A blood plasma sample is electrophoresed. The sample is applied in the middle of the gel (le, theforigin' is halfway down on the gel) and the gel is stained with a lipoprotein-specific stain. The pl values of the lipoproteins in this sample are shown below: Chylomicron -8.6 LDL-6.8 VLDL - 6.5 HDL-5.2 To answer the question below, you make the assumption that migration is solely dependent on charge and that the distance migrated is linearly related to charge Complete the statement below. During gel electrophoresis at pH 6.8 the: HDL particles will migrate the shortest distance from the origin. chylamicrons will migrate farthest from the origin. VLDL particles carry a small positive charge HDL particles will be protonated and carry a positive charge. A blood plasma sample is electrophoresed.
