A protein is being separated on a chromatography column. The protein has been found to obey the Langmuir isotherm, with Stot= 300 µg/mL and Keq= 10 mL/mg. The concentration of the protein in the feed (3 liters) to the column is 2 mg/mL. The column flow rate is 2.0 liters/min. The column is 50 cm in diameter and 100 cm long. The void fraction of the chromatography bed is 0.35. Determine (a) the time for the protein shock front to exit the column, and (b) the time when the concentration of the protein in the diffuse wave is 0.01 mg/mL at the exit of the column.

A protein retained on an affinity chromatography column is usually eluted off the column by (circle the correct answer) A. increasing the salt concentration in the buffer B. changing the temperature of the elution buffer. C. allowing the retained protein to naturally come off the column after the non-specifically bound proteins have first passed through the resin. D. adding the protein's free ligand.

elect all statements below that apply to Column Chromatography. Column chromatography can be used to purify small (< 0.1 g) sample mixtures. The compound in a mixture with the lowest Rf value will exit the column first. Column chromatography is often used to purify large (10 g) sample mixtures. Column chromatography is used mainly as an analytical tool.
