Abstract

An electrophoretic method for purifying a nucleic acid sample is disclosed. According to the method, the electrophoresis is effective to substantially reduce the concentration of contaminants relative to the concentration of desired nucleic acid in the nucleic acid sample, thereby producing a purified nucleic acid. In the method, the loading and recovery wells may be the same or different, and the electric fields may be DC or alternating.
