In 1679, William Piso became one of the first people to write about the symptoms of yaws (Mitjà et al., 2013). The name of yaws may have originated from the Carib, who are an Indian tribe from South America, word for lesion (Mitjà et al., 2013). The Carib’s word was “yaya.” Since the lesions of yaws look similar to raspberries, another common name for this disease is frambesia (Mitjà et al., 2013). Aldo Castellani discovered Treponema pallidum subspecies pertenue in 1905 (Stamm, 2015). Yaws was…

In this research paper, the functional relationship between protein named Albert and Alice will be prove using two advance techniques. Most of the molecular processes within the cell are carried out by protein-protein interaction (PPI), diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s disease can caused by abnormal PPI. As prior knowledge has advocate that this two proteins may have similar cellular pathway, therefore understanding if they have PPI becomes vital. There will be two methods described in this…

Throughout my school career, I have always been exploding with questions about the ins and outs of the natural world and as I have gotten older, this fascination has developed into a curiosity for life at a molecular level. It blows my mind how such complex organisms function as a result of the instructions from the tiny molecule that is DNA; how can it not fascinate you how an entire organism is dictated by the sequence of 4 singles bases? The content this degree will cover, for me, is really…

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disease that affects almost 35 million people worldwide. AD is mainly diagnosed in people over 65 years of age but the less prevalent early onset familial Alzheimer’s can occur much earlier. The familial AD is mainly caused by mutations in various chromosomal regions whereas the much more prevalent late onset sporadic AD which accounts for almost 95% of all AD cases is caused by the combined effect of various biomolecular…

MBK – Lab Report Name: ___Melissa Callon _________________ Section: ___________________ Observing Bacteria and Blood Questions: @. A. List the following parts of the microscope and describe the function of each 1. Eyepiece: x10 or x15 lenses used to look through to view objects within the viewing field 2. Eyepiece Tube: holds the eyepiece 3. Main Tube: moves vertically for focusing 4. Coarse Adjustment: Used for the initial focusing of the viewing…

dsRNA. Two tube C were premade and contained 240 µl and 10 µl cellfection liposome solution. After the tubes were mixed by hand, 250 µl of tube C was added to A and B and mixed gently before being incubated for 30 minutes. Examining Phenotypes and Microscopy: To examine the results of thread manipulation, we captured images of the control and affected Thread cells. We used a light microscope with an HDMI port attached to a computer. We photographed both controlled and affected samples three…

bond peptidoglycan. The C-terminal is where the specificity comes into play, while the N-terminal is the area with the active site. Amino acids primary sequence is a chain and on this chain the N comes first and the C is on the end. Electron microscopy is used to view bacteria and lysins. The bacteria that the lysins were applied to was looked at by this method and it showed holes in cell walls. This can be lethal to the cell. No one is sure whether or not one enzyme is capable of…

5.2.2.2 Interpretation of Regression Model The above equation can be written as D ∝ P^0.058/(V^(-0.117) 〖D_b〗^(-0.133) ) By observing the above equation we can say that the LAZ Depth is directly proportional to the Laser Power and inversely proportional to the Scan Velocity and Beam diameter. The observations of the model can be summarized as below: As Laser Power increases the LAZ Depth of workpiece surface will also increase. This is because the heat input to the workpiece is increasing…

“A Novel Application of Microfluidic Assay to Evaluate the Role of Calponin in Platelet Function and Clot Formation” Introduction: Platelets are a very important aspect of blood clotting. They are also essential in the evolution of clots in Coronary and Cerebral arteries, which cause heart attacks and strokes, respectively. Every year, 610,000 people die of heart disease in the United States; this is 1 in every 4 deaths. Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the United…

For what do we use microscopes? Do we need them for any types of jobs? Microscopes are very helpful for many jobs such as doctors, jewellers, Environmental and Geoscientists, Forensic Science Technicians, Biological scientists and many more. Microscopes help us see things that we are not able to see with the bare eye such as cells, bacteria and much more. For this essay I will be mainly focusing on how microscopes help doctors in their jobs. I will be talking about how microscopes have helped…
