Q.1 Why did Amway have to change its basic operating models twice in China? Amway had to change its basic operating models twice in China because they had to adhere to China’s laws and regulations to continue doing business in China. After first entering the market in 1992‚ they faced a problem 6 years later. In 1998‚ the Chinese Government declared a ban on direct selling and recruiting models. This is the successful model that Amway has been using for years all around the world. The

The Effects of Using the Heat Shock Treatment to Deliver a Vector in Genetic Transformation Introduction: In this experiment we are testing what is required for E. coli to successfully grow on LB (Luria Broth) plates with ampicillin and determining if any genetic transformation has occurred. By combining +pGLO LB and ampicillin we should get an ampicillin resistant gene and by using –pGLO we should create a non-genetic resistant bacteria. The pGLO plasmid has the GFP (green fluorescent protein)

BACTERIAL TRANSFORMATIONS USING PVIB II. INTRODUCTION Transformation is the manipulation of a bacterial cell’s DNA in order to alter the cell’s genotype or phenotype by absorbing free DNA from its surroundings. In this lab‚ pVIB plasmid will be used. A plasmid is a segment of DNA that can incorporate itself into the bacterial DNA. Although is not required for growth of the bacterial cell‚ plasmids can provide advantages in stressful environments such as the ability to adapt as environmental

Genetic transformation happens when an organism is altered by the introduction of new genetic information which is merged into the organism’s genome. Bacterial transformation is a type of genetic transformation that was used in lab and mainly used due to the single celled nature of bacteria. In this lab‚ the engineered pGLO plasmid is integrated into E. Coli bacteria‚ and adds the genes which code for the proteins GFP in the modified bacteria’s genome (Hanahan‚ Studies on transformation of Escherichia
Premium DNA Gene Bacteria
In this lab‚ we performed a genetic transformation through the process of gene transfer. Gene transfer involves the insertion of a gene into an organism. The gene to be inserted is usually contained in a plasmid‚ which is relatively small‚ circular non-chromosomal DNA molecule typically found in bacteria. Once the plasmid containing the gene is inserted into the organism‚ it is absorbed into the organism’s own genetic code. After this occurs‚ the newly introduced gene begins coding for proteins‚
