OBJECTIVE The purpose of this lab was to troubleshoot causes related to PCR components and develop an experiment that would test if the Taq amount is suitable for the PCR reaction to run correctly. INTRODUCTION Thermus aquaticus (Taq) DNA Polymerase is a bacterium that lives in thermophilic conditions and has been identified as an enzyme able to withstand the protein-denaturing conditions (high temperature) required during PCR (Noronha & Mullins‚ 1992). Why might you not be getting any bands on your

Cross training activities such as swimming and cycling could also be used in the program to break the repletion of just running. 2. The training principle of specificity states that effective training should replicate the actions‚ muscles‚ energy systems and intensity of the activity you are training for. The Bridge to Brisbane training program did consider this principle as 5 out of 7 days a week‚ the training
