Introduction In the 1950s and 60s‚ when the two largest Communist States in the world ended their alliance‚ the world was shocked. Not only did the split between the Soviet Union and China create a divide in worldwide Communist leadership but also marked a turning point in the Cold War era. In his book‚ The Sino-Soviet Split‚ historian Lorenz M. Lüthi describes the collapse of the Sino-Soviet alliance to have been as significant to the time period as “the construction of the Berlin Wall‚ the Cuban

Conclusions of DH5α DNA transformation with red colonies resistance to ampicillin and the lacZ gene Introduction: In this experiment‚ a plasmid with a gene that has resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin and has lacZ is used to transfer the resistance into E. coli bacteria in red colonies. This same technique is used to give diabetics their insulin‚ and to give dwarfs growth hormones. The point of this lab is to give the groups an idea how DNA can be transformed

Power of DNA Analysis In the world of medicine and disease there is one disease that is as well known as it is deadly: Cancer. Many people understand the severity of cancer and how it attacks the immune system and ultimately can kill a person. The war on cancer was started in 1971 by President Nixon and this set of four decades worth of study and has lead to a large amount of information being learned about the cancer genome. A new strategy has recently surfaced and is gaining ground‚ DNA analysis

Project 2: DNA Analysis Due Dates: Checkpoint 1 1/7/14 10% Final Due Date 1/12/14 Students will write a program that uses arrays and files to analyze DNA sequences and determine if they represent proteins. Special thanks to Stuart Reges and Marty Stepp of UW for use of this assignment. I. Background Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a complex biochemical macromolecule that carries genetic information for cellular life forms and some viruses. DNA is also the mechanism through which genetic information

2011 What is Nano DNA Sequencing? DNA strand is threaded through a nano-pore and its sequence is identified from fluctuations in ionic current. (9) Trick is to figure out how to slow the strands movement through the opening so the base pairs A‚T‚C ‚& G can be read. (1) Example: graduate Brown student attached DNA strand to a bead using an electric field to drive the DNA to the pore. The DNA was too large for the pore‚ so‚ the bead was stuck in the hole with the attached DNA strand suspended

Abstract: The project is done to find out the impact of stock split on the stock market. In our project‚ we have made use of event study methodology to assess the accuracy of stock price reaction of 39 public listed Indian companies in National Stock Exchange (BSE) in the year 2006 and onwards. The abnormal returns (actual returns-returns from regression line) results were taken for 20 days before and after the announcement date to test whether the result is significant or not (Level of significance=5%)

Split-tensile Strength The splitting tests are well known indirect tests‚ were conducted as per IS 5816:1999 and used in the concrete tensile strength determination sometimes called split tensile strength of concrete. The size of cylinder is 300mm length with 150mm diameter or 200mm with 100mm diameter. The specimen were kept in water for curing for 3 days‚ 7 days and 21 days and on test day remove and allow the surface to dry. The test is performed out by placing a cylindrical specimen horizontally
