arising from the isthmus in front of the larynx • The gland is well vascularized‚ and the thyroid has one of the highest rates of blood flow per gram of tissue of any organ in the body. Anatomic considerations • The thyroid is made up of multiple acini (follicles). • Each spherical follicle is surrounded by a single layer of cells and filled with pink-staining proteinaceous material called colloid. Anatomic considerations • When the gland is inactive‚ the colloid is abundant‚ the follicles are large

stained if the dyer solution is used at the specific pH at which the reactive groups are fully ionized. To achieve full ionization of the reactive groups‚ some alcian blue methods begin with a rinsing of sections in the appropriate pH solution prior to staining with the dye solution. In general‚ strongly sulfated mucins react more consistently at low pH levels. Above a pH of 1.0 their reactions are variable. At a pH of 0.2 only strongly sulfated mucosubstances will be demonstrated‚ while weak sulfated mucins

This technique was called staining‚ and was when one would stain nervous tissue before examining to under a microscope. However‚ several years later in 1873‚ Camillo Golgi came out with a new‚ improved staining method. The staining technique‚ allows the frequently transparent microbial cytoplasm’s to be seen with the light of the microscope by staining them. Through this new method there were several new discoveries‚ surrounding the nervous

EXPERIMENT 1: PREPARATION OF BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS FOR MICROSCOPIC EXAMINATION Introduction: Cell is the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism‚ and is often called the building blocks of life. All organisms are composed of one or more cells‚ they are classified into 2 groups which are unicellular organisms and multicellular organisms. Plants and animals are made up of cells too. There are two basic classes of cells‚ prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The structurally simpler‚ prokaryotic

Chapter One INTRODUCTION Herbal medicines tend to look primitive and unscientific when compared to synthetic (conventional) drugs‚ which are thought to be more reliable than those made from plants. Herbal medicine is still the mainstay of about 75-80% of the world population‚ mainly in the developing countries for primary health care (Kamboj‚ 2000). This is primarily because of the general belief that herbal drugs are without any side effects‚ besides being cheap and locally available. The

(1) Direct staining stained bacteria with basic dye (methylene blue‚ carbol fuchsin‚ crystal violet‚ etc) which its coloring power is in positive ion‚ and reacts with the negatively charged cell. Thus‚ the bacterial cell will be stained with the basic dye’s color. In other words‚ direct staining

This experiment is to determine the unknown DNA plasmid using restriction enzymes and conducting electrophoresis finally comparing the resulting fragments with the known restriction map. In this lab‚ it succeeds in showing the fragments. In this report we will discuss the‚ results‚ limitations and possible errors. Introduction In biology restriction enzymes are used in several ways to modify and manipulate DNA molecules. One common use is to compare pieces of DNA from one that is unknown‚ with fragments
