The objective of these labs were to use sophisticated techniques to produce double-stranded RNA that was incubated with live Drosophila cells to inhibit the expression of our two genes of interest. The overall process of the four labs was to isolate and amplify DNA using the polymerase chain reaction with primers that contained gene-specific sequences to Thread or Dynamin-related protein 1 (drp-1)‚ along with T7 promoter site sequences. The amplified DNA was purified and both strands of the DNA

Formal paper number 1 Professor Tolentino Maria Oyervide EXPERIMENT #4 IONIC AND COVALENT COMPOUNDS Abstract: This experiment was divided in four steps to find the electrical conductivity of covalent and ionic solutions. There were four unknown solutes A‚ B and C. Each had a specific weight and was dissolved in a certain amount of solute to form either the covalent or ionic solution. Covalent compounds are made up of molecules which are electrically neutral. Ionic compounds are composed

Synthesis of Aspirin and Oil of Wintergreen INTRODUCTION: Synthesis and use of organic compounds is an extremely important area of modern chemistry. Approximately half of all chemists work with organic chemicals. In everyday life‚ many if not most of the chemicals you come in contact with are organic chemicals. Examples include drugs‚ synthetic fabrics‚ paints‚ plastics‚ etc. Synthesis of Aspirin and Methyl Salicylate. The two compounds we will be preparing‚ aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) and oil

Title Page Density Formal Lab Report Name Professors Name Date Purpose/Objective: Determine density of a product for a plastic manufacturing facility. Provide quality control by making sure the physical properties are within design specifications. Density is defined as the ratio of an object’s mass to its volume‚ measured by dividing mass by volume (density = mass/volume). This was accomplished using two different experimental methods‚ displacement and floatation. The theory is that

ESTIMATION OF 1-4‚ DIOXANE IN SHAMPOOS/ CONDITIONERS/HAIR CREAMS/ SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE BY HEAD SPACE GAS CHROMATOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUE INTRODUCTION 1-4‚ DIOXANE 1‚4-Dioxane is a heterocyclic organic compound‚ classified as an ether. It is a colorless liquid with a faint sweet odor similar to that of diethyl ether. The compound is often called simply Dioxane because the other Dioxane isomers (1‚2- and 1‚3-) are rarely encountered. CHEMISTRY OF 1-4‚ DIOXANE

Lab Report Introduction This lab has the following two concepts: synthesis of acetylsalicylic acid and analysis of acetylsalicylic acid. Synthesis is a purposeful execution of chemical reactions to obtain a product. This concept is used in the first part of the lab; when we have to produce crystals of aspirin. Analysis is the separation‚ identification‚ and quantification of the chemical components of natural and artificial materials. This concept is used throughout the lab when we are analyzing
