Analysis of purity?
Purified biomolecules have various applications
•Food industry
•Pharma industry
•Biotech industry
•Agriculture industry
•Cosmetic industry
•Health sector
Food industry
• Lactose intolerance : allergen
β-glucosidase enzyme
• Lactose free milk, milk products, ice cream
Role and significance of beta-glucosidases in the hydrolysis of cellulose for bioethanol production.
Food industry
• Gluten
Gluten is a mixture of proteins found in wheat and
related grains, including barley, rye, oat, and all
their species and hybrids.
• Classification of biomolecules
• Properties of biomolecules
• Types of chemical bonds
• Chemical basis of molecular
interactions
Chemical basis of molecular interactions
The functional groups shown here are found in many different biological
molecules, where “R” is the organic molecule.
How the functional groups of biomolecules are exploited for
separation and analysis?
DNA charged?
• H-bonds
• Ionic bonds/salt bridges
• Van der waal interactions
Types of chemical bonds
• Covalent bonds
– Based on electron sharing
– Strongest Bonds
– Eg: C – C bond,
Single bond
Bond length 1.54 Å
Bond energy ~348 kcal/mol
Delocalization of electrons
Types of chemical bonds
• Noncovalent bonds
– Not based on electron sharing
– Based on electric charges on atoms
– Attractive forces – readily broken and
reformed
– Differ in geometry, strength and specificity
– Affected by the presence of water
