    The samples were mixed in an Eppendorf tube, heated for 60s, and centrifuged for 5s. While the samples were being prepared, the electrophoresis chamber was prepped in the lab and the running buffer was poured into the chamber. The samples were then loaded into the wells, the power supply was connected, and ran for 45 minutes at 250V. The power was shut off when the dye was close to the end of the gel. the gel was placed into a tube of Simply Blue Coomassie stain mixed with 20% NaCl and microwaved in order for the bands to develop. It was then distained and a picture of the gel was…

    This lab requires three main materials, the dyed agarose gel, DNA from each virus, and an electric chamber. The agarose gel will be dyed in order to show the visual effect while in the electric chamber connected to the positive (red cord) and negative (black cord). The chamber is filled with Tris/Borate/EDTA (TBE) buffer solution since the agarose gel is compatible with the buffer solution. The DNA strands will be held in tube samples in the amount of two tubes dedicated to each virus.…

    Ovalbumin Essay

    The purpose of this experiment is to learn how to prepare albumin from egg white and to understand the basics of protein fractionation using ammonium sulfate. Ovalbumin is the major protein of egg white and is fractionated by means of ammonium sulfate precipitation. The properties of the solvent system will dissolve the protein and greatly impact solubility. In total, there are four major factors that affect protein solubility: ionic strength, pH, temperature, and dielectric constant of solvents and these are extremely useful in the field of biochemistry as well as for this experiment. Ionic strength is where protein solubility is affected when other ions are present and “salting in” stabilizes the charged protein group.…

    Future directions: I am planning to try different concentrations of TPCK-trypsin to see which concentration will work better in order not to lose cells as well as helping the IAV to infect them. Once I get my optimal concentration that will help IAV to infect the cells as well as will decrease their loss, I will evaluate the antiviral effect of duck viperin against IAV, DF-1 cells stably expressing viperin or transfected with an empty vector will be infected with A/chicken/California/431/00 (H6N2), A/duck/Memphis/546/1974 (H11N9) and A/Puerto Rico/8/1934 (H1N1) at different time points and the percentage of infected cells will be determined using the Operetta High Content Imaging System (Perkin Elmer) or by flow cytometry…

    First, students swabbed the inside of their cheek for at least 30 seconds with a cotton swab to obtain their sample for DNA extraction. 180 µl of Buffer ATL and 20 µl of proteinase K were added to the swabbed sample using sterile micropipetting techniques. The swabbed samples were incubated at 56 ⁰C in a hot block. Next, students isolated their HV1 control region DNA through a series of washes which contained 200µl of Buffer ATL, 200µl of ethanol, 500 µl of Buffer AW1 and AW2, and 50 µl of Buffer AE (Penn State Biology 220W Lab Manual, pgs. 48-49)…

    Almost all chemical reactions involve a loss or gain of heat. This change in heat is called enthalpy. The goal of this experiment is to calculate enthalpy for three different reactions. To calculate the enthalpy of a reaction, a calorimeter is used to measure the change in heat energy from mixing different substances. The change of temperature is found by comparing the change in temperature of the system to the temperature of the surroundings.…

    The advent of tissue culturing in the early 1900s has shaped modern science tremendously. Fields such as cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry and many others are heavily dependent on cell culturing to carry out experiments. Cell culturing initially began when pioneering scientists sought a way to study cells outside their tissue origin. They began with tissues and then later on, techniques were developed that enabled the study of individual cells in vitro that would give rise to animal cell culturing. In this summary of cell culturing, it is imperative to understand the history of cell culture and controversy associated with it, define what cell culture is, and explain key equipment and methods necessary to perform cell culturing to understand how critical it is to science.…

    Introduction Fed batch and perfusion batch have been used broadly in both biopharmaceuticals for years, manufacturing many different products. The choice of using one process over the other has largely boiled down to what suits a company more in terms of what is suitable to them or their preference of one process over the other. Thus when choosing these systems it is the companies long term future that is considered rather than their short term. Fed batch and perfusion batch are the 2 most commonly used processes for mammalian cell culture processes. This is especially true for glycosylated proteins required in large amounts (Chu L, Robinson DK.…

    The changes were significantly observed since day 3 post infection. This result was in line with the Annexin V study which also showed that NDV AF2240 induced higher rate of apoptosis in the bursa than NDV IBS002. In the AO/Pi assay, cells showing characteristics of apoptotic cells such as membrane blebbing, chromation condensation and up taking propidium iodide stain were evaluated. Similar to the Annexin V results, our AO/Pi results demonstrated that the time course infection of NDV AF2240 induced greater magnitude of apoptosis in chicken bursa of Fabricius compared to IBS002. From our results, the cell cycle analysis showed that NDV AF2240 resulted in a higher population of sub G0/G1 compared to IBS002, showing that apoptotic events were higher during NDV AF2240 infection as sub G0/G1 indicated DNA fragmentation, which is also one of the apoptotic cells’ characteristics.…
