2013-2014 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was assessed using the agar-water gel test. The agar-water gel set up was composed of a six petri dish of agar-water gel containing two wells. Pinch of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) and methylene blue (C16H18N3SCl) were simultaneously introduced to each dish and measured the distance and its rate. Methylene blue‚ having the largest molecular weight‚ displayed the smallest diameter 15.67 and diffused at the slowest rate (0

the materials that will be used in the experiment sterile. 2. Wipe the work station with Wescodyne and paper towels. It is important to keep the sterile materials such as slides in petri dish‚ Pasteur pipette in container and forceps covered as much as possible. 3. Place four to five filter papers in the petri dish and drip few drops of water on the strips‚ this will maintain moisture in the agar cushions. 4. Remove a Pasteur pipette from its container and attach a bulb to it. 5. Obtain a tube

This experiment tested the growth of E.coli with inserted plasmid on an agar plate with Ampicillin. One colony of E.coli resistant to Ampicillin was grown during this experiment. The overall goal of the experiment was to successfully grow E.coli on the agar plate‚ which would show that the plasmid had been effectively inserted into the bacteria’s genes. This experiment helped students understand how plasmids were inserted into bacteria and used in real life situations. It also showed how the bacteria’s

Serial Dilution Activity Many applications require the determination of microbial numbers. Those applications can be either clinical or in a research setting. Clinical applications include determination of antibiotic efficacy and as well as therapy. Research applications include determination of the effectiveness of antimicrobial chemicals‚ radiation‚ etc. The viable count is most common or standard method used to quantitate bacteria. With this method only microbes that are alive and able to reproduce

Problem: How do protease in some fruit juices help softening meat? Hypothesis: The protease in some fresh juices digests collagen‚ which gives meat a tough texture by holding meat fibres together. Design of investigation: In order to test the hypothesis‚ the presence of protease in those fresh juices was tested at first. Then the amount of them was needed to be compared for finding their difference in effectiveness in tenderizing meat. Control experiments were set up for proving protease was

The Effect of Molecular Weight on the Rate of Diffusion of Potassium permanganate (KMNO4)‚ Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and Methylene blue ¹ ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was determined using the Agar-water Gel Test. One drop of potassium permanganate (KMNO4)‚ potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and methylene blue were used. Each substance has a respective molecular weight of 158 g/mol‚ 294g/mol and 374 g/mol. The diameters (in millimeter) were measured
