  • Electrophoresis gels and cross-linking agents for their preparation
    Patent number: 6818718
    Abstract: Method of separating molecules by providing a cross-linked polymer gel having a cross-linking moiety of the formula wherein X, X′, Y, Z and R2 are as defined in the specification. A sample containing the molecules to be separated is placed on the gel, and the gel is subjected to a separation technique.
    Type: Grant
