Not sure I understand what you mean by preparative and analytical? and what are you precipitating, DNA, RNA, protein? I sense you are seeking the answer to exam questions here...perhaps you need to do the reading? I'm sure you've been given the clues in your lecture notes, do the work...like I did.

At least if it's a homework question, put it in the homework section.

 

Anyway I think analytical is where you just which to find information out about the molecule, and preparative is where you want a functioning molecule once you've done electrophoresing. So SDS (detergent denatures the protein) would be analytical, PAGE would be preparative.
