Odwalla Case Assignment In the Odwalla Case there are many stakeholders. There are the employees‚ the customers‚ the communities‚ the media‚ the suppliers‚ and the shareholders. The most important stakeholder in this case is the owners: founder‚ Greg Steltenpohl and CEO Stephen Williamson. I know they are the stakeholders because they not only have a direct economic transaction with the company but also‚ their actions affect the outcomes of the business. For example‚ they set up the values of the

Erica Osorio 5057497 Christian Roque and Rogerlio The Mechanisms by which E.Coli Cells Developed Immunities toward Ampicillin due to Plasmid and DNA Consumption U34 Abstract During the ampicillin experiment the ability to transform cells to make them adaptable to their environment was studied. The E.coli bacterial cell was used in order to observe how its DNA was able to change and develop immunity towards ampicillin. In order for this change to occur the use of several

Questions: 1. What should the company do regarding the following specific issues? a. Should the company recall all of its fresh apple juice‚ just those batches considered potentially contaminated‚ or not recall any of the product? I think Odwalla should recall all of its fresh apple juice in order to prevent consumers from having to worry about purchasing the product and getting contaminated. Until the problem is solved fresh apple juice should not be distributed. b. Should the company

Abstract:Conjugation is a natural occurring process that involves the transfer of DNA from one cell into another through a physical connection between the cells. In the following experiment‚ two strains of Escherichia coli bacterial cells (donor F’lac+strs and recipient F-lac-strr) underwent conjugation to produce a transconjugant strain (F’lac+strr). MAC plates and streptomycin were utilized to determine if conjugation had occurred. When plated‚ the donor colonies appeared red and the recipient

Student Lab Section 6 E. Coli Genetic Transformation with pGLO Plasmid Introduction: Genetic transformation is where one organism takes on a characteristic from another organism (Bacterial Transformation 2013). For this experiment we used the bacteria E. Coli to take in foreign jellyfish DNA which will allow it to change genetic material. This experiment determines the effects that the plasmid pGLO has in transferring the Green Florescent Protein found in a jellyfish into the bacteria. It

The Effect of Acetyltransferases on 2 different strains of E. coli Introduction Scientists have recently discovered that resistance to antibiotics may not be such a new thing. Evidence of bacteria samples in Canadian permafrost proposes that these resistances have been around for at least 30‚000 years (Luiggi 2011). In our required pre-lab reading‚ we learned tuberculosis is becoming increasingly drug-resistant‚ giving proof that bacteria can adapt to necessary changes in order to survive (Barry

price‚ and high degree of reduction have made glycerol a highly attractive and exploited carbon source for the production of fuels and reduced chemicals. Here we report the quantitative analysis of the fermentative metabolism of glycerol in Escherichia coli through the use of kinetic modeling and metabolic control analysis (MCA) to gain a better understanding of glycerol fermentation and identify key targets for genetic manipulation that could enhance product synthesis. The kinetics of glycerol fermentation

Material and methods Hosts ‚ plasmids and chemicals E. coli TOP10 strain was used for cloning and proliferation. E.coli BL21 DE3 was used as expression host cell. The pET 28a(+) plasmid was employed for gene expression. All chemicals were obtained from Merck Company (Germany). Codon optimization and gene synthesis Sequence encoding V-domain was obtained from Swiss-port‚ Uniprot KB and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) databases. 6x His-tag sequence was placed at N-terminal

Jennifer Hauss March 4‚ 2015 Bacterial Transformation Lab Report Introduction In this lab‚ the goal was to transform the bacteria e-coli to glow in the dark (or under a black light). Four plates were set up with agar in them for the bacteria to feed on and grow. Changes were then made to the bacteria. One plate was the control plate‚ having only the LB or agar for the bacteria and negative pGLO‚ which is the liquid not containing the plasmid. This is the plate that was compared with the three

Optimal Growth Conditions and Generation Time for E. coli Introduction The goals of these exercises were to determine the optimal growing condition and the generation time of E. coli. Materials and Methods Please refer to the lab manual for a complete list of materials. To determine the optimal growth condition for E. coli‚ we had to test the environmental factors that could affect the growth. We tested the relative growth of E. coli in the presence and in the absence of oxygen. The results
