People teaching or learning DNA gel electrophoresis
Worth noticing
The validation table distinguishes calibration sets from held-out checks and reports RMS errors or size-range agreement.

Field notes

The listed model covers DNA migration, plasmid forms, band broadening, heating and circuit behavior, buffer chemistry, dyes, and practical bench effects. Its validation table separates calibration data from held-out comparisons; for example, the page reports a held-out size curve within 15% over 200 bp–12 kb at 1% agarose. The project notes that some constants are placeholders, so its stated scope and reported checks matter when interpreting results.
