What is the difference between the two salt precipitation methods: salting in and salting out? Group of answer choices Salting in relies on the isoelectric pH of the specific amino acid residue whereas salting out relies on the charge of the specific amino acid residue. Salting in relies on the charge of the specific amino acid residue whereas salting out relies on the isoelectric pH of the specific amino acid residue. Salting in decreases salt concentration thereby increasing the solubility of the protein whereas salting out increases the salt concentration to precipitate out the protein component. Salting in increases salt concentration thereby increasing the solubility of the protein whereas salting out decreases the salt concentration to precipitate out the protein component.
