Methods for the separation of adrenaline, noradrenaline, hydroxytyramine, and dihydroxyphenylalanine (dopa) by employing starch columns (2, 3), paper chromatography (4-7), or countercurrent extraction (8) have limited usage either because of the length of time required for the fractionation or because of the small amounts of material that can be separated. A procedure is described below in whic...

As part of an ongoing study to identify selenium compounds with cancer chemopreventive activity, extracts of selenium-enriched samples were analyzed by HPLC-inductively coupled plasma (ICP)-MS. Ion-exchange, ion pair and derivatization methods for reversed-phase HPLC were considered and advantages and disadvantages for each compared. Anion exchange allows separation of selenite and selenate, bu...

Purification of extra-cellular cellulolytic enzymes from C e l l u l o mssp. strain 0, isolated from forest soil in the north of Iran , was studied by using gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. Two endo-glucanases (Endo-I & Endo-II) and one exo-glucanase (Exo-I) were purified to hornogenity . The purified enzymes had molecular weights of about 39.000,70.000 and 90.000 daltons for ...

As IgM and IgA-enriched preparations are needed to complete the immunotherapeutic spectrum, a simple procedure is described for the preparation of IgM and IgA enriched immunoglobulins. Fraction III which was prepared by cold ethanol fractionation was treated by octanoic acid followed by ethanol precipitation and ion-exchange chromatography using Sephadex DEAE A-50 and 0.1 M tris-D.35M NaCI ...

Here we demonstrate that separation of proteolytic peptides, having the same net charge and one basic residue, is affected by their specific orientation toward the stationary phase in ion-exchange chromatography. In electrostatic repulsion-hydrophilic interaction chromatography (ERLIC) with an anion-exchange material, the C-terminus of the peptides is, on average, oriented toward the stationary...

Abstract—The primary objective of this work was to study the effect of resin chemistry, pH and molarity of binding and elution buffer on aggregate removal using Cation Exchange Chromatography and find the optimum conditions which can give efficient aggregate removal with minimum loss of yield. Four different resins were used for carrying out the experiments: Fractogel EMD SO3(S), Fractogel EMD ...

Moore and Stein (1) have reviewed the work of Boardman and Partridge and others on problems encountered in attempting the chromatography of nonbasic proteins on Amberlite IRC-50 by elution analysis with the use of buffers of constant composition for the elution. Boardman and Partridge (2) suggested that the difficulty in achieving reversible equilibrium binding was due to hydrogen bonding betwe...

BACKGROUND The polyacrylic resin Amberlite IRA-67 is a promising adsorbent for lactic acid extraction from aqueous solution, but little systematic research has been devoted to the separation efficiency of lactic acid under different operating conditions. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS In this paper, we investigated the effects of temperature, resin dose and lactic acid loading concentration o...

Although the existence of the pancreatic hyperglycemic factor was postulated by Kimball and Murlin (1) in 1923, it was only recently that glucagon was isolated in crystalline form by Staub et al. (2). Glucagon was shown to be a basic polypeptide at that time. Such a peptide would be expected to yield successfully to chromatography on the carboxylic ion exchange resin Amberlite IRC-50, except fo...
