“A Squirt of Stem Cell Gel Heals Brain Injuries” response What if we there is a gel that can increase the survival rate of those people who have a bad case of traumatic brain injuries? Based on this article by Sandeep Ravindran titled “A Squirt of Stem Cell Gel Heals Brain Injuries‚” it can be inferred in Sandeep’s thesis that it is just a matter of time. But in my opinion‚ this article does not provide concrete data that show how progressive and successful the treatment is‚ which makes this article

General Biology I‚ Fall 2011 Lab Report 3 Name: Luan Nguyen Date: 11-30-11 Lab: Gel Electrophoresis Purpose of this lab: In this laboratory investigation‚ students will analyze hypothetical human DNA using restriction endonucleases and gel electrophoresis to match samples from a crime scene to a suspect. Introduction: Your analysis unit will use gel electrophoresis to determine the guilty party. Electrophoresis is a technology in science that allows an individual to separate

restriction endonuclease‚ cuts DNA at a specific sequence pattern know as a restriction endonuclease recognition site. The presence or absence of certain recognition sites in a DNA sample generates variable lengths of DNA fragments‚ which are separated using gel electrophoresis. They are then hybridized with DNA probes that bind to a complementary DNA sequence in the sample. RFLP is one of the original applications of DNA analysis to forensic

1. Explain the difference between a “reserve” and a “resource”. What factors influence estimates of reserves and resources for commodities such as minerals or fossil fuels? Resources and reserves are similar in that the both benefit humanity. Resources are materials that can be used to satisfy human needs‚ or used as support. Reserves on the other hand are known deposits with the ability to extract the available material economically; the size of these reserves is not always known or defined

The second part of the experiment deals with Gel Electrophoresis. The samples are loaded into wells on an 1% agarose slab and subjected to electrical currents both positive and negative. Our current target here is DNA‚ therefore since nucleic acid as a negative charge‚ the bands will migrate toward the positive cathode. This process of migration is called sieving and smaller strands move faster than longer strands due to their ease in going through the gel. The objectives of the experiment include:

The black lung movement was a movement formed in the late 1960’s in which the miners fought for the health benefits to cover black lung disease. Black lung is directly caused by mining and working with coal. Mildred Mullins wrote this poem and hung it on the coffin of her dead husband in the Capital to display what was going on‚ “Compensation we are asking‚ While alive and still gasping; When life is o’er and hymns are sung‚ Then they’ll know we have black lung.( “Charleston Gazette” 15)” The miners

This prevents the samples from overflowing in the gel. Once this was completed the gel was moved so that the wells were on the negative electrode side. Then 300mL of Triacetate EDTA Buffer with a pH of 8.0 was then added to the electrophoresis apparatus. The wires for the electrophoresis apparatus were then connected to the voltage base; one wire on the negative and the other on the positive. Then cover the gel with the lid and turning on the base to 120 mV. The electrophoresis

(Author’s name) (Professor’s name) (Course details) (Date Abstract The aim of the lab was to separate and analyse analgesic drugs in a drug tablet. The method used to separate the components was Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) with silica adsorbent as the stationary phase and 0.5% glacial acetic as the mobile phase. In one plate‚ five known samples were used as the reference‚ that is: Aspirin; Caffeine; Ibuprofen; and Salicylamide. Aspirin and Salicylamide were the only samples that fluoresced
