文摘The past years have witnessed a rapid development of DNA nanotechnology in nanomaterials science with a central focus on programmable material construction on the nanoscale. An efficient method is therefore highly desirable（but challenging） for analytical/preparative purification of DNA-conjugated nano-objects and their DNA-assemblies. In this regard, agarose gel electrophoresis, a traditional technique that has been invented for biomacromolecule separation, has found many innovative uses.This includes shape, size, charge, and ligand-valence separations of nanoparticle building blocks as well as monitoring a self-assembly process towards product identification and purification.
