Purification of Infliximab[3] begins at Stage 1 with the filtration of the harvest material using a spin filter. The harvest is then clarified and undergoes 3 main chromatographic steps. Firstly‚ at Stage 2‚ the direct protein capture by Protein A affinity chromatography helps to remove a large majority of the impurities whicn include viruses and media components. At Stage 3‚ prior to cation exchange chromatography‚ the purified material in the eluted stream is then subjected to freezing‚ thawing

mummion assignment Task 1 – purification Aim We were given a sample of mummion in the form of dried mud from a lake; the aim of the practical was to purify the sample and separate it from the insoluble impurities into the form of mummion salt. Context A long time ago mummion was used to preserve the bodies of ‘mummies’ in ancient Egypt‚ mummion along with other naturally occurring preservatives was used to treat the organs before the bodies were wrapped. This purification practical happens very often

Experiment 4: Isolation of Essential Oils from Eugenol Background: Anyone who has walked through a forest or who enjoys the variety of fragrances that flowers have to offer knows that many plants and trees have their own distinctively pleasant odors. These odors are due to the volatile essential oils‚ many of which have been prized commodities since ancient times. If a list of commercially important essential oils was compiled the list would exceed 200 essential oils. Thyme‚ garlic‚ peppermint

Eggs I have chosen to use the recipe for classic white cake. This recipe has all the basic ingredients such as butter‚ sugar‚ milk‚ flour and eggs. The ingredient I have chosen to use is eggs. The functions of eggs in the cake are structure‚ emulsification‚ moisture‚ flavor‚ color and aeration. One of the functions of eggs is the structure. An egg is a major structure provider and gives the cake firmness‚ lightness and stability. When eggs are beaten and heated they turn mixtures from a liquid

think that an egg is made up of cells‚ when in actuality and egg itself is a cell. An egg has several main parts‚ including the egg shell (that acts as the cell membrane)‚ the egg yolk and the egg white. There’s also a tiny white mass that is very important‚ it’s called the ovum‚ and it is the living part of the cell. If a hen lays an egg without mating with a cock then the ovum will not develop. If the hen does mate‚ then the egg will be fertile and it develops into a little chick. The egg being worked

Osmosis on Egg Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to test the effects of hypertonic‚ isotonic‚ and hypotonic environments on the weight of a shell-less egg. We tested the weight of the egg after thirty minutes in water as well as corn syrup. I hypothesized that when the egg was placed in water‚ it would swell and gain weight because it was in a hypotonic environment. That hypothesis was correct as the egg grew slightly and the weight when up. I also hypothesised that when the egg was placed

1. EGG INOCULATION The fertile hen’s egg can be used to cultivate and propagate various types of viruses. Because of the ability to alter their tropism and to adapt to a new host species‚ many viruses become capable of growing in chick embryo tissues wherein they frequently attain a much higher concentration than in the tissues of the natural host. STRUCTURE OF AN EGG The extra-embryonic membranes of the chick embryo arise from three germinal layers: the endoderm‚ mesoderm and ectoderm

Introduction It is crucial in the field of microbiology to study the morphology‚ biological activity‚ and the behavior of microbes thus the isolation of such microbes from the environment is necessary because it allows scientists to study them in close proximity. Microbial life forms are found everywhere. They are major players in biogeochemical cycling of elements and primary producers in numerous environments. There are also some microbes living inside higher forms of organisms that aid in digestion
