  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-009942",
  "term": "Rate of migration",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The speed at which a charged particle or molecule moves through a medium under the influence of an electric field. This velocity is directly proportional to the electric field strength and the electrophoretic mobility of the species. In electrophoresis, it is a key parameter determining the separation of biomolecules, often measured in millimeters per hour.",
