Stem cells Nowadays‚ stem cells are the hottest topic in the medical field. More and more researches are performed to investigate these mystic cells. In order to go deeper into this topic and fully understand it‚ let’s first take a look at the stem cells themselves‚ their origins and characteristics which make them so unique and crucial for the medical field. Stem cells are very complex and complicated‚ and‚ that is why‚ it takes a lot amount of time to get to the bottom of their structure to be

Cell Reproduction Eric Gonzalez Strayer University Week 4 Lab Professor Lynn Roginsky 22 Jul 11 Cell Reproduction The goal of this week’s lab is to explore the effects cancerous cells can have on tissue in the lungs‚ stomach‚ and ovaries. Using a microscope and slideshow and based on readings in the lab the following are answers to questions asked in the experiment. Based on the data gathered from observation differences in normal cells and cancerous ones have revealed themselves. Most

Cell Membrane Transport The purposes for these experiments is to be able to understand osmosis and its relationship to tonicity of solutions‚ and the transportation of molecules across cell membranes. It’s also used to understand‚ and how temperature affects diffusion. You also learn how to test for presences of starches and sugars in solutions. In the first exercise I will be testing for diffusion through an artificial membranes. This one has forty five steps to it. I will not go into

solutions of each substance were sterilized by passing them through a 0.22 μm (Nupore Filtration Systems‚ UP‚ India) filter. The actively growing cell suspension was treated with elicitors and precursor indiviually on the day of inoculation. The effect of elicitors (ABA‚ SNP‚ SA‚ and MeJA) and precursor (Phenylalnine) on stimulation of anthocyanin in the cell suspension cultures of D. carota was studied at various concentrations viz. 10‚ 50‚ 100‚ 200 μM and phenylalanine viz. 0.5‚ 1 and 5 mM.The samples

Rotten Blood Critic Shannon Winnubst says‚ “The collective nightmare AIDS performs some of our worst cultural anxieties about desire‚ fear‚ and aggression; about gender‚ sexuality‚ and race; about history‚ bodies‚ and violence.” As unpleasant as it is to deal with AIDS Patients (vampires)‚ when a crime results in bloodshed‚ the blood left behind functions as evidence for investigators (people). A bloodstain pattern analyst (people stereotypes) can’t simply glance at drips and smears of blood and immediately
