Abstract
Proteins, peptides, DNA, RNA, lipids, and organic cofactors have various characteristics such as electric charge, molecular weight, hydrophobicity, and surface relief. Purification is usually achieved by using methods that separate the biomolecules according to their differences in these physical characteristics, such as ion exchange (Sect. 2.1), gel filtration (Sect. 2.2), and affinity chromatography (Sect. 2.3).
