Biochemistry Virtual Lab I

Biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes in living organisms. It deals with the structures and functions of cellular components such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids and other biomolecules. The experiments included in Biochemistry Virtual Lab I are fundamental in nature, dealing with the identification and classification of various carbohydrates, acid-base titrations of amino acids, isolation of proteins from their natural sources, etc.

	Qualitative Analysis of Carbohydrates To analyse qualitatively the presence of different types of carbohydrates in an unknown sample based on specific reactions.
	Isoelectric Precipitation of Proteins: Casein from Milk To perform the isoelectric precipitation of casein present in milk.
	Quantitative Estimation of Amino Acids by Ninhydrin To estimate the amount of amino acid in the unknown sample.
	Separation of Amino Acids by Thin Layer Chromatography To separate and identify the amino acids in a mixture by thin layer chromatography
	Estimation of Saponification Value of Fats/Oils. To determine the saponification value of the oils
	Detection of Adulteration in Milk To detect various adulterants present in milk using specific biochemical tests.
	Qualitative Analysis of Amino Acid To identify the Amino Acid in the given solution.
	Estimation of Iodine Value of Fats and Oils To determine the iodine value of fats and oils and thus estimate the unsaturation of the fat /oil.
	Titration Curves of Aminoacids To study the acidic and basic properties of amino acids by plotting its titration curve and determine pKa values to recognize the unknown amino acid
	Estimation of blood glucose by Glucose oxidase method To estimate the blood glucose level by glucose oxidase method
