Electrophoresis is a process of separation of charged solid or liquid particles under the influence of electric field over the gel. Electrosmosis involves the movement and separation of liquid over a porous material under the influence of electric field.

Explanation:

  • In electrophoresis solid or liquid particles can be separated under the influence of electric field whereas in electroosmosis only liquid particles can be separated under the influence of external electric field.
  • In electrophoresis blood, proteins, semen and other biological materials can be separated. Electroosmosis is suitable for separation of silt and clay soil particles.
