Nonlinear electrophoretic response yields a unique parameter for separation of biomolecules

J Pel, D Broemeling, L Mai, HL Poon… - Proceedings of the …, 2009 - National Acad Sciences
We demonstrate a unique parameter for biomolecule separation that results from the nonlinear
response of long, charged polymers to electrophoretic fields and apply it to extraction and …

Novel electrophoresis mechanism based on synchronous alternating drag perturbation

A Marziali, J Pel, D Bizzotto, LA Whitehead - Electrophoresis, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
We present a novel means of transporting molecules in solution by applying a zero‐time‐average
alternating motive force to the molecules, and perturbing the molecular drag …

An instrument for automated purification of nucleic acids from contaminated forensic samples

DJ Broemeling, J Pel, DC Gunn, L Mai… - JALA: Journal of the …, 2008 - journals.sagepub.com
Forensic crime scene sample analysis, by its nature, often deals with samples in which there
are low amounts of nucleic acids, on substrates that often lead to inhibition of subsequent …

[HTML][HTML] Winnowing DNA for rare sequences: highly specific sequence and methylation based enrichment

JD Thompson, G Shibahara, S Rajan, J Pel, A Marziali - PloS one, 2012 - journals.plos.org
Rare mutations in cell populations are known to be hallmarks of many diseases and cancers.
Similarly, differential DNA methylation patterns arise in rare cell populations with …

A novel electrophoretic mechanism and separation parameter for selective nucleic acid concentration based on synchronous coefficient of drag alteration (SCODA)

J Pel - 2009 - open.library.ubc.ca
Molecular manipulation and separation techniques form the building blocks for much of
fundamental science, yet many separation challenges still remain, in fields as diverse as …

Efficient genomic DNA extraction from low target concentration bacterial cultures using SCODA DNA extraction technology

A So, J Pel, S Rajan, A Marziali - Cold Spring Harbor …, 2010 - cshprotocols.cshlp.org
DISCUSSION Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) analysis of purified DNA indicates
that the SCODA method typically yields DNA between 23 kb and 194 kb in length (see Fig. 1). …
