Size exclusion chromatography does not require pores

Size exclusion chromatography does not require pores.

Separation of macromolecules on the basis of their molecular weight by size exclusion chromatography has long been considered to be caused by the geometry-dependent partition of macromolecules between a continuous phase and the porous interior of a gel or cross-linked bead. The volume of a pore accessible to a solute is limited by its relative dimensions, so larger molecules will have access to...

Size Exclusion Chromatography of Polymers

In the characterization of polymers, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) has become a standard technique for determining molar mass averages andmolar mass distributions (MMD) of polymers. The principle of SEC is easily understood: owing to limited accessability of the pore volume within the particles of the column packing, polymer molecules are separated according to their hydrodynamic volumes,...

Size-exclusion chromatography using core-shell particles.

Size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) is an indispensable technique for the separation of high-molecular-weight analytes and for determining molar-mass distributions. The potential application of SEC as second-dimension separation in comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography demands very short analysis times. Liquid chromatography benefits from the advent of highly efficient core-shell ...

A Deadenylase Assay by Size-Exclusion Chromatography

The shortening of the 3'-end poly(A) tail, also called deadenylation, is crucial to the regulation of mRNA processing, transportation, translation and degradation. The deadenylation process is achieved by deadenylases, which specifically catalyze the removal of the poly(A) tail at the 3'-end of eukaryotic mRNAs and release 5'-AMP as the product. To achieve their physiological functions, all dea...
