Discussion Using the Thin Layer Chromatography experiment‚ caffeine was found to be the most polar due to the fact that it stayed closer to the stationary phase. Caffeine contains four amine groups that are extremely polar as a result of the hydrogen bond and amide functional group. Acetaminophen was found to be the second most polar analgesic drug tested. Acetaminophen contains a polar alcohol group on one side and amide group on the other but also includes non-polar functional groups that consisted

CHEM%2315%Fall%2014% Creating useful and beautiful molecules using synthetic organic chemistry – Synthesis of Aspirin and Indigo INTRODUCTION Aspirin Salicylic acid occurs naturally in the bark of willow trees. Prior to the 1800’s‚ willow bark was often brewed into a tea‚ or chewed to relieve pain. While the salicylic acid is effective at reducing pain it was found to irritate the lining of the stomach. It was mostly by chance that on August 10‚ 1897 Felix Hoffmann‚ a German chemist who obtained

Making TLC Plates from Bulk TLC Silica Gels Many TLC users prefer to use pre-coated TLC plates‚ but others because of their special needs‚ or because they need special additives or a special thickness‚ coat their own TLC plates. This paper is a quick review of what is needed for the process. Initial instructions for plate coating: If reproducible plates are needed‚ then the user should invest in a coating device from Camag or Desaga (addresses below). The devices consist of a tray that holds

Figure 1: Affinity chromatography of fumarase with the Ni2+-NTA-agarose column. Extract (9.9 mL) containing yeast (3.76g) in extraction buffer containing 0.1% Igapel CA-630 and protease inhibitors were pumped through Ni2+-NTA-agarose column. Fractions were collected by 1.5 mL portions by use of wash buffer (20.0 mL)‚ imidazole elution buffer (26.3 mL)‚ and wash buffer (10.0 mL)‚ again. Absorption readings were taken for all fractions with a Cary50 set at 280nm. The fumarase activity was determined

The Purity and Purification of Solids Recrystallization ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ impure adipic acid is purified though recrystallization. The impure adipic acid is dissolved in a solvent. After cooling it is ran through a vacuum filter to separate any moisture. The dry crystals are then weight for percent yield and the melting point range is taken to test the purity. There were two different trials ran in this experiment. The difference between the two was the addition of charcoal in

diabetes but no other major risk factors for heart disease probably should not be on low-dose aspirin therapy‚ new research suggests. The new recommendations are based on close examination of nine studies that found the risks of some aspirin side effects‚ such as stomach bleeding‚ should be better balanced against the possible benefits of using aspirin. The larger theme here is that use of low-dose aspirin to prevent heart attacks in people who have not already experienced one is probably not as efficacious

Separation Of A Dye Mixture Using Chromatography ********* AP Chemistry (3rd Block) Fauquier High School 8/ 31/ 13 ABSTRACT: The Rf values of seven known color dyes and three unknown samples were observed in order to compare results and discover the hidden identities of the three samples. Three solvents‚ H2O‚ Isopropyl alcohol‚ and a 2% NaCl solution‚ were introduced to the dotted chromatography strips to show three different ratios for each dye on

Forty million pounds are produced each year. The chemical name for aspirin is Acetylsalicylic acid. Aspirin is a pain reliever and a fever reducer. Aspirin originated from the bark of a White Willow Tree. Chewing the bark however is extremely acidicand irritates the mucous membranes

Candy Chromatography: What makes those colors? The point of doing this project is to use paper chromatography to see which dyes are used in the coatings of your favorite colored candies. Chromatography is a technique for separating mixtures. Chromatography can be used to separate specific components from a complex mixture‚ based on molecular size or other chemical properties. It can also be used to identify chemicals‚ for example crime scene samples like blood‚ drugs‚ or explosive residue. Highly

Thin Layer Chromatography Introduction Thin Layer Chromatography or TLC is a technique used as a separation and identification technique. There are many forms of chromatography‚ but one thing that remains constant throughout all of the types of chromatography is that there is a stationary phase and a mobile phase. In the case of TLC the stationary phase is the silica gel on the TLC tray. Procedure Chromatograph method is a method of separating mixtures of two or more compounds. Two phases
