separate individual cells of a particular microbe. This requires the use of a solid medium that provides a surface for the individual cells to be separated and isolated from the other microbial cells that may be present in the original sample. C. Compare your L. acidophilus pour plates and spread plate. Which method do you think worked better to isolate individual colonies? Why? I think spread plates worked best because a solid medium that provides a surface for the individual cells to

Isolation of Caffeine from Tea (12A) Introduction When a person drinks tea or coffee‚ it is not pure caffeine. It also has other natural substances. The purpose of this lab was to isolate caffeine from tea leaves. The methylene chloride removed nearly pure caffeine from the basic tea solution. Caffeine is a white‚ crystalline‚ bitter alkaloid‚ C8H10N4O2 ‚ usually derived from coffee or tea. Caffeine is used in medicine chiefly as a nervous system stimulant. Caffeine is used by humans to ward off

In brief‚ the purpose of this lab was to isolate DNA from a food sample‚ amplify the DNA using a polymerase chain reaction‚ and test the amplified DNA for the presence of the Bt gene or the 35s promoter. In part one of DNA isolation‚ the food sample was crushed before Lysis Buffer was added‚ in part to break down some cell walls‚ but also to increase area of the food sample being touched by the Lysis Buffer. The purpose of Lysis Buffer is to break down the cells in the food sample and release their

Math Practice Lab Pre-Lab Questions: 1. The rules concerning handling significant figures are as follows: When dividing/multiplying The answer has no more significant digits than the number with the fewest significant digits (the least precise figure). Round off after calculations have been performed. When adding/subtracting Answer has no more places than the addend‚ minuend‚ or subtrahend with the fewest number of decimal places. Significant figures are irrelevant when adding/subtracting
