Q

LC-MS

A

•Molecules can be ionised via a number of different methods, meaning they are either positively or negatively charged
•Charged particles can be manipulated by the presence of an electric or magnetic field
• This effect is dependent on several parameters including the mass (m) and the charge(z) of the particle
•Mass spectrometers give information about
the molecular mass and more!

25
Q

Purification of Bioactive compounds

A
  • THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY (TLC)
  • These paration of a mixture will depend on the polarity of the compounds present. These paration takes place on a planar bed (TLC plate–stationary phase) as the mobile phase flows due to capillary forces.
26
Q

TLC Stationary phase

A

A variety of finely-divided particulate sorbents including silica-gel, cellulose powder, ion-exchange resins.

27
Q

TLC Mobile phase:

A

Single solvents or blend of two or more solvents having the appropriate overall polarity to achieve the required separation. They range from non-polar hydrocarbons to polar alcohols, water and acidic or basic solvents.

28
Q

TLC Solute detection

A

Spraying the surface of the thin layer plate with a chromogenic reagent, or viewing it under a UV lamp if the sorbent has been treated with a fluorescent indicator

Rf depends on polarity
Rf polar compound < Rf non-polar compound

30
Q

Purification using COLUMN CHROMATOGRAPHY

A

Components within a mixture are separated in a column based on each component’s affinity for the mobile phase.

•Stationary phase is held in a narrow tube through which the mobile phase is forced under pressure or under the effect of gravity

31
Q

Purification using ION EXCHANGE CHROMATOGRAPHY

A

Components (ions and polar molecules) within a mixture are separated in a column based on each component’s affinity to the ion exchanger.

•Stationary phase displays ionic functional groups (R-X) that interact with the analyteions of opposite charge.

  • Cation exchange chromatography –separate cations
  • Anion exchange chromatography –separate anions
32
Q

Identification using Fourier-Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy

A

IR radiation is passed through a sample where some of the infrared radiation is absorbed by the sample and some of it is passed through (transmitted).

  • The resulting spectrum represents the molecular absorption and transmission, creating a molecular fingerprint of the sample
  • Like a fingerprint no two unique molecular structures produce the same infrared spectrum
33
