    Attempted Fractionation of LB Lennox Medium via Reversed Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography
    Author(s): Wenfa Ng*

    Mass balance analysis is a highly useful tool for chemical engineering analysis of biological processes. Specifically, composition and amounts of inputs to a cell could be correlated with measurement of metabolic by-products and outputs for inferring metabolic fluxes flowing through specific cellular metabolic pathways. However, the composition of many common microbiological growth medium remains ill-defined with batch-to-batch variation. Thus, a need exists for developing methods for effective fractionation and separation of common growth medium. Using 5 g/L yeast extract, 10 g/L tryptone, and LB Lennox medium as model systems, this work attempted the fractionation of the three complex growth mixtures using C-18 Reversed Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RPHPLC). Results revealed no effective fractionation of the three mixtures. More importantly, experiment results indica.. View More»
