Solution

The correct option is B the removal of PO34 ions
PO34 removal columns are designed to remove PO34 from a buffer solution. For example, the PO34 concentration can be reduced from 10mM to lower than 0.001mM. The principle of phosphate removal is based on interactions between PO34 and column resin. The PO34 stays on the column. Other buffer components including regular buffer salts and non-charged molecules such as sugar and glycerol do not bind to the resin, therefore they stay in the sample solution.
