See for example this thread first.

A new scientific breakthrough
from IBM, and here's what they do:
Using 'atomic force'
to sort molecules (of course!)
No electrophoresis, no "goo"!


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Chit/Chat; Computers/Internet; Education; Hobbies; Humor; Miscellaneous; Poetry; Science; Society; The Poetry Branch; Weird Stuff
KEYWORDS: cool; electrophoresis; greywhiskers; humor; ibm; limerick; molecules; political; science; technology; vanity
Sorry 'bout that folks, I just read the article and wanted to see if I could actually use the word 'electrophoresis' in a limerick :-)

Cheers!

It sounds that this could speed up DNA analysis. If so I wonder how long it will be before this is adopted by CODIS. Any changes made to the process would probably need to go through some serious "legal" considerations.
