Biological chemistry 1B Experiment 1: Thin layer chromatography [TLC] Aim The aim of this experiment is to apply the technique of TLC to first separate out a mixture of coloured dyes and then to do the same for selected range of amino acids. Procedure 2 MMs of each different colour were collected into separate beakers. Approximately 5 drops of water is added to each of the beakers containing the MMs and the tablets were stirred until

Restriction Endonuclease Digestion of DNA from E. coli cells and Analysis by Agarose Gel Electrophoresis Introduction The main goals of this experiment are testing an alternative procedure called “boiling lysis”‚ evaluating the quality of the purified plasmid for restriction digests‚ and identifying the mislabeled plasmid. The plasmid DNA from a carrier E. coli strain was purified by the boiling lysis. In the boiling lysis method‚ the bacterial cells were given momentary heat treatment

Basic Biochemistry Webquest (2013) Basic Chemistry Part 1: Why Do Atoms React? Google Search 1. What is an atom? An atom is the basic unit of a chemical element. 2. What is an element? An element is a substance that is made entirely from one type of atom. 3. What makes an atom unstable (reactive)? The binding energy not being strong enough makes an atom unstable (reactive). 4. Why do atoms react with other atoms? Atoms react with other atoms to gain or lose electrons to fill their outer

Biochemistry and Thought Production A humans cognition and thought processes are based on biochemical reactions within the human body. Biochemistry is the function of chemicals and processes occurring within a living being. It can be used in many ways to explain how our thoughts are produced. Through the functionalist perspective mental states and brain states are combined to form a matrix of thought. Functionalists argue that environmental inputs and mental states play a pivotal role
