Methods for studying cells in the lab Centrifugation A centrifuge is a device for separating particles from a solution according to their size‚ shape‚ density‚ viscosity of the medium and rotor speed. Centrifugation can be used to separate cells from one culture or to isolate an organelle from the rest of the cell. The process relies on speed; the faster and longer the particle is centrifuged‚ the smaller the particles are that will be separated. Separation occurs by causing the larger particles

Introduction The current method of cell expansion using T25 flasks for human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have been proven to be extremely time and space consuming‚ labour intensive and difficult for scale-up (Minimal of 200 T25 flasks needed). It is estimated 2.8x108 - 5.6x108 undifferentiated hESCs are required by the end of the expansion stage for the process to work‚ as at least 5x107 cells of well differentiated post-mitotic Nrl+/Crx+ precursors are needed for transplant (Maclaren et al‚ 2006)

1. Eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus‚ bound by a double membrane. Prokaryotic cells have no nucleus. The purpose of the nucleus is to sequester the DNA-related functions of the big eukaryotic cell into a smaller chamber‚ for the purpose of increased efficiency. This function is unnecessary for the prokaryotic cell‚ because its much smaller size means that all materials within the cell are relatively close together. Of course‚ prokaryotic cells do have DNA and DNA functions. Biologists describe

Aim: The aim of this experiment is to investigate the movement of water into and out of plant cells by osmosis. The cells chosen for study will be taken from potato tubes as they provide a ready supply of homogeneous material. I did the investigation in two parts‚ the first part of my investigation was my preliminary investigation and then I did my official investigation. In both of my investigations there are several similarities‚ such as fair testing‚ variables‚ key variables‚ reliability

3/21/2012 Cell Growth & Division Essay Kate Nogler Mr.Lapointe When a living thing grows‚ it produces more cells through a process called cell division. Cell division is necessary for any growing eukaryotic cell structure. Cells divide through a system called the cell cycle. It is a complicated and crucial part of anatomy! Before a cell divides‚ it must grow. However‚ a cell can’t grow forever. Once a cell gets too big‚ it divides itself into two daughter cells. A cell divides because

Explain how the advance in technology allowed the progressive accumulation of knowledge and understanding of the cell theory The technological advancements‚ in the scientific field‚ have opened opportunities for scientists to accumulate knowledge and understanding of the cell theory and have thus provided justification to the living organisms that exist. Notably‚ prior to the proposal of the cell theory‚ limited knowledge and understanding of what humans comprised of was evident and thus the theory of

Describe the key structures and functions of a eukaryotic and prokaryotic cell. Eukaryotic Cell (1) There are many organelles in the eukaryotic cell micrograph above. Some of these organelles are displayed in the prokaryotic micrograph and so‚ I have described the shared organelles in the prokaryotic micrograph section. Mitochondria The mitochondria cells break down nutrients which then creates energy. They act like a digestive system. This process is called cellular respiration. The

of the cell. This is where DNA is contained. This is like the town hall or the mayor’s office because it is the control center of a town. The nucleus uses DNA like a city uses blueprints to direct the production of protein. Nucleolus- The nucleolus is where ribosome is made and is rich in RNA content. It is located inside the nucleus. A mayor is like this because the mayor makes everything in the town happen. He also works from the town hall‚ or works from the nucleus. Nuclear Membrane- The
