The repton model of gel electrophoresis

Soft Condensed Matter 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

We discuss the repton model of agarose gel electrophoresis of DNA. We review previous results, both analytic and numerical, as well as presenting a new numerical algorithm for the efficient simulation of the model, and suggesting a new approach to the model's analytic solution.
