title: Capillary affinity gel electrophoresis: new technique for specific recognition of DNA sequence and the mutation detection on DNA.
abstract: The present state of studies on capillary affinity gel electrophoresis, which is a new technique for the specific recognition of a target DNA sequence, is reviewed. This article includes the principle, theory, methods, and applications of this technology. The great potential of capillary affinity gel electrophoresis for the sequence-specific recognition of DNA and the detection of mutations in specific genes is illustrated.
