Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography

Published January 1995

Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography, (FPLC), is a form of column chromatography used to separate or purify proteins from complex mixtures by using ion chromatography. It is very commonly used in biochemistry and enzymology. Columns used with an FPLC can separate macromolecules based on size, charge distribution, hydrophobicity, or biorecognition (as with affinity chromatography). (© Wikipedia, 2007)
