Which of the following is not a technique for protein precipitation?

A
Trichloroacetic acid
B
Heat precipitation
C
Isoelectric point method
D
Titration with reducing sugar
High-Yield Explanation
Ans: D. Titration with reducing sugar(Ref Harper 30/e p26)Titration with reducing sugar is not used for protein precipitation.Protein precipitation:Widely used to concentrate proteins & purify them from various contaminants.Used for isolating specific protein in quantities sufficient for analysis.Requires multiple successive purification techniques.Classic approaches:Based on,Isoelectric precipitation - Differences in relative solubility of individual proteins as pH function.Precipitation with ethanol or acetone - Polarity.Salting out with ammonium sulfate.Paper chromatography including TLCD.
