ADVANTAGES OF MOLECULES

THAT ENHANCES SEPARATION

  • Separation is an act or instance of separating compounds present in a substance.
  • Chromatography is an important biophysical technique that enables the separation, identification, and purification of the components of a mixture for qualitative and quantitative analysis.
  • Stationary phase: This phase is always composed of a “solid” phase or “a layer of a liquid adsorbed on the surface a solid support”.
  • Mobile phase: This phase is always composed of “liquid” or a “gaseous component.”
  • Separated molecules
  • The type of interaction between stationary phase, mobile phase, and substances contained in the mixture is the basic component effective on separation of molecules from each other. Stationary phase in chromatography, is a solid phase or a liquid phase coated on the surface of a solid phase. Mobile phase flowing over the stationary phase is a gaseous or liquid phase.
  • If mobile phase is liquid it is termed as liquid chromatography (LC), and if it is gas then it is called gas chromatography (GC).
  • Gas chromatography is applied for gases, and mixtures of volatile liquids, and solid material.

EXAMPLES OF MOLECULES USED

  • Silica resins
  • Alumina resins
  • Dextran
  • Agorose
  • Polyacrylamide
  • Cellulose
  • Anthraquinone dyes, and azo-dyes used as ligands Properties of molecules that enhances separation:

1. Polarity of molecules

  • For separations based on polarity, like is attracted to like and opposites may be repelled. That is if stationary phase used is polar {silica gel} the mobile phase should be non-polar {hexane} so as polar compound will be attracted to the stationary phase while non-polar compounds will be eluted with the mobile phase.

Examples of

chromatography

techniques based on

this property are:

  • Column chromatography
  • Paper chromatography

Examples of

chromatography

techniques based on

this property are:

  • Gas chromatography Properties of molecules that **enhances separation:
  1. Ionic charge of molecules.**
  • Molecules possessing the opposite charge as the resin will bind tightly to the resin, and molecules having the same charge as the resin will flow through the column and elute out first.
  • Example in ion- exchange chromatography. Properties of molecules that **enhances separation:
  1. Size of the molecules**

Properties of molecules that enhances separation:

5. Binding affinity of molecules.

  • If the molecule binds tightly to the enzyme and the unbound analytes will pass through in the mobile phase, and elute out of the column, leaving the substrate bound to the enzyme, which can then be detached from the stationary phase and eluted out of the column with an appropriate solvent.
  • This property is used in: affinity chromatography

Advantages

1. Helps in adsorption and solubility

  • This is a major molecular characteristic that aids separation of compounds in liquid-solid chromatography. The main principle used:
  • Differential affinities (strength of adhesion) of the various components of the analyte towards the stationary and mobile phase results in the differential separation of the components. Affinity in turn, is dictated by two properties of the molecule: ‘Adsorption’ and ‘Solubility’.

Advantages :

2. Determine retention factor (retardation factor) and polarity of separating compounds.
