placed in an electrophoresis machine. An electric current is run through the machine and the different sized molecules form bands on the gel matrix. In visualization‚ the gel is dyed so the results become present. This is used in modern crime labs‚ figuring out DNA‚ which plays a key role in many criminal trials. The researcher completed this experiment to figure out who committed the murder using gel electrophoresis. The researcher followed five steps in this experiment; First was placing the gel in

DNA Lab Report SungYong Jang What is DNA? What do the letters stand for? What is it composed of? Where is it found? What is it shaped like? Answer in full sentences. It is the genetic material that can be passed on from parent to offspring DNA --> Deoxyribonucleic acid It composed of Deoxyribose (5 carbon sugar)‚ a phosphate and a Nitrogonous base (the 4 N-bases are Guanine‚ Cytosine‚ Adenine and Thymine) It is a double helix (looks like

Conclusions of DH5α DNA transformation with red colonies resistance to ampicillin and the lacZ gene Introduction: In this experiment‚ a plasmid with a gene that has resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin and has lacZ is used to transfer the resistance into E. coli bacteria in red colonies. This same technique is used to give diabetics their insulin‚ and to give dwarfs growth hormones. The point of this lab is to give the groups an idea how DNA can be transformed

3.2.4 Genomic DNA extraction of the root tips After the treatment of the onion bulbs with lake water sample at different period of time‚ the DNA from the root tips will be ready to be extracted and observed. First of all‚ the genomic of the Allium cepa will be easily done by the already available Uneasy® Plant Mini kit (Qiagen‚ Germany) in the laboratory. All of the procedures can be performed by referring to the manual provided by the kit. A very small amount of root tips that weigh 100 mg will

Title Application of DNA Barcodes to Identify Various Plant Species Abstract In this experiment we applied barcodes to plants in order to identify what species they are classified under. We also compared the DNA sequences of different plant species using the ribulose-biphosphate carboxylase gene (rbcL). We took samples from a plant called Chard and performed PCR‚ DNA amplification and quantification and sequenced the DNA. During the experiment‚ we hypothesized that this year’s “nonspinach”

Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to perform a liquid-liquid extraction method to extract the caffeine from the tea bags that were provided‚ and then recrystallize the caffeine. The solvents used in the experiment were an aqueous sodium carbonate and dichloromethane (DCM). Anhydrous calcium chloride pellets were used to dry the solution and emulsion layer and the DCM was then decanted. After washing the anhydrous calcium chloride pellets with more DCM‚ the solvent was evaporated‚ leaving

Fingerprinting Powders Prac Write Up- Amy Clark Aim: To discover which powder works best to take fingerprints on a glass surface. Hypothesis: The cocoa will work best because we’ve seen it used in lots of tutorials. Theory: There are 3 main types of fingerprints. Loops are the most common. They start on one side of the finger and come back around to finish on that side of the finger as well. Around 70% of fingerprints are loops of some type. Whorls are the next most common with around 25% of fingerprints

We wanted to extract‚ see and analyze DNA from a single strawberry( 12.11 g). The long‚ thick fibers of DNA store the information for the functioning of the chemistry of life. DNA is present in every cell of plants and animals. The DNA found in strawberry cells can be extracted using common‚ everyday materials. To start the procedure we needed the following supplies; one strawberry‚ one plastic cup‚ 10 ml of Cell Lysis Buffer (10% detergent‚ 1% NaCl)‚ one plastic zip-lock bag‚ one coffee filter‚
