As shown by the picture‚ only the first drop of the DNA/EtBr mixture for the DNA standards fluoresce brightly under the UV light‚ while the other spots for both the DNA standards and the unknown DNA standards were all dimly fluoresce.

The two-population means‚ which were the independent samples‚ were subjected to t-test at 0.05 level of significance. The results showed that there is a significant difference in the level of acceptability of the Squash Ice cream and the commercial ice cream in terms of palatability‚ taste and texture. The following were the conclusions based on the results and findings of the study. 1. Results showed that
