LAB REPORT! EXPERIMENT#5‚6! MANPREET KAUR KHAIRA! LAB PARTNER: VIAN RAIES! The purpose of this lab exercise was to perform the bromination of (E)-1‚2-diphenylethene (trans-stilbene) by addition reaction in which bromine was added across the double bond to yield a vicinal dibromide. The next step was to perform a double elimination reaction by product gained to synthesize an alkyne‚ that is‚ 1‚2-diphenylacetylene. The two major techniques used in this lab were TLC analysis and UV-vis spectroscopy

Enzymes Lab Report Inroduction In this lab we explore an enzymes activity and how it can be affected by changes to its environment. An enzyme is a protein and is a catalyst to chemical reactions. It helps accelerate reactions by lowering the activation energy‚ which is needed for reactions in cells to progress at a higher rate. Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy needed for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding products from a given set of reactants. (Unit 7: Enzymes lab) Products

Lab Report Microscopic Study: Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Lab Report Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Introduction: The flow of water across a permeable membrane is called osmosis‚ and during this process‚ water moves down its concentration gradient. A solution surrounding a cell is hypertonic if it contains more solute particles than the inside of the cell‚ and the water will move out of the cell into the surrounding hypertonic solution by osmosis. If the solution

The purpose of the lab was to measure the effectiveness of antacids at neutralizing excess stomach acid. A neutralization reaction is when an acid and a base react to form water and salt. To illustrate‚ H+ hydrogen ions from the acid react with the hydroxide ions OH- from the base. Antacids are taken to relieve heartburn or indigestion caused by excess stomach acid. For instance‚ antacids such as alka-seltzers contain baking soda which is highly reactive with acids‚ settling the discomfort of indigestion

In Exercise 2‚ we calibrated the Power Lab program to the blood pressure cuff. In Exercise 3‚ we estimated the systolic pressure in the upper arm using Korotkoff sounds and by finding the pressure corresponding to when blood flow began in the brachial artery. In Exercises 4 and 5‚ we estimated

can survive in extreme environments. Halobacteria are also useful by being a good organism to perform DNA transcription‚ translation‚ and transformation on (Kramer‚ 2006). There are two different types of Halobacteria that are being observed in this lab. The first is NRC-1‚ which is also called the wild type strain. Although the pigmentation of the Halobacteria is caused by the production of the membrane protein‚ bacteriorhodopsin‚ which is a red‚ the wild type strain is pink in color. This pink color

osmotic pressure of the blood. This function is carried out by the kidneys‚ that will filter blood and produces urine through three stages: ultrafiltration‚ reabsorption and secretion. The end product of the process will produce urine‚ which contains mainly water and a range of substances that such as inorganic salts‚ organic compounds and some metabolites. The quantity and composition of the urine reflects various biochemical processes that occur in the body. Thus‚ the composition of the urine of an individual

Antibiotic Lab Report By: Sierra Toll Hour: 6 Title: The effects of antibiotics on the growth of Escherichia Coli Problem: How do antibiotics affect the growth of E coli? Hypothesis: If Penicillin is applied to the bacteria‚ then the zone of inhibition will be larger. Background: The purpose of this lab was to see how effective a certain antibiotic is to kill E coli. The lab tested three antibiotics‚ Penicillin‚ Erythromycin‚ and Neomycin. The zone of inhibition‚ which is the amount of space

Chelex Extraction and PCR Amplification of the Amelogenin Gene For The Purpose of Gender Determination. Abstract The amelogenin gene is a protein involved in the development of the enamel matrix. It is located on both the X and Y chromosomes in humans and can be used as a way to distinguish between males and females. Gender determination of a human has important applications in forensic science‚ prenatal diagnosis‚ etc. This can be done by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) followed by gel electrophoresis
