The document outlines an assignment for students to create fact sheets about the structure and function of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids, including their properties that allow for separation from mixtures. Students will then discuss techniques that can be used to separate each of the molecules and include evidence that would show the separation was successful. The final task is for students to write a literature review on agarose gel electrophoresis, how it works to separate molecules, and attach an interpretation of electrophoresis results to determine band sizes in a sample. The purpose is to introduce medical biochemistry and molecular separation techniques. Completion of the tasks provides evidence that students can demonstrate and explain separation techniques, interpret experimental data, and evaluate the techniques used.
