Enzymes are biological catalysts. Purified enzymes are used widely both in research laboratories and in industry. Certain enzymes called proteases can hydrolyse proteins to amino acids. The amino acids can be separated and identified by chromatography. The diagram below shows a typical chromatogram.Question Image
