exchange Chromatography Ion exchange chromatography is a process for separating proteins and other molecules in a solution based on differences in net charge. Ion Exchange Chromatography relies on charge-charge interactions between the proteins in your sample and the charges immobilized on the resin of your choice. Ion exchange chromatography can be subdivided into cation exchange chromatography‚ in which positively charged ions bind to a negatively charged resin; and anion exchange chromatography‚ in

Encyclopædia Britannica Paper chromatography is used to separate "dissolved chemical substances". An example of dissolved chemical substances could be the pigments that make up a specific color‚ for example in a marker. When a chromatography paper experiment is done on a black marker‚ the experiment tends to separate all the different pigments that make up the color. In this experiment‚ the substance investigated was a black water soluble Giotto marker pen. Paper chromatography has two phases‚ the

Chromatography lab Purpose: To separate food colorings into their component dyes using paper chromatography. Materials: Chromatography paper‚ Food coloring‚ Ruler‚ Pencil‚ Solvent solution‚ Test tubes‚ Test tube rack. Safety precaution: wear aprons‚ to make sure that you don’t get any of the alcohol on your clothes‚ and if you break a test tube you don’t get glass on you. Procedure: See-attached handout. Results: See chromatography with Audrey’s lab report.

Gabriel Alizaidy Liquid Chromatography September 14‚ 2009 Objective: To separate the components of unsweetened‚ grape flavored Kool-Aid. Procedure: Using two syringes‚ inject different concentrations of alcohol to extract red and blue dyes‚ and artificial flavoring. Data: Conclusion: Different dyes are shown when separated by different concentrations of isopropyl alcohol. Discussion of Theory: Chromatography‚ resolution and selectivity played major roles in making the experiment work

Abstract In this experiment paper chromatography was used in order to identify two unknown amino acids using eight known amino ones. The two unknown ones were identified by comparing the distance they travelled up the chromatography paper and their Rf values to the corresponding values of the other eight known amino acids. The unknown amino acids identified were Glycine and Methionine. Introduction Proteins in cells are important in many ways. There are different types of proteins such as

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

on research and development have also become broader each day. Controversies have also emerged and one of the most discussed topics has been directed towards synthetic versus natural colorants. Food pigments are classified based on its origin or source; natural or synthetic. Synthetic food pigments are those substances that are needed to be tested for toxicity and allergenicity before

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 idea that blueberries contained the most anthocyanidins‚ since it contained the most streaks on the chromatography paper. The main conclusion that can be

Problem How can you tell pigment separation by using Chromatography? Objective To prepare a chromatogram‚ separate pigments in a leaf and interpret the chromatogram. Hypothesis If I am to put a chromatography paper into a solvent‚ then it would separate the pigments depending on their Rf value. I think the pigments will separate in this order: Chlorophyll A‚ Chlorophyll B‚ Carotene‚ and Xanthophyll. Introduction Chlorophyll is the molecule that absorbs sunlight and uses its energy
