This activity website, hosted by the National Health Museum Activities Exchange, explores protein purification using ion chromatography. Students will separate a positively charged lysozyme from a negatively charged albumin at a neutral pH using ion exchange chromatography. The site includes information for the teacher, instructions and follow-up questions for students, and a list of supplies.
