currently conducting a study trying to figure out the secondary metabolites from bacteria.
Question #1: does it make sense if our flow goes from: extraction > TLC > SEC > TLC > antibiotic susceptibility test > MS to identify the specific metabolite.
we lack time and would like to seek an alternative for SEC (it takes 7-14 days here in our partner lab).
Question #2: is Gravity Column Chromatography a decent alternative for SEC?
thank you for all your help 🙏
