Invitrogen Novex IEF Gels are used for determining the isoelectric point (pI) of proteins and are excellent for native applications.
Isoelectric focusing (IEF) is an electrophoresis technique that separates proteins based on their isoelectric point (pI). The pI is the pH at which a protein has no net charge and does not move in an electric field. Novex IEF Gels effectively create a pH gradient so proteins separate according to their unique pI. These gels can be used to determine the pI or to detect minor changes in a protein due to deamination, phosphorylation, or glycosylation. They can also resolve different proteins of similar size that cannot be resolved on standard SDS-PAGE gels. Novex IEF Gels are excellent for native, nondenaturing applications using soluble proteins. All Novex IEF Gels are provided at 1.0 mm thickness and a 5% acrylamide concentration.
