Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/10/2018 -- A molecular weight marker is used during electrophoresis on the gel, to identify the approximate size of the molecule. On the gel matrix, the principle used to identify the molecular weight is that the migration rate is inversely proportional to the molecular weight. Therefore, the effective logarithmic scale formed on the gel is used to estimate the size and weight of the unknown protein or DNA or RNA, provided that the molecular weight of the marker is already known. Molecular weight markers can run on either polyacrylamide gel or agarose gel. Before the commencement of the gel electrophoresis, the molecular weight markers are loaded in the lane adjacent to the sample lane, for easy determination of the weight and size of the unknown samples like RNA or DNA or protein.
The major drivers for the global Molecular Weight Marker Market are increasing number of biotechnology patents and the expenses on research and development. Also, increased public sector funding for basic research in biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies is anticipated to drive the demand for molecular weight markers significantly. There is remarkable opportunity for the molecular weight markers market as biotechnology laboratories, life science & pharmaceutical companies and other end users are constantly utilizing separation and analysis technology. Currently, there are cutting edge expansions of profiling applications which are expected to continuously boost demand for molecular weight markers.
