Group No.: 3 Date Submitted: August 3 ‚ 2013 Experiment No. 4 : PAPER CHROMATOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION The objective of this experiment was to resolve a given sample into its components by paper chromatography‚ to evaluate the retention factor of each component in the sample and to compare the relative solubility of the various components of a mixture of colors in a given solvent. METHODOLOGY To prepare for the experiment‚ place solvent into a test tube‚ so that the level of solution

Chromatography Experiment of the Drosophila Eye Pigmentation Pathway Introduction: How can the use of chromatography help explain single gene mutations of the drosophila melanogaster bio-synthetic pigment pathway? This experiment was meant to help connect the mode of inheritance with different eye color mutations and pinpoint where they occur in the pigment pathway. The drosophila eye color is a result of two bio-synthetic eye color pathways‚ this is expressed as a trait or phenotype‚ a multigene

Paper Chromatography Chromatography comes from the Greek word khromatos (color) and graphein (to write); i.e. paper chromatography is literally color writing on paper. This method tests the purity of compounds and identifies substances. This analytical process‚ despite having been replaced by the success of thin layer chromatography‚ still stands as a valuable teaching tool‚ and is nevertheless very common. This method is very useful because not only is it a relatively quick process‚ but also

EXPERIMENT 5: CHROMATOGRAPHY Abstract Paper Chromatography uses a chromatogram paper as its stationary phase and the solvent as the mobile phase. Retention factor is the ratio of the distance travelled by the sample to the distance travelled by the solvent. This experiment aims to separate organic compounds‚ to compute Rf values and to identify unknown compounds using Rf values. The ten samples underwent paper chromatography to determine the components of the unknown sample. The mobile phase allowed

Chromatography Abstract Paper chromatography is one of the methods under chromatography‚ it can use in identifying unknown compounds using known compound and it can also use as a separation technique based on the differences in affinities of components of the mixture to a stationary phase and a mobile phase. In the experiment‚ the stationary phase was the filter paper onto which the dye samples were dropped onto while the mobile phase was the solvent mixture containing ethanol and water which

Paper chromatography Presented by – Miss. Shruti Vilas Kharat. SYBSc / FS13164 History- Paper Chromatography (PC) was first introduced by German scientist Christian Friedrich Schonbein (1865). PC is considered to be the simplest and most widely used of the chromatographic techniques because of its applicability to isolation‚ identification and quantitative determination of organic and inorganic compounds. Definition- Paper chromatography is an analytical method technique for separating and

Analysis of Food Colorings by Paper Chromatography Introduction Paper Chromatography one method for testing the purity of compounds and identifying substances. This is a useful technique because it is relatively quick and requires small quantities of material. Separations in paper chromatography involve the same principles as those in thin layer chromatography. The substances are distributed between a stationary phase and a mobile phase. The stationary phase is usually

PAPER and COLUMN CHROMATOGRAPHY REPORT 1. 2. The unknown code is an amino acid‚ Glycine. To justify the reason is because the retention factor is the same exact number as the Glycine. The data of the unknown shows everything to be exact with the data of the Glycine 3. The mobile phase is the more polar during the capillary action of the experiment. As soon as the paper touches the mobile phase‚ the solvent rises to the amino acids. This is where you can find polarity of the amino acids.

The purpose of this experiment was to isolate anthocyanins‚ decompose them into their components (anthocyanidins)‚ and to analyze the anthocyanins‚ and their corresponding anthocyanidins using paper chromatography‚ and spectrophotometric analysis procedures. Based on experimental data the blueberries contained the most amount of anthocyanins at 1.92 x 10-6 g‚ followed by blackberries at 1.19 x 10-6 g‚ finally followed by raspberries at 5.84 x 10-7 g. The paper chromatography data also supports the

Plant Pigment Chromatography VII. Analysis (Questions) 1. What factors are involved in the separation of pigments? Factors that are involved in the separation of pigments can include pigment solubility‚ the attraction between the pigments and paper and the size of each pigment particle. Because of these factors the results were as they were. Beta-carotene traveled the furthest because it forms no hydrogen bonds to the chromatography paper and is slightly soluble in the solvent. Contrastingly
