High-speed separations of DNA sequencing reactions by capillary electrophoresis

Anal Chem. 1990 May 1;62(9):900-3. doi: 10.1021/ac00208a003.

Abstract

Fluorescently labeled DNA fragments generated in enzymatic sequencing reactions are rapidly separated by capillary gel electrophoresis and detected at attomole levels within the gel-filled capillary. The application of this technology to automated DNA sequence analysis may permit the development of a second generation automated sequencer capable of efficient and cost-effective sequence analysis on the genomic scale.
