Drink apple cider vinegar with water, tea or juice to potentially reduce high blood pressure, a contributing factor in heart disease. 1  Studies have shown that rats responded positively to the acetic acid.
We will use agarose gel electrophoresis to determine DNA fragment sizes, and to quantify DNA. This technique separates DNA molecules based on size. DNA has a net negative charge that is proportional to its size. When placed in a matrix of agarose and exposed to an electric field, DNA molecules will move towards the positive electrode.
Electrophoresis is used in DNA for fingerprints for forensics, paternity testing, checking PCR reactions, disease detection and to look for evolutionary relationships among organisms. A solution of negatively charged DNA molecules are pulled through gel using an electric field.
