chemical synthesis: extraction of crude caffeine pose little toxicity to human health and the environment.(1) Q2) Things not green: According to GCP# 5 i.e. Safer solvent and auxiliaries: In liquid-liquid extraction of caffeine‚ Dicholoromethane was used which is a hazardous chemical and have potential acute health effects(2). According to GCP#12 i.e. Inherent safer chemistry for accident prevention: The separatory funnels used in the experiment for liquid-liquid extraction was a dangerous procedure

Extracting DNA from Bananas In the Lab: Extracting DNA from Bananas‚ DNA was removed from bananas that had been blended with water in order to examine how DNA is seen from the naked eye. DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid‚ which is a nucleic acid that contains the sugar deoxyribose. DNA is made up of a series of monomers called nucleotides. Each nucleotide has three parts: a deoxyribose molecule‚ a phosphate group‚ and a nitrogenous base. In addition‚ there are four kinds of nitrogenous

few. DNA based techniques are a sub-discipline of forensic biology and are a crucial component in this field of work. DNA analysis began in the mid 1980’s and revolutionised the field of forensic science. With continual refinement of DNA analysis methods in crime laboratories over the years‚ small amounts of blood‚ saliva‚ skin cells and other biological material can now be used to develop leads and confirm or disprove an account of the crime. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is located in the cells of

DNA Cloning PCB3063L Section DNA cloning refers to the process of making multiple copies of a DNA fragment. For the past weeks we have conducted a set of experiments that allow us to clone a specific gene in drosophila. First we started by the process of DNA extraction‚ which allowed us to isolate the genomic DNA from D. Melanogaster. This process requires the use of lysis in other to extract the DNA and RNA. After extracting the DNA‚ we it is important to use

introduce the gene‚ usually a plasmid or bacteriophage‚ is called the vector. Ideal vectors have high rates of replication. Gene cloning is an important procedure in genetic engineering that allows us to produce a large amount of a useful gene product: for instance‚ insulin can be made for diabetic individuals by cloning genes from pancreatic cells.(Wikipedia 15/11/2014) Cloning vector: A cloning vector is a small piece of DNA‚ taken from a virus‚ a plasmid‚ or the cell of a higher organism‚ that can

Extract DNA from Anything Living |[pic] | |Introduction: [pic] Since DNA is the blueprint for life‚ everything living contains DNA. DNA isolation is one of the most basic and essential techniques in the study of DNA. The extraction of DNA from cells and its purification are of primary importance to the field of biotechnology and forensics. Extraction and purification of DNA are the first steps in the analysis and manipulation of DNA that allow scientists to detect genetic disorders‚ produce DNA fingerprints

The amount of pectin extracted reduces as the PH increased. This research work is been carried out in order to determine the process condition that will result in high yield of pectin and residual oil extracted from orange peels using the methanol pre-treatment to extract orange

Extraction of caffeine from tea bags ABSTRACT Caffeine extraction from the commercial tea leaves (Lipton Yellow Label Tea) that was done is multiple extraction. 4 tea bags were used in the experiment; tea leaves were weighed having 8.5333 grams. The leaves were boiled in a beaker with 150ml of water; the aqueous tea extract was transferred in a seperatory funnel mixed with DCM (20ml)‚ done thrice. The DCM layer was washed with 20ml 6M NaOH in the seperatory funnel; the organic layer was dried
