How do you separate amino acids from fatty acids?

One common method to separate amino acids from fatty acids is through chromatography. Amino acids are more polar and can be separated based on their different affinities for the stationary phase, while fatty acids can be eluted separately due to their differing solubilities. Another method could involve precipitation using different solvents where amino acids and fatty acids can be separated based on their solubilities in the respective solvents.

What are chains of carbon and hydrogen with a carboxyl at one end?

These are called fatty acids. They are organic molecules made up of a hydrocarbon chain with a carboxyl group at one end. Fatty acids are essential components of lipids and can vary in length and saturation.


Is fatty acids a disaccharide?

No, fatty acids are not disaccharides. Fatty acids are long hydrocarbon chains with a carboxylic acid group at one end. Disaccharides are carbohydrates composed of two monosaccharide units linked together.
