Battle of the Sciences: Dental Vs. Biochemical Engineering Deciding what I want to do for the next 60 years of my life is a pretty big step‚ especially at the young age of eighteen. Making this decision involves choosing a school that is well suited for me‚ and picking a field to major in. Fortunately‚ I have half of the process figured out. I have chosen to attend Augustana University this upcoming fall (Go Vikings!)‚ but am still undecided as to what my major will be. I have always been fascinated

DNA REPLICATION WHAT IS DNA? DNA is a molecule that has a repeating chain of identical five-carbon sugars (polymers) linked together from head to tail. It is composed of four ring shaped organic bases (nucleotides) which are Adenine (A)‚ Guanine (G)‚ Cytosine (C) and Thymine (T). It has a double helix shape and contains the sugar component deoxyribose. THE PROCESS OF DNA REPLICATION How DNA replicates is quite a simple process. First‚ a DNA molecule is "unzipped". In other words‚ it

Isolation‚ Morphological‚ and Biochemical Characterization. A high-throughput screening of cartenoid-producing microorganisms resulted in 25 astaxanthin-producing bacterial strains from marine water samples that were collected from the Pacific coast of Japan (unpublished results). Among the isolates‚ a novel‚ highly selective astaxanthin-producing marine bacterium‚ labeled strain (N-5)‚ was isolated based on its ability to produce orange pigment on NA plate after 2 days of cultivation at 30 °C. Strain

their food. With the help of saliva produced by the salivary glands‚ which produce enzymes‚ food is able to be broken down further. This is also the place where ingestion takes place” “What are enzymes” “Enzymes are very efficient catalysts for biochemical reactions. In the mouth there’s an enzyme that will help your food undergo chemical digestion” “What is it” “It is amylase. Which help digest starch into smaller molecules. This enzyme will help break down the bread since it is filled of carbohydrates

DNA EXTRACTION In extracting chromatin from the cells of wheat germ there are seven steps to follow. The optimal cell to use would be the polyploidal eukaryotic. Eukaryotes have nucleus membrane-bound organelles‚ while prokaryotic does not. The polyploidal eukaryotic cell has DNA that is held in the nucleus while the prokaryote has DNA that floats freely around the cell. The DNA of eukaryotes is more complex and extensive than the other. Prokaryote is a bacterial cell that

Jimmy Wales and Michael Snow. | [Hide] [Help us with translations!] | DNA vaccine What is antisense technology? Antisense refers to opposing the normal order (“sense”) of the code in DNA. The DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) in genes directs cells to assemble the proteins which comprise living creatures. The order of bases in DNA corresponds to the ordering of amino acids to form the proteins. To produce protein‚ the DNA of the genes in cells is first transcribed into a very similar molecule called

Despite continuous improvements and modification to the technique‚ DNA microarrays are still no more than a glass microscope slide studded with individual immobile nucleotide fragments (1‚ 2). The fundamentals of DNA microarrays are set on complementary base-pairing (3)‚ and because the exact sequence and position

DNA profiling is a method of identifying an individual by unique characteristics of their DNA. A specific DNA pattern‚ called a profile‚ is obtained from an individual or a sample of tissue. This allows the comparison of the base sequence of two or more DNA samples to determine whether they are related. DNA profiling has many uses‚ in prevention of economic fraud‚ dietetic work‚ and classifying species‚ identifying bodies‚ forensic science‚ screening for disease‚ and investigating paternity.
