A mixture of amino acids that do not separate sufficiently when a single technique is used can often be separated by two-dimensional chromatography. In this technique, the mixture of amino acids is applied to a piece of filter paper and separated by chromatographic techniques. The paper is then rotated 90°, and the amino acids are further separated by electrophoresis, producing a type of chromatogram called a fingerprint. Identify the spots in the fingerprint obtained from a mixture of Ser, Glu, Leu, His, Met, and Thr.
