Abstract
INTERPRETATION of the results of paper electrophoresis1–3 is complicated by liquid movement in the paper, due to hydrostatic flow, attainment of equilibrium in the paper, and electro-osmosis. Hydrostatic flow, due to the difference in level of buffer in the electrode vessels, can be eliminated by arranging a siphon between the vessels1.
