Gel electrophoresis

Gel electrophoresis showing six DNA tracks. In the first row (left), DNA with known fragment sizes was used as a reference. Different bands indicate different fragment sizes (the smaller, the faster it travels, the lower it is in the image); different intensities indicate different concentrations (the brighter, the more DNA). DNA was made visible using ethidium bromide and ultraviolet light.
