1. ISOLA ISOLATI TION ON OF OF CASE CASEIN IN FRO FROM M MILK MILK Aim:
To isolate casein from milk, i.e., milk protein from milk. Principle: Precipitation:
It is widely used in down stream process of biological products such as proteins. This unit operation serves to concentrate and fractionate the target product from various contaminants. Protein precipitate formation occurs in a stepwise process. The addition o f a precipitating agent and steady mixing destabilizes the protein solution. Mixing causes the precipitant and the target product to collide. The mechanism of precipitation is to alter the salvation potential of the solvent and thus lower the solubility of the solute by add ition of a reagent. Casein:
It is a predominant phospho protein that accounts for nearly 80% of protein in milk and an d cheese. When co-agulated with rennet, casein is sometimes called a paracasein. It consists of a fairly high number of proline peptides which do not interact. There are also no disulphide bridges. As a result it has relatively little secondary and tertiary structures and it cannot denature. It is hydrophobic making it poorly soluble in water. The isoelectric pH of casein is 4.6. The purified protein is water insoluble; insoluble in neutral salt solution. It is readily dispersible in dilute alkali and salt solution such as sodium acetate, sodium oxalate. Apparatus required:

2. PREPAR PREPARATIO ATION N OF OLEIC OLEIC ACID ACID FROM FROM OLIVE OLIVE OIL OIL Aim:
To prepare oleic acid from commercially available olive oil. Principle: Extraction:
Extraction with solvents is used as a method for separation of dissolved substances from solution. It can also be used for the separation of one constituent from a solid mixture as well as for the removal of undesired soluble impurities form mixtures. The common solvents used for extraction in the lab are diethyl ether, benzene, petroleum ether, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride. A good solvent for extraction should satisfy two important conditions, 1). the substance extracted should be highly soluble in the solvent. 2). after extraction the solvent should be easily separable from the solute. In the extraction of organic substance generally diethyl ether is used because organic substances are generally soluble in ether. Oleic acid:
Oleic acid is mono unsaturated fatty acid found in various animal and vegetable oils. It has the formula C18H34O2 [CH3 (CH2) CH=CH (CH2)7COOH]. Oleic acid also called as an octadecanoic acid. Its molecular weight is 231.38. The unsaturated form of this acid is stearic acid. Oleic acid makes up to 55 to 80% of olive oils, though there may be only 0.5 to 2.5% are actual free acid and 15 to 20% of grape seed oil. It is tasteless, colorless oily fluid at a temperature of 4 4.C. it is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohol, ethanol and ether. Apparatus required:

3. SYNT SYNTHE HESI SIS S OF ASP ASPIR IRIN IN Aim:
To synthesis aspirin from salicylic acid by acetylation method. Principle: Acetylation:
Acetylation (or in IUPAC nomenclature ethanoylation) describes a reaction that introduces an acetyl functional group into an organic compound. It is that, process of introducing a n acetyl group (resulting in an acetyl group) in to a compound specifically, the substitution of an acetyl group for an active hydrogen atom. A reaction involving the replacement of the hydrogen atom of a hydroxyl group with an acetyl group g roup (CH3CO) yields a specific ester, the acetate. COOH

Aspirin:
Aspirin or acetyl salicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relive minor aches and pains, as an antipyretic to reduce fever and as an anti inflammatory medication. It also has an antiplatelet or anti clotting effect and is used in long term, low doses to prevent heart attacks, strokes and blood clot formation in peop le at high risk for developing blood clots. The main undesirable side effects of aspirin are gastrointestinal ulcers and stomach bleeding and tinnitus, especially in higher doses. Aspirin was the first discovered member of class of drugs known as non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS). (NSAIDS). The synthesis of aspirin is classified classified as esterification reaction, where the alcohol group from the salicylic acid reacts acetyl anhydride to form an ester. Aspirin is commercially synthesized using a 2 step process. 1. Phenol treated with sodium base which generates sodium phenolate, which is then reacted with CO2 under high temperature and pressure to yield salicylate, which is acidified, yielding salicylic acid. This process is known as Kolbe- schmitt reaction.

4. HYDRO HYDROLY LYSIS SIS OF SUCR SUCROS OSE E Aim:
The objective of the experiment is to determine the condition suitable for hydrolysis of disaccharide to list the functional group and to prepare its derivatives. Principle:
Hydrolysis of sucrose is catalyzed by H+ ions. C12H22O11+H2O

H+ ions act as a catalyst. The reaction is therefore b imolecular, but it is found to be of o f ist order, which may be explained in the following way,
Water is in excess, its molar concentration concentration remains unchanged. Thus, the rate of reaction is determined only by sucrose concentration. Hence the reaction is of Ist order. Such reactions are referred as pseudo u nimolecular reaction. Procedure:
Prepare 100ml of 0.1M sucrose solution. Take 4 test tubes and name it 1,2,3,4 respectively. Fill the sample to 3/4th of each test tube. Add 5 drops of Conc.HCl to the test tube 2, 3 and 4.

3. Seliwan Seliwanoff’ off’ss test: test: ( Test for Fructos Fructose) e)
It is used to distinguish aldose and ketose in which ketose undergoes dehydration to give further derivatives which condense with resorcinol to form red color. One way to differentiate ketoses and aldoses is to look for the functional group attached to it. When a ketone is attached to it. When a ketone is attached to it, it is a ketose. However if an aldehyde is attached to it, it is an aldose. The dehydrated ketose then reacts with resorcinol to produce a deep cherry red color. Aldoses may react slightly to produce faint pink colour. Procedure and observation:

Lycopene is a bright red carotenoid pigment (of phytochemical) found in tomatoes and other red fruits, lycopene is the most common carotenoid in hu man body and it is one of the most potent ant-oxidant. The color of lycopene is due to its many conjugated carbon bonds. Each double bond may reduce the energy ene rgy required for electrons transition to higher energy states allowing the molecule to absorb visible light of progressively longer wavelength. Lycopene absorbs most of the visible spectrum. So it appears red. 11 BIOORG BIOORGANI ANIC C CHEM CHEMIST ISTRY RY LA LAB B MAN MANUAL UAL
