Compare with Definitions
Electrophoresis
Electrophoresis (from the Greek "ηλεκτροφόρηση" meaning "to bear electrons") is the motion of dispersed particles relative to a fluid under the influence of a spatially uniform electric field. Electrophoresis of positively charged particles (cations) is sometimes called cataphoresis, while electrophoresis of negatively charged particles (anions) is sometimes called anaphoresis.
Electrodispersion
A broadening of the peaks in electrophoresis due to differential conductivity
Electrophoresis
The migration of charged colloidal particles or molecules through a stationary medium under the influence of an applied electric field usually provided by immersed electrodes. Also called cataphoresis.
Electrophoresis
A method of separating substances, especially proteins, and analyzing molecular structure based on the rate of movement of each component in a colloidal suspension while under the influence of an electric field.
Electrophoresis
(electricity) the migration of electrically charged molecules through a medium under the influence of an electric field

Electrophoresis
(analytical chemistry) (biochemistry), a method for the separation and analysis of large molecules (such as proteins) by migrating a colloidal solution of them through a gel; gel electrophoresis
Electrophoresis
The motion of charged molecules or particles in a liquid medium under the influence of an electric field; particles with a positive charge move toward the cathode and negative to the anode.
Electrophoresis
The application of the principle of electrophoresis to separate molecules, used as an analytical or preparative technique; as, separation by electrophoresis; gel electrophoresis.
Electrophoresis
The motion of charged particles in a colloid under the influence of an electric field; particles with a positive charge go to the cathode and negative to the anode
