Li‚ 1 2-16-13 Solar Energy: The Energy of the Future Our Earth’s resorvoir of resources seem to be limitless‚ but with the exponential growth of the human population; the need for efficient alternative energy sources is becoming urgent. Therefore‚ research companies and individuals are focusing on creating new energy systems. Fossil fuels are are depleting and becoming more difficult to obtain. The earth will face an energy crisis in the near future if humans are not careful with their consumption

Agarose is used widely in gel electrophoresis because it gels at a lower temperature‚ does not contain the inhibitors of virus growth frequently present in agar‚ and has more uniform

Gel Electrophoresis Adventure Intro The final goal of this lab was to successfully measure the size of different samples of DNA by placing each sample into a well in agarose gel and running a current through a charged chamber. The DNA samples will move through the gel towards the positive charge. Ideally‚ the DNA will move and create and sequence of smallest to largest. This lab exposes us to DNA technology. Backround Gel electrophoresis is used to separate macromolecules like DNA or RNA by size or

Title: Principles and Practice of Agarose Gel Electrophorsis Objectives: To detect the size ‚ shape and charge of the each dye solution. Methods: Casting the Agarose Gel In this experiment .8% solution was used. By using a 250ml flask the buffer solution was prepared. Using the equation to make enough solution for the intire lab class the equation had to be multiplyed by five. The contents of this equation were added to the 250ml flask and swirled to evenly distrubute it contents

From our sample of the gel electrophoresis‚ both Madi and me are homozygous positive (+/+) for the Alu gene. This can be determined by looking at the ladder and comparing our sample to it‚ to find out if we are homozygous or heterozygous. Discussion For this lab‚ DNA from our cheek cells were separated through PCR‚ and singled out through gel electrophoresis

How does the process of gel electrophoresis separate DNA fragments? It uses an electric current to separate different-sized molecules in a porous‚ sponge-like matrix. 2. What is the purpose of the agarose gel? It is used to separate DNA molecules that range in different lengths. 3. What is the purpose of adding blue “tracking” dye to the DNA samples? The blue tracking dye is added to help load the samples easily and helps able to see the DNA moving through the gel. 4. Explain why DNA has an

PROBLEMS SCIENTIST FACE IN PREVENTING THE REOCCURENCE OFMALIGNANT MELANOMA. Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer. Whether it’s called malignant melanoma or simply melanoma‚ this cancer can metastasize (spread) rapidly. With early detection and proper treatment‚ melanoma has a high cure rate. Early detection and treatment are possible because melanoma typically begins on the surface of the skin. It develops when melanocytes are damaged‚ which causes these cells to grow uncontrollably. As

Which is the more viable energy source for Australia’s energy and needs‚ Wind or Solar? This is a common debatable topic within the Federal Government of Australia. Debating which specific form of energy should be invested heavily in‚ in hope that carbon emissions and the use of coal will be reduced in the future (Clean Line‚ 2013). It is believed that the dominance of coal will be challenged by renewable energy e.g. Wind and Solar. Renewable energy is fast‚ clean‚ affordable‚ efficient‚ reliable
