Product isolation increasingly becomes a major bottleneck in molecular biotechnology. This is especially the case for the sensitive proteineous substances (recombinant proteins, antibodies) and lately also DNA, usually produced in low concentration. The cu ...
Affinity precipitation was compared to affinity chromatography and batch adsorption as the final purification step in a protocol for the isolation of haemoglobin from human blood. Haptoglobin was the affinity ligand. The first steps on the process were rea ...
Oxygen reduction catalyzed by cobalt(II) (2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrin) [Co(OEP)] at soft interfaces is studied by voltammetry and biphasic reactions. When Co(OEP) is present in a solution of 1,2-dichloroethane in contact with an aqueous acidic s ...
The resistance mechanism of vetiver (Chrysopogon zizanioides) to atrazine was investigated to evaluate its potential for phytoremediation of environment contaminated with the herbicide. Plants known to metabolise atrazinerely on hydroxylation mediated by b ...
Mass spectrometry (MS) is an essential detection tool in bioanalytical chemistry owing to its exceptional selectivity and sensitivity, paired with rapid analyte identification and quantification. In this thesis, two classical MS and a newly developed ioniz ...
A finite element simulation has been used in order to study the partition chromatography process of one species between an aqueous mobile phase and an organic stationary phase located at the bottom of a rectangular microchannel. The transient model incorpo ...
Despite progress during the last decade, the behavior of charged macromolecules, polyelectrolytes, including their interactions is not yet completely understood. In particular, interactions with oppositely charged surfaces, which play a significant role in ...
Due to the growing interest on micro total analytical system (μTAS), fast analysis of small amount samples with high throughout is highly desired. Conventional separation techniques, such as Liquid Chromatography, show a great potential for miniaturisation ...
Chromatography is increasingly being used for large-scale preparative separation of precious biological components such as recombinant proteins and DNA. Several kinds of mathematical models are used to describe the liquid chromatography process. The aim of ...
