Abstract
An electrophoretic gel comprising at least one crosslinked temperature-responsive polymeric compound having an LCST is disclosed. A method of separating and recovering substances involves conducting the electrophoresis of a sample containing substances to be separated using the electrophoretic gel at a temperature below the LCST, excising each portion of the gel containing the substance to be separated and raising the temperature of the excised portion to a temperature above the LCST to shrink the excised portion to recover the substances.
