Forensic Chemistry and Forensic Chemist Forensic chemistry is becoming an increasingly popular topic. It is being used quite often in the real world with police investigations‚ cases‚ and is also being magnified in television shows including Forensic Files‚ CSI‚ and Bones (What is Forensic Chemistry?). Forensic chemistry is important because without it we wouldn’t know the outcome of a crime. The forensic chemist’s job is to examine evidence given to them from a crime scene‚ when it happened‚ and

Candy Chromatography Background info: Paper chromatography is a logical technique used to separate works of a solution. Three examples of how we apply this technique to real-life would be: contaneminants in water‚ separation of plant pigmentation‚ and analysis of narcotics. Source: http://www.discoveriesinmedicine.com/Bar-Cod/Chromatography.html#b Purpose: To find out why candies are different colors. * Materials: Candy with a colored coating‚ like Skittles® or M&Ms® (4 different

To purify the protein in the cell lysate from lab 1 through nickel affinity chromatography. Protein purification should result in only one type of protein ideally‚ which is the protein of interest‚ wt-DHFR and mut-DHFR in this case. A pure protein allows for further analysis on the protein to be conducted‚ such as its concentration (Bradford assay)‚ its molecular weight‚ and its biological activity. 2. Overview of experiments Buffer Preparation Add the liquid sodium phosphate‚ solid sodium chloride

procedures of this laboratory will be used to gain a conceptual and practical understanding of separation techniques used to isolate monomers from their respective polymers. Namely‚ the techniques that will be explored are dialysis and gel filtration chromatography. In the remaining two experimental procedures‚ colorimetric assays will be used to detect the presence of certain carbohydrates. Glucose oxidase and Iodine Reactions will be performed in conjunction to demonstrate the procedure of such assays

Purpose: Unknown mixtures will be separated by means of chromatography in which the mixture will be passed in a solution through a medium leaving behind components of the mixture at different rates‚ therefore‚ different spots on the absorbing substance. This will help determine the identity of unknown mixtures. The spot colors on the strip of filter paper and the Rf values of the unknown samples will be compared to those of known samples. To find the position of the spots on the strip of paper‚ we

Title: Competing Nucleophiles (Exp 24‚ pp 211-221‚ pp 808-823‚ pp 836-842) Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the nucleophilic strength of chloride and bromide ions as it reacts with 1-butanol (n-butyl) and 2-methyl-2-propanol (t-butyl alcohol) under SN1 and SN2 conditions. Method: 40 g of ice and approximately 30 ml of sulfuric acid is cautiously added to a 100 mL beaker respectively. Weigh 7.6 g of ammonium chloride and 14.0 g of ammonium bromide and place it in

Our pure products will be analyzed with gas chromatography to determine the success of the distillation. Procedures The experiment was performed as stated in the course textbook: Pavia‚ D.
