Biological chemistry 1B Experiment 1: Thin layer chromatography [TLC] Aim The aim of this experiment is to apply the technique of TLC to first separate out a mixture of coloured dyes and then to do the same for selected range of amino acids. Procedure 2 MMs of each different colour were collected into separate beakers. Approximately 5 drops of water is added to each of the beakers containing the MMs and the tablets were stirred until

first used to separate colored components of plant leaves. Today‚ the name is a bit misleading‚ because most forms of chromatography do not depend on color. Several types of chromatography are commonly used‚ among which are paper chromatography‚ thin-layer chromatography or TLC‚ liquid-liquid chromatography‚ gas chromatography‚ and high performance liquid chromatography or HPLC. Chromatography is so useful that some form can be found in most scientific laboratories around the world. For example‚ in

testing was invented by a Russian botanist‚ Mikhail. S. Tswett‚ to assist him in the study of the analysis of the coloring in plants in 1903. (factmonster.com) There are four basic methods of chromatography: liquid chromatography‚ gas chromatography‚ thin layer chromatography and paper chromatography. Paper chromatography is the best method of separation used in candy chromatography. There are two phases incorporated in the process of separation of the candy color dyes. chromatography works because the

polar as the compounds with lower Rf values‚ the compounds that are most polar tend to stay longer with the polar adsorbent‚ while the least polar compound travels with the eluent that is lower in polarity. 2. TLC in today’s experiment stands for Thin Layer Chromatography. 3. From least polar to the most polar: Heptane-Toluene-Acetone-Methanol-Acetic acid ‚ ‚ ‚ ‚ 4. The Rf (Retardation factor) is the ratio of the distance that the compound/mixture traveled to the distance the solvent/mobile

Introduction Esters derive from the reaction between a carboxylic acid and an alcohol (Figure 1). Figure 1. The General Reaction Equation of Ester Formation From A Carboxylic Acid & An Alcohol. Carboxylic acids contain the functional group –COOH whereas in ester’s the hydrogen is replaced with an R denoting any alkyl or aryl group; -RCOOR’. Esters with low-molecular weights are commonly used as components in the flavor’s and odors of many fruits & fragrances’ as well as to enhance foods & beverages

A simple‚ precise‚ accurate and rapid High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatographic method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous estimation of of ellagic acid‚ chlorogenic acid‚ gallic acid and quercetin in the leaf extract of Terminalia tomentosa and its Formulation. The stationary phase used was precoated silica gel 60F254.The mobile phase used was a mixture of Butyl acetate: Formic Acid: Distilled Water 14:5:5 (v/v). The detection of spots were carried out at 254 nm. This HPTLC method

opposition to‚ external forces like gravity Capillary action is sometimes called capillarity‚ capillary motion‚ or wicking Capillarity Types:- Capillarity Rise:- The upward movement of a liquid against the force of gravity inside narrow spaces and thin tubes is called capillary rise . This property of liquid is called capillarity. A common apparatus used to demonstrate capillarity is the capillary tube. Reason:- Capillarity occurs because of intermolecular forces between the liquid and surrounding

catalyzed Knoevengael condensation of butyl cyanoacetate and corresponding aldehyde led to the forming Butyl 2-Cyano-(3‚5 dichloro-phenyl)-2-propenoate. The analyses that were used to prove its composition and structure include; IR spectroscopy‚ thin layer chromatography (TLC)‚ and CHN analysis. A radical copolymerization reaction was conducted‚ with the initiation by radical initiator 1‚1’-azobiscyclohexanecarbonitrile. CHN analysis‚ IR spectroscopy‚ and Proton NMR analysis were used to prove its
