Study Notes
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
- Solid-phase is not a type of HPLC column.
- HPLC columns can be classified into three types: Reverse-phase, Normal-phase, and Size-exclusion.
- The stationary phase in HPLC separates sample components based on interactions.
HPLC Detectors
- The Refractive Index Detector is commonly used in HPLC for compounds that absorb UV or visible light.
- Other types of detectors used in HPLC include the Diode Array Detector, Mass Spectrometer, and Flame Ionization Detector.
Gel Electrophoresis
- The primary purpose of gel electrophoresis in molecular biology is to separate DNA fragments by size.
- Agarose gel is the most commonly used gel for DNA separation.
- Other applications of gel electrophoresis do not include amplifying DNA sequences, sequencing DNA, or synthesizing RNA.
