• What are the strategic choices available? Biocon India Group is a Bangalore-based organization that began in 1978 with the enzyme business. An enzyme, by the way, is a substance produced by a living organism which acts as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction. That said, the Biocon India realized that growth is imminent and various strategic choices are available. The first strategic choice available to Managing Director, Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw’s Biocon India is expansion…

Introduction: There are five main nutrients in food: 1. Protein 2. Carbohydrates 3. Lipids 4. Minerals 5. Vitamins Nutrients are part of a nutritious diet. It is important when trying to live a healthy lifestyle to get the correct balance of nutrients to say healthy. Nutrients are needed to build up and repair body tissue and cells that may become damaged or weakened. They help to maintain our vital organs and help keep our bones in working condition which helps strengthen us. Nutrients help…

cryopreservation, uses liquid nitrogen to freeze the microorganisms culture. On the other hand, deep freezer storage, requires only a standard laboratory freezer. Cryopreservation involves freezing in liquid nitrogen at -196°C or in the gas phase above the liquid nitrogen at -150°C. As for deep freeze storage method,…

OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS 1) Structure Figure 1.1 The omega-3 fatty acids are also known as ω-3 fatty acids or n-3 fatty acids which contain a long chain of polyunsaturated fatty acids and the chain ranges from 18 to 22 carbon atoms (Collins J.J., 2010). The fatty acids have two ends; the carboxylic acid end (-COOH) and the methyl end (-CH3). The carboxylic acid end is considered the starting of chain which is “alpha” and methyl chain is considered as the tail of the long chain…

(G-Storm GS1 thermal cycler, GRI Ltd., Gene House, Essex, United Kingdom) programmed as follows: (1) 94°C for 2 min (initial denaturation); (2) 94°C for 1 min (denaturation), (3) 56°C (in the case of Ol12-E03 primer) or 52°C (in the case of for Ol12-F11, Ol10-H02, Ol10-A03a, Ol10-F11a primers) for 1 min (annealing), 72°C for 1 min (extension) per 35 cycles; (4) 72°C for 20 min (final extension) then 4°C (infinitive). The amplified PCR products were resolved on 2% (w/v) agarose gels stained with…

act the same, some directly bind to amino acids, while others relay the signals indirectly through protein interactions. Identifying FLCN amino acid reservoir allows us to determine how FLCN interacts with amino acids by providing insight whether the interaction is direct or…

Phase 2 – Agarose Gel Electrophoresis 1. Obtain our four H, E, L, and P labeled micro tubes and place them on ice. 2. Set the micro pipet to 2.0 ul. 3. Transfer 2.0 ul blue dye to each of the four H, E, L, and P micro tubes. 4. Mix the four micro tubes by using this two-step method: * Place each tube briefly on the vortex to get the components to collect at the bottom of the micro tubes * Pulse spin the four micro tubes in the centrifuge to mix all of the components completely. 5.…

dissolved in 1000 ml double distilled water, stirred to mix properly and was transferred into 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks and autoclaved at 121˚C at 15 psi for 15 min. Aseptically, 25ml of sterilized PDA was poured into pre-sterilized 90mm glass petri-plates and allowed to solidify at room temperature. The plates were stored in incubator at the temperature 26 ± 2°C until further use. 4.1.2 Sub culturing…

1.4 Effect of Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC)Type Formula F12 was utilized to study the effect of changing the type of MCC(Avecil PH-101 ) as a carrier material instead of (Avecil PH-102) in F8 on the dissolution behavior of the prepared Zolmitriptan liquisolid ODTs. Although the DT of formula F12 (79 sec.) was greater than F8 (48 sec.) as in Table(18),the dissolution behavior of the formula F12 was faster than F8 as in Table (18) and Figure (48), this difference was non…

Salts and molecules have similar characteristics, and many differences whether we can tell by first looks or not. Testing these two only supports the differences, and many structural functions cause these differences. Since salts are ionically bonded, they have different properties and functions compared to the covalent bonded molecules. Salts have a ionic bond, and we can confirm due to their electronegativity. As you move from left to right on the periodic table you would notice that…
