Chromatography Types for Biochemical Investigation

The following points highlight the four main types of chromatography for biochemical investigation. The types are: 1. Ion-Exchange Chromatography 2. Partition Chromatography 3. Gel Chromatography 4. Gas Liquid Chromatography (GLC). Type # 1. Ion-Exchange Chromatography: (i) Ion-exchange resins are nothing but cross-linked polymers. The polymers must have negligible solubility but be porous enough for the ions to diffuse freely through [...]

Energy Capture in Respiratory Chain| Biologic Oxidation

In this article we will discuss about the Energy Capture in Respiratory Chain in Mitochondria. 1. When substrates are oxidized through an NAD-linked dehydrogenase, 3 mol inor­ganic phosphate are incorporated into 3 mol of ADP to form 3 mol of ATP per half mol of O2 (1/2 O2) consumed, i.e. the P; O ratio = 3. 2. When a substrate [...]

Collagen: Synthesis and Inherited Defects | Muscle Tissue

The below mentioned article provides a short note on Collagen:- 1. Introduction to Collagen 2. Synthesis of Collagen 3. Inherited Defects. Introduction to Collagen: 1. Collagen is the major macromolecule of connective tissues and it is the most com­mon protein in the animal kingdom. 2. In mammalian tissues, there are five dis­tinct types of collagen and they exist as a [...]
