Separation of Amino Acids by Cation Exchange Chromatography Introduction and Purpose: Amino acids are small biomolecules that have a carboxylic acid backbone in common‚ as well as an amino group attached to a saturated carbon. There are many amino acids‚ but there are 20 most commonly know amino acids. Amino acids are the fundamenta building blocks of other biomolecules like proteins and ezymes (Davidson‚ 2015). This experiment examined a mixture of 3 amino acids. The purpose of this experiment

Task 3: How could Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) have been used to prepare a pure sample of aspirin? The method of using thin layer chromatography is easy‚ quick and relatively cheap to carry out this makes it ideal for preparing pure samples of aspirin. Equipment Required: • Thin Layer Chromatography Paper • Ruler • Pencil • Solvent • Beaker • Micro Capillary • Access to a fume cupboard • UV light • Clingfilm • Individuals sample of aspirin • Pure sample of aspirin • Sample of salicylic acid Method:

In order to purify CelB2 protein bound to maltose-binding-protein‚ amylose affinity chromatography was performed. The amylose resin present in 20% ethanol was first diluted by adding 10 mL of 20 mM TrisHCl‚ pH 7.4‚ 0.2 M NaCl‚ 1 mM EDTA and centrifuged at 700 rpm for 5 minutes. After decanting the buffer‚ another 10 mL of TrisHCl‚ pH 7.4‚ 0.2 M NaCl‚ 1 mM EDTA was added to this resin solution and centrifuged at 700 rpm for another 5 minutes to further dilute the ethanol concentration in the resin

The bacteria in yogurt was viewed a long with a slice of potato‚ and a thin skin of red onion. The potato was dyed with iodine while the red onion was dyed with methane blue. The students had to assemble the first three slides. Two more slides were provided these are the yeast and protozoa cells

Column Chromatography of Plant Pigments Jaybee Balilea‚ Sharmaine Baysic‚ Maria Anjelette Patricia Belen 3Bio-7‚ Department of Biological Sciences‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines Abstract Column Chromatography is a form of solid-liquid adsorption chromatography and depends on the essential principles as does in thin layer chromatography. It was used in this experiment in separating and analyzing the different components of Capsicum frutescens (siling labuyo) with the use

Lab 4: Photosynthesis and Chromatography of Spinach Leaves Discussion: The chromatography of the spinach leaves was taken to establish what pigments were present in the chloroplasts of the leaves. The solvent carried and separated the different pigments up the cellulose paper. The solvent moved up the paper because of capillary action because of adhesion of the solvent molecules and the paper. The pigments dissolved in the solvent also were carried up the paper and were separated because

separated by a procedure called chromatography. The procedure uses a special paper and solvent. The chlorophyll molecules adhere to the paper. The solvent molecules move up the paper by capillary action. Each chlorophyll molecule will travel up the paper at different rates. Hypothesis: If chlorophyll is removed from the plant‚ then the different pigments in the plant can be visible. Materials: -Spinach -Coin -Chromatography paper -Ruler

Gas Chromatography Purpose: The purpose of the gas chromatography lab is to find out how different substances interact with the surface of a solid. Chromatography is a separation technique that depends on the relative distribution of the components of a mixture between a mobile phase and a solid stationary phase. Chromatography measures the tendency of a substance to interact with the surface of a solid or to remain in a mobile phase. When doing a chromatography lab the mobile phase has to
