Having trouble with understanding Electrophoresis

LatexZone

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
Could you please explain to me what Electrophoresis is?


2. Relevant equations
No equations for this.


3. The attempt at a solution
I know it's a method of separating large molecules (such as DNA fragments or proteins) from a mixture of similar molecules, but I am still confused of what the concept is..

Thanks to anyone who can help.
