Quantification

The distinction between qualitative and quantitative goes far beyond that of whether or not numbers are being implemented during the process of recording data; qualitative researchers can use numbers to label and categorize objects. The conventional view is that the qualitative researcher finds their observations to be more descriptive and contextually dependent, while the quantitative researcher is allowed to make predictions and deductive inferences while assuming that their findings can be…

During this experiment that was conducted in partners, the concentration of RNase H that was purified in the previous experiment #6 was determined and also the concentration of an unknown given solution using their absorbance values obtained from the spectroscopy apparatus. These concentrations were calculated using the equation of the line produce with the values of the concentration (x-axis) and corresponding absorbance (y-axis) of five protein bovine gamma globulin standard solutions. In…

Effect of injection site on severity of pain in intravitreal injection of bevacizumab ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between the site of injection and the severity of pain in patients receiving intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB). Methods: In this interventional prospective clinical trial 1004 eyes of 1004 patients who were candidates to received IVB were randomized into 4 groups: superotemporal, superonasal, inferotemporal, and inferonasal site for injection. Visual Analog Scale…

skeletal muscle had the lowest lipid content when comparing liver, muscle, and adipose tissue. The percent lipid was found to be 30% in liver tissue, 70% in muscle tissue, and 90% in adipose tissue in the samples collected. Protein Extraction and Quantification The absorbance vs concentration curve prepared from the Bradford Protein Assay standards was found to have a linear regression of y = 2.2184x + 0.0626 as shown in Figure 1. The absorbances of the liver, muscle, and adipose tissue were…

Lawrence Zhang (SID 25737511) Phil 25A First Paper GSI: Rachel Rudolph 1 October 2014 Socrates ' argument on the ability to measure pleasure and pain In Protagoras, Socrates argues that we sometimes make bad decisions and actions based on our ignorance and inability to measure good and bad. His argument draws upon the assumption that we will always do what we perceive will bring us the most pleasure, yet many of us are incapable of measuring which path will bring us the most pleasure (357a). In…

Phenomenological and Narrative Research A discussion comparing and contrasting two qualitative research methodologies, such as phenomenological and narrative analysis, will be the focus of this report. Further, different components of both analytical strategies will form the body of this document and includes the purpose, philosophical stance, role of the researcher and data analysis procedures. Finally, a comparison between phenomenological and narrative methodologies will form the…

Introduction According to Schilling (2012), developing innovative novel projects in order to initiate products or services really takes considerable time, uses a tremendous budget, as well as is extremely risky. As mentioned in Schilling (2012), there are a lot of evidences that indicates the majority of projects is failed. Consequently, it is important for each organization to emphasize on considering which projects are worthwhile for the investment and time-consuming and whether the…

(1999) used a transgenic plant that was created by adding genes that code for luciferase to the gene they wanted to study, in this case APX2. Luciferase is used in bioluminescence because it gives off light which allows the quantification of APX2 by the light it gives off in relative light units (RLU). To make sure that adding the luciferase gene to APX2 did not affect the concentrations, they compared Northern blotting of APX2-LUC to APX2 and found that they both activated in…

Mycelial discs (5 mm diameter) were inoculated in potato dextrose broth as above and incubated at 28+1°C for 7 days. The mycelial inoculum of M. phaseolina was centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 10 minutes. Supernatant was decanted and pellets were washed and re-suspended in sterile distilled water. At 15th days after sowing, the soil was inoculated in Set-II by drenching the soil near plant roots. On 8th day ten seedlings from three replicates were chosen randomly for measurements of shoot and root…

In high school, a counselor reached out to some of the students whom she knew were interested in healthcare. An adolescent psychiatrist from our local hospital was giving a presentation to doctors, nurses, and other healthcare disciplines, as part of an annual education conference. The presentation was focused on how to communicate with the teen-aged patient. She asked four or five students to serve on a student panel. We answered her questions and gave our perspectives during the presentation.…
