What is the most common approach to seperating complex mixtures of biological molecules
Chromatograohy
Why is chromatography useful
To study a dingle type of protein or other molecules
The extract contining the biomolecule we are looking at is called
mobile phase
What passes over the stationary phase
The mobile phase
How any forms of chromapathy are there? ad what are they?
Thin-layer and Column
What happens to the stationary phase in a column chromatography
its compased of small beads
What is chromatographic medium
small beads in a sraonary phase of a column chromatography
What is the driving force of seperation in the column chromatography
Interaction with the mobile phase with chromatographic
Interaction can be based on
- Net charge(ion exchange chromatography)
- Hydropobicity
- Molecular size
- Molecular relations like antigen-antiobody or enzyme-substrate
Anything smaller than the pores size will
enter the pores and travel through passages in the interior of the beads
Anything larger than the pores size
won’t be allowed to enter
What is bed volume
A space where beads are packed within a column
What is voild volume
The space between beads in a column bed
Seperation of the molecules is deteremined by what
ability to enter the pores in the chromatographic medium
Exclusion limit
Average pore diamter
