Introduction: Mycelium is a fungal colony comprising of branched tubular filaments‚ called hyphae‚ that is enclosed by a rigid cell wall (1). Furthermore‚ mycelium makes up the body structure of fungi and is the primary element for fungal development (2). By using this mycelium from fungi‚ materials can be created with many of the same properties of conventional synthetics‚ whilst having less destructive effects on the environment (3). These compostable materials are able to break down‚ unlike styrofoam

This lab experiment investigates the effect of listening to different types of music on one’s pulse. The experiment relates the circulatory system to the pulse as it measures how quickly the heart contracts and releases blood. Pulse is measured in beats per minute (bpm). One’s pulse is loudest near the heart‚ because there is more pressure closer to the heart. In contrast‚ one’s pulse is quieter the further away it is measured from the heart‚ because there is less pressure the further the distance

University of Texas at Tyler Lab 3C: Purification of L-Lactate Dehydrogenase By Affinity Chromatography on Cibacron-Blue Sepharose David Alexander 10-15-2014 Dr. Black Chem 4135.001 Abstract: Like the previous experiments‚ the ultimate goal of this lab was to purify the enzyme sample. However‚ this is the last lab for purification and high level techniques of purification were employed to achieve this. Dialysis was used first‚ lowering the small-molecule concentration within the sample. Finally

[Name] [Teacher] [Course] [Date] Catalase Lab Report An enzyme is something that helps to speed up a chemical reaction. The enzyme changes from reaction to reaction‚ but it always has the same impact. However‚ certain variables may cause the enzyme to have a more or less significant impact on the speed of each reaction. One of these variables that changes the effectiveness of an enzyme is temperature. There is an optimal functioning temperature for each enzyme in each reaction‚ depending on

Introduction and Purpose: This lab focuses on how weight affects the time it takes for a rotocopter to fall from a drop height of 1 and 2 meter(s) respectively. The primary goal of this lab is to investigate and explain the relationship of these two factors. During the process of conducting this experiment‚ learning to design a lab will also be achieved. Research Question: What is the effect of weight on the time it takes for a rotocopter to fall from a drop height of 1 and 2 meter(s)? Variable

Lab Report Marisa McKinney P. 2 Purpose: To investigate the periodic variation of density in Group 4A elements. Background: When the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number‚ they exhibit periodic recurrence of properties. Elements in the same group in the periodic table tend to have similar physical and chemical properties. These similarities are due‚ in large part‚ to similarities among the electron configurations of the elements in a group. You can find periodic

ISP SCUHS Report 2 January 26‚ 2014 Abstract The analyses of mixture were to distinguish and identify homogeneous mixture by using the techniques of decantation and sublimation. By performing these techniques‚ we examined our solutions such as SiO2 (sand)‚ NH4Cl (ammonium chloride)‚ and NaCl (sodium chloride) and mixed H2O (water) with each solution after being heated. After examining our solutions‚ we made calculations by finding the percent mass of each solution once the experiment was completed

I. Objective The first objective of the measurement of thermal conductivity & one-dimensional heat conduction experiment was to identify three different metal specimens by comparing their experimentally determined thermal conductivities to known thermal conductivity values of existing metals. The second objective of the experiment was to establish a connection between the thermal conductivities & temperatures of the metal specimens. Thirdly‚ the contact resistance of the interfaces between
