protein electrophoresis uses electric field to separate charged blood protein in a gel. this helps diagnoses various diseases, e.g. cancer. a protein typically has 23 excess electrons. the needed force to separate a protein is 10-14 n. the required electric field in the equipment is n/c.

Respuesta :

The required electric field in the equipment is  35.77 * [tex]10^{17}[/tex] N/C.

We know that,

E = F / q

where,

E = Electric field

F = Electric force

q = Charge of electron

Given that,

F = 10e - 14 N = 13.18 N

No. of electrons = 23

q = 23 * 1.602 * [tex]10^{-19}[/tex] = 36.846 * [tex]10^{-19}[/tex] C

E = 13.18 / 36.846 * [tex]10^{-19}[/tex] = 35.77 * [tex]10^{17}[/tex] N / C

Protein electrophoresis is a test used to measure specific proteins in blood. The separation of proteins is based on their electric charge.
