Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis

2D-Gels (Coomassie stained)
Robots are used for the isolation of protein spots from 2D gels in modern laboratories.

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, abbreviated as 2-DE or 2-D electrophoresis, is a form of gel electrophoresis commonly used to analyze proteins. Mixtures of proteins are separated by two properties in two dimensions on 2D gels. 2-DE was first independently introduced by O'Farrell[1] and Klose[2] in 1975.
