Purification Flashcards
1
Q
Ultracentrifuge
A
Vital role in virology
efficiently sediment even smallest viruses
Used for concentration and purification of viruses
2
Q
Rate-zone centrifugation
A
Under centrifugal force, particles move at different rates depending on their mass
Ultracentrifugation method for purification and concentration of viruses. Separation of particles based on mass
3
Q
Isopycnic centrifugation
A
In isopycnic separation also called buoyant or equilibrium separation, particles are separated solely on basis of buoyant density.
4
Q
Other methods
A
Virus purification with membrane chromatography
