regulate or research the effects of chemicals on living organisms can cause many health risks to their citizens and the environment. One such instance in history is in the United States of America after World War II‚ where synthetic chemical pesticides used by the government and farmers grow crops. Rachel Carson researched on why these pesticides were unsafe for humans‚ animals and especially nature. Rachel Carson fought to bring global attention to the use of chemicals. As well as launching the awareness

electrophoresis buffer provided the correct pH and it gave ions to support the conductivity for the gel to run. The uncut λ DNA would be added to labeled tube as a control DNA. By comparing the conformations of uncut DNA with the cut DNA‚ the completed digestion could be verified. Molecular marker‚ which was used for molecular weight calculation‚ was stored in another sample tube. The prepared sample contained puC18 DNA would be run as the degrade DNA control

Introduction: With the execution of this experiment‚ we began to go deeper into the Cell and Molecular Biology course. The main focus of the experiment would be how the Restriction Endonucleases cleave the strands of DNA. For this experiment‚ pBR322 was the specimen to use. Restriction Endonucleases work by cleaving the sugar phosphate backbone of specific DNA sites. Restriction enzymes that have been isolated from bacteria have a defensive role. This idea is illustrated when an attacking foreign

Chemistry of Garlic - Key Compounds in Garlic Although garlic has been traditionally used for over 5‚000 years‚ most scientific significance has just been developed in the past 50 years. The key compounds in garlic and its preparations include the following phytochemicals. Sulfur-containing compounds Recently‚ researchers have been focusing on the benefits of a variety of sulfur-containing compounds in garlic instead of allicin. These are classified as oil- and water-soluble compounds. Oil-soluble

Titanium Titanium is a transition metal that was discovered in the year 1791 by an English pastor named William Gregor. The discovery was made when Gregor was by a Stream in the parish of Mannacan in Cornwall‚ England and found black magnetic sand. When Gregor analyzed this sand‚ he found out it was made up of the oxides of iron and an undefined and yet undiscovered metal.

FORMAL LAB REPORT INTRODUCTION John Dalton’s atomic theory states that elements combine in simple numerical ratios to form compounds. A compound‚ no matter how it is formed‚ always contains the same elements in the same proportion by weight. The law of mass conservation states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. In this experiment‚ the mass of the metal was not destroyed or created; the metal’s mass was simply changed into a compound form once the gas
