Separation of Amino Acids by Cation Exchange Chromatography Introduction and Purpose: Amino acids are small biomolecules that have a carboxylic acid backbone in common‚ as well as an amino group attached to a saturated carbon. There are many amino acids‚ but there are 20 most commonly know amino acids. Amino acids are the fundamenta building blocks of other biomolecules like proteins and ezymes (Davidson‚ 2015). This experiment examined a mixture of 3 amino acids. The purpose of this experiment

Solubility as a Property of Matter A Lab of Chemicals‚ Chromatography‚ and Crime! Chemistry is a natural science that deals with the composition of matter and the changes it undergoes. At crime scenes‚ investigators often find unknown materials that need to be identified. If an unknown material is a mixture‚ an investigator may want to know one or two things about it: What are the ingredients of the mixture? Is the mixture found at the scene the same as a known mixture? A mixture is a collection

Column and Thin layer Chromatography of Red Siling Labuyo Marian Angelu Ramos‚ Rose Ann Refuela‚ Leomarie Duanne Sanchez‚ Paula Lynne Santos‚ Geraline Sarmiento‚ Jon Carlo Semana Group number Seven‚ 2E- Pharmacy‚ Faculty of Pharmacy‚ University of Santo Tomas ABSTRACT Chromatography is the separation of mixtures into their constituents. It relies on the differential solubilities or absorptivities of the components to be separated with respect to two phases‚ one of which is stationary and the

Chromatography refers to a set of laboratory methods used in separating as well as purifying biomolecules. A variety of chromatography techniques exist‚ and all depend on the interaction between a stationary and a mobile state. Two types of chromatography methods were examined in this investigation. First‚ ion-exchange chromatography was used. This method separates ions and polar molecules based on their affinity to the ion exchanger [2]. Specifically‚ cation-exchange chromatography was performed

Lab #3: Ion Exchange Chromatography Objective The purpose of this experiment was to separate proteins on the basis of their net charge at a particular pH. In cation exchange chromatography positively charged molecules are attracted to a negatively charged column. Conversely‚ in anion exchange chromatography‚ negatively charged molecules are attracted to a positively charged column. Experimental results could be monitored in a predictable way by controlling running pH‚ salt concentration‚ and by

Lab 4: Photosynthesis and Chromatography of Spinach Leaves Discussion: The chromatography of the spinach leaves was taken to establish what pigments were present in the chloroplasts of the leaves. The solvent carried and separated the different pigments up the cellulose paper. The solvent moved up the paper because of capillary action because of adhesion of the solvent molecules and the paper. The pigments dissolved in the solvent also were carried up the paper and were separated because

Title:The Chromatography Process of Expo Markers Abstract:This experiment is to uncover whether or not the Expo Markers are homogeneous or heterogeneous mixtures. The experiment will conduct filter paper being slightly submerged in a container of water and inspected for pigmentation changes. In the experiment the pigments will rise up the filter paper once exposed to the water (solvent). After the experiment‚ it concludes that the mixture is a homogeneous mixture due to the chemical

Mr. Sousa Organic Chemistry ACL 8 January 2015 Chromatography Chromatography is a physical method of separating substances based on their properties‚ by distributing their components between a mobile and stationary phase. Chromatography is useful for observing mixtures and solvents‚ since it can be used to determine the relative bond strength of various compounds‚ a substances phase‚ and it can also the identity of unknown substances. Chromatography allows for the separation of chemical mixtures
