Gel Filtration

Name:
Gel Filtration
Detailed information:
A type of fractionation procedure in which molecules are separated from each other according to differences in size and shape; the action is similar to that of molecular sieves. Dextran gels (three-dimensional networks of polysaccharide chains) are usually used in this method known as gel-filtration chromatography.See Fractionation; Molecular Sieve.
