  2. Fractionation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractionation

    Fractionation makes it possible to isolate more than two components in a mixture in a single run. This property sets it apart from other separation techniques. Fractionation is widely employed in many branches of science and technology. Mixtures of liquids and gasses are separated by fractional distillation by difference

  3. Isolation (microbiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation_(microbiology)

    Bacteria extracted from soil sample. In order to isolate a microbe from a natural, mixed population of living microbes, as present in the environment, for example in water or soil flora, or from living beings with skin flora, oral flora or gut flora, one has to separate it from the mix.

  4. Solid-phase extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-phase_extraction

    SPE is in fact a method of chromatography, in the sense of having a mobile phase, carrying mixtures through a stationary phase, packed inside a column.The chromatographic process is harnessed to create a solid-liquid extractive technique—allowing separation of a mixture of components by taking advantage of large differences between the solid and liquid phase K eq, or equilibrium constant ...

  5. List of purification methods in chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_purification...

    In a laboratory setting, mixture of dissolved materials are typically fed using a solvent into a column packed with an appropriate adsorbent, and due to different affinities for solvent (moving phase) versus adsorbent (stationary phase) the components in the original mixture pass through the column in the moving phase at different rates, which ...

  6. Separation process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_process

    A separation process is a method that converts a mixture or a solution of chemical substances into two or more distinct product mixtures, [1] a scientific process of separating two or more substances in order to obtain purity. At least one product mixture from the separation is enriched in one or more of the source mixture's constituents.

  7. Streaking (microbiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaking_(microbiology)

    Bacteria exist in water, soil and food, on skin, and intestinal tract normal flora. The assortment of microbes that exist in the environment and on human bodies is enormous. The human body has billions of bacteria which creates the normal flora fighting against the invading pathogens. Bacteria frequently occur in mixed populations.

  8. Centrifugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugation

    The centrifugation method has a wide variety of industrial and laboratorial applications; not only is this process used to separate two miscible substances, but also to analyze the hydrodynamic properties of macromolecules. [4] It is one of the most important and commonly used research methods in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology.

  9. Decantation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decantation

    Decanting a liquid from a solid. Decantation is a process for the separation of mixtures of immiscible liquids or of a liquid and a solid mixture such as a suspension. [1] The layer closer to the top of the container—the less dense of the two liquids, or the liquid from which the precipitate or sediment has settled out—is poured off, leaving denser liquid or the solid behind.
