Application
- Hexagonal Boron Nitride Quantum Dots Embedded on Layer-by-Layer Films for Peroxidase-Assisted Colorimetric Detection of beta-Galactosidase Producing Pathogens.: Demonstrates the innovative application of agarose in the development of diagnostic tools by embedding boron nitride quantum dots in agarose films for enzymatic colorimetric detection, highlighting its potential in biochemical assays and pathogen detection (Majumdar et al., 2024).
- Age, sex and breed effect on laboratory parameters in natural Babesia canis infection.: This study uses agarose gel electrophoresis for analyzing blood samples in veterinary medicine, showcasing its application in disease diagnostics and research (Janjic et al., 2024).
- Magnetic quaternary ammonium polymer bearing porous agarose for selective extraction of Aristolochic acids in the plasma.: Highlights the role of agarose in creating sophisticated extraction media for bioactive compounds, which is critical for advancing analytical techniques in toxicology and pharmacology (Liu et al., 2024).
Analysis Note
Sulfate content - used as an indicator of purity, since sulfate is the major ionic group present.
Gel strength - the force that must be applied to a gel to cause it to fracture.
Gel point - the temperature at which an aqueous agarose solution forms a gel as it cools. Agarose solutions exhibit hysteresis in the liquid-to-gel transition - that is, their gel point is not the same as their melting temperature.
Electroendosmosis (EEO) - a movement of liquid through the gel. Anionic groups in an agarose gel are affixed to the matrix and cannot move, but dissociable counter cations can migrate toward the cathode in the matrix, giving rise to EEO. Since electrophoretic movement of biopolymers is usually toward the anode, EEO can disrupt separations because of internal convection.
