Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a common method for concentrating proteins?
  • Step 1: Understand that proteins are often found in a solution with a lot of water (solvent).
  • Step 2: Know that concentrating proteins means reducing the amount of water while keeping the proteins.
  • Step 3: Learn about ultrafiltration, which is a technique that uses a special filter.
  • Step 4: Realize that this filter allows water and small molecules to pass through but traps larger proteins.
  • Step 5: Conclude that by using ultrafiltration, we can remove excess water and concentrate the proteins.
