Â
The key constituents of cellular membranes are lipids and fatty acids. This kit involves the extraction of fatty acids and lipids as liposomes from a biological sample and their resolution by thin layer chromatography (TLC).
Â
Students will also understand the role of liposomes and their potential use of drug entrapment and delivery by viewing liposomes under a microscope.Â
Applications
- Role of membranes, lipids and fatty acids
- Isolate membranes from biological sample
