RESPIRATORY PIGMENTS Colored‚ metal-containing proteins that combine reversibly with oxygen‚ found in the body fluids or tissues of multi-cellular invertebrate animals and microorganisms. The role of these pigments is primarily to aid in the transport of molecular oxygen. Thus they are distinguished from respiratory enzymes‚ which are concerned with the metabolic consumption of oxygen. Four distinctly colored groups of respiratory pigments exist among invertebrates: hemoglobins (purple‚ become orange-red

able to experimentally analyze and isolate amino acids by separation techniques. One such method of separation is thin layer chromatography (TLC). In this method‚ a silica coated aluminum plate is spotted with the solution being separated‚ and the plate is placed in a developing jar containing a small amount of solvent. With time‚ the solvent

Gas chromatography (GC) is a chromatography technique where the separation of individual components (analytes) from a sample relies on their differing distribution between a mobile and stationary phase. The mobile phase carries the analytes through the stationary phase. In GC‚ it’s an inert gas (usually helium or nitrogen). The gas must be inert‚ so it won’t react with the sample to give a false reading. The stationary phase is a substance fixed in place to which the sample adsorbs because

Candy chromatography My experiment is called candy chromatography. This project is mainly about the colors that are mixed with other colors to make candy markers Koolaid and much more. I think that only the color of the candy is going to show up on the coffee paper. I think that threw the entire experiment the color in the candy is going to show up the entire time. I think this is going to happen because most of the colors are solid colors. The material and equipment used was a sample of candy

A pigment is a natural coloring matter that usually comes from a plant or animal. Today‚ there are synthetic pigments with the advancement of technology‚ but during the Italian Renaissance they did not have these luxuries. They had to obtain their pigment naturally. There were different classifications of pigment‚ each producing a different desired color. The material that contained the desired pigment had to be grinded very finely‚ and then the pigment would need to be added to a base to create

9.1 Orbitals and Theories of Chemical Bonding 1. Which one of the statements concerning valence bond (VB) and molecular orbital (MO) bond theories is correct? a) MO theory predicts that electrons are localized between pairs of atoms. b) In VB theory‚ bonding electrons are delocalized over the molecule. c) MO theory accurately describes bonding in O2 and NO‚ VB theory does not. d) VB theory can describe molecular bonding in excited states. e) MO theory is used to accurately predict

Chromatography is a laboratory technique for the separation of a mixture. The mixture is dissolved in a fluid called the mobile phase‚ which carries it through a structure holding another material called the stationary phase. The various constituents of the mixture travel at different speeds‚ causing them to separate. The separation is based on differential partitioning between the mobile and stationary phases. Subtle differences in a compound’s partition coefficient result in differential retention

Abstract: Enzymes help determine a phenotype through proteins. The experiment presented tests how enzymes affect the pigment in the eye of Drosophila. What was resulted in this experiment is that when certain enzymes change‚ a mutation is created‚ causing the change of pigments in the different Drosophila’s eyes. The production of one enzyme is one gene and a mutation of this gene can cause an enzyme to be inactive which leads to the phenotype changing. Introduction: George W. Beadle and Edward L

COLUMN AND THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY Group 9 RAMOS‚ Sharina Joy; REYES Aina Marie; REYES Jallisa Maan; RUBIO‚ John Michael; SABINO Patricia Anne; SANTOS‚ Carlos Rafael ABSTRACT To separate the colored components of siling labuyo and to determine the purity of the components‚ the students performed a column and thin or solid-liquid chromatography procedure. The solid may be almost any material that does not dissolve in liquid phase. But for this experiment‚ the solid used by the students was
