Biochemistry is the chemistry of biological systems. The practical component of biochemistry is aimed at developing your interest in and understanding modern biochemical and molecular biological experimentation. The techniques learnt in the biochemistry lab will be applicable to all life sciences. THE OBJECTIVES OF THE BIOCHEMISTRY LABORATORY INCLUDE: (1) Learning the theory behind the techniques and biochemical pathways (2) Learning the physical skills and techniques of modern experimental biochemistry

follow the International Baccalaureate program‚ mostly referred to as IB. Since the first year the IB program came to Greece by Moraitis School (1984) the number of students deciding to follow it and go study abroad has been increasing steadily. But not only has the number of students graduating from private high schools increased‚ during a very severe financial crisis‚ but the percentage of students going to study abroad through the IB program has remained stable. Despite the fact that the tuition fees

quantify bacteria through detection of their optical density (O.D.). After reaching a certain concentration in the fermentation batch‚ inclusion bodies (IBs) are extracted from these E coli by adding Bugbuster lysis solution and lysozyme. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) is carried out to test the existence of IBs. Afterward‚ IBs are dissolved in 8M urea and poured into IMAC chromatography in peptide purification step. Optimization of each step is tested throughout the experiment

Density Lab Partners: Betty Alcaraz Date: 9/10/13 Teacher: Wright Class: 7th period Introduction/Purpose: To determine the densities of unknown substances. Pre-Lab: 1. Which is heavier‚ a pound of feathers or a pound of lead? a. A pound of lead. 2. What is the density of a mineral if 427 g of the mineral occupy a volume of 35.0cm3? b. 12.2g/cm3 3. The water level in a graduated cylinder stands at 20.0 mL before and at 26.2 mL after a 16.74 g metal sample

Multimedia Graphic Bell Labs: A Hive of Invention But we idealize America’s present culture of innovation too much. In fact‚ our trailblazing digital firms may not be the hothouse environments for creativity we might think. I find myself arriving at these doubts after spending five years looking at the innovative process at Bell Labs‚ the onetime research and development organization of the country’s formerly monopolistic telephone company‚ AT&T. Why study Bell Labs? It offers a number of lessons

Jeanine Campa Biology 101 10/20/2010 Ecology-Interspecific Interactions Lab Intro: Ecology is the study of how organisms interact within their environment. Every species interacts with its surroundings‚ whether it’s within their populations‚ community‚ ecosystem‚ etc. In this lab‚ we will be comparing two different species and how they grow alone as well as together‚ in the same environment. More specifically‚ in this lab‚ we will be dealing with one of the most important ideas in ecology‚ the

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to determine the percent mass of Cu in a penny and see if the fabricator that makes the planchets for the government is using the correct amounts of Cu in the pennies. The composition of a standard penny is 97.5% Zn and 2.5% Cu. In the lab we will be using Beer’s Law (A=elc+b where A is solution absorbance‚ e is a constant called molar absorbency‚ l is the length in cm‚ and c is the concentration). Using Beer’s Law in this lab a colorimeter is used to find the

In each station there was a positive and a negative control. If the substance was the same as the negative control then it was negative. If the substance was the same as the positive control than the substance is positive. In the first lab we did the Paper Spot test‚ one would have had to apply the substance on a cardboard like paper. If it looked oily it was the biomolecule called lipid. The result of test one was it stayed the same‚ it did not turn oily and was clear. Next was the test
