4 important questions on Analysis of Carbohydrates - Analytic separation techniques for carbohydrates - Chromatography of carbohydrates
Which eluent/gradient do you use for the different carbohydrates?
- Water elution + post column alkali addition
monomers - NaOH elution
Monomers and dimers - NaOH gradient
Mono-, di-, tri-, tetramer - NaAc gradient in e.g. 100mM NaOH
Higher neutral oligomers; acid oligomers
For what is reversed phase chromatography used?
- good separation of neutral and oligosaccharides, no retention of acidic oligosaccharides
- α/β can not be separation
- Separation based on polarity, polair groups will dilute wile apolar groups will stick to the column.
What is porous graphitized carbon (PGC) liquid chromatography?
- Retention mainly based on planarity (vlakheid) of oligosaccharides
- Separation strongly depends on structure of oligosaccharides
- Acidic oligosaccharide retention mainly based on net charge
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
Can you use the GC to determine the structure and composition of pectin?
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
