    Abstract:
    HydroLink materials represent a novel family of gels composed of unique polymer matrices. The applications of HydroLink to molecular biology and, specifically, to DNA technology have been carefully investigated. Our results indicate that the HydroLink matrix developed for double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) is an excellent tool for electrophoretic separations in fixed electric fields. Excellent linear resolution from 100 to 5000 base pairs is easily achieved with good resolution albeit non-linear from 6000 to 23000 base pairs. The broad range of separation in addition to increased mechanical strength of dsDNA HydroLink represents a distinct advantage over other matrices currently used in DNA electrophoretic analysis.
