Re: [DIYbio] Re: Paper electrophoresis... super available molecule separation?

If given the proper conditions the DNA would bind and be stuck. As it travels it may shear. Since electrophoresis applies a constant force onto the DNA, it seems that it would pull it to shreds. I believe someone mentioned this exact idea in a previous post.
