Enriched stable isotopes of many elements have been widely used in many aspects and such isotopes have been primarily used as the tracer for agricultural and biochemical studies and the availability of the isotopically labeled compounds have been now extensively increasing. Chemical exchange separation of isotopes is based on the equilibrium fractionation of isotopes between two phases, ion exc...

Despite numerous studies, isolating pure preparations of extracellular vesicles (EVs) has proven challenging. Here, we compared ion-exchange chromatography (IEC) to the widely used sucrose density gradient (SDG) centrifugation method for the purification of EVs. EVs in bulk were isolated from pooled normal human amniotic fluid (AF) by differential centrifugation followed by IEC or sucrose densi...

In Part 1 of this series of papers (Partridge & Westall, 1949) it was shown that, whilst the baseexchange resin Zeo Karb 215 may be used with success for the separation of the neutral and acidic amino-acids, certain difficulties arise when the separation of basic substances is attempted. These difficulties were traced to the phenolic hydroxyl groups of the resin. Resins of the sulphonated pheno...

prostate-specific antigen (psa) was purified to homogeneity from human seminal plasma by ion-exchange chromatography on a cm-sephadex c-50 and by gel filtration on a sephacryl s-200 column. a single 33-kda protein band appeared in sds-page. high pressure liquid chromatography (hplc) of the purified protein produced a single peak, while isoelectric focusing demonstrated the presence of five diff...

calystegines were isolated from the root cultures of physalis divaricata, p. pubescens, p. philadelphia,and p. philadelphia (solanaceae). calystegines of p. divaricata were identified as calystegine a3, a5, b1 and b2, with concentrations of 6.99, 4.41, 8.52, and 14.7 ?g/g in fresh mass, respectively. root cultures of p.pubescens contain calystegine a3, b1 and b2, p. philadelphia only contains c...

A blocker of postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors was isolated from venom of the Eastern green mamba Dendroaspis angusticeps, by gel filtration, ion-exchange and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. The isolated component blocks neuromuscular transmission and responses to exogenously applied acetylcholine in isolated chick biventer cervices preparations. These results suggest t...

The purified Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is effectively used in passive immunization. There are various methods to isolate the IgG from serum, with its own advantages and disadvantages. In the current study, a comparative efficacy of the affinity chromatography using Protein A—Sepharose and ion exchange chromatography using DEAE Sephadex A50 was done with regard to yield and purity of IgG. Both meth...

Biological small-angle X-ray scattering (BioSAXS) is a powerful technique to determine the solution structure, particle size, shape and surface-to-volume ratio of macromolecules. However, a drawback is that the sample needs to be monodisperse. To ensure this, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) has been implemented on many BioSAXS beamlines. Here, the integration of ion-exchange chromatography ...
