. Precast gels with a gradient can be used or gels can be hand cast. Samples are run alongside ladders or markers to identify the approximate size of a molecule. Separated proteins and nucleic acids in the gel can be stained or probed with fluorescent markers and then imaged and detected using gel documentation instruments, transilluminators, densitometers and scanners.
