Isoelectric focusing information


Scheme of isoelectric focusing with immobilized pH gradient (IPG) gels.

Isoelectric focusing (IEF), also known as electrofocusing, is a technique for separating different molecules by differences in their isoelectric point (pI).[1][2] It is a type of zone electrophoresis usually performed on proteins in a gel that takes advantage of the fact that overall charge on the molecule of interest is a function of the pH of its surroundings.[3]
