This episode of MCAT Basics covers several separation and purification techniques you may see on the MCAT. We\u2019ll cover these techniques in three distinct categories: small molecules, proteins, and cells.\xa0

Within the small molecule category, we\u2019ll discuss extraction, crystallization and recrystallization, and chromatography (TLC and HPLC).

For proteins, we cover SDS-page, precipitation, soelectric focusing, and chromatography variations. Lastly, we\u2019ll explain, within the world of cells, centrifugation, flow cytometry, and microfluidics.\xa0
