State the principle involved in separation of DNA fragments using gel electrophoresis.

उत्तर
As negatively charged molecules, DNA fragments can be forced to migrate in the direction of the anode through a medium or matrix in order to be separated. Through the sifting effect that the agarose gel provides, the DNA fragments separate (resolve) according to their size. Therefore, the size of the fragment determines how far it travels.
