2-Contaminophenol

Experiment 55 consists of devising a separation and purification scheme for a three component mixture. The overall objective is to isolate in pure form two of the three compounds. This was done using extraction, solubility, crystallization and vacuum filtration. The experiment was carried out two times, both of which were successful.

The investigated complexes were dissolved in DMF solvent. Electronic spectra experiments were performed by keeping investigated complexes concentrations constant while changing the CT-DNA concentration in the interaction medium. The absorption due to free CT-DNA was eliminated by adding a proper amount of CT-DNA to both compound solution and the reference solution and the spectra data obtained were considered to result from the DNA–metal complex aggregation. From the electronic spectra data, Kb (the intrinsic binding constant) was estimated from plotting [DNA] /(εa – εb) versus [DNA] according to the following relation :

Figure 1 Gel Electrophoresis for Replication Taster PTC. The gel is composed of an ethidium bromide stained 3% agarose gel demonstrating DNA fragments which were a depiction of PCR amplification. The agarose gel contains nine loading samples, including from left to right, the MW marker lane 1 precision mol mass standard, lane 2 TB undigested PTC (5µl of DNA, 5µl of master mix P, and 2.5µl of loading dye), lane 3 TB digested PTC (5µl of DNA, 5µl of master mix P, 2µl Fnu4HI, and 3µl of loading dye), lane 4 TB A(L)DH G (10µl DNA, 10µl master mix G, and 5µl loading dye), lane 5 TB A(L)DH A (10µl DNA, 10µl master mix A, and 5µl loading dye), lane 6 MG undigested PTC (5µl of DNA, 5µl of master mix P, and 2.5µl of loading dye), lane 7 MG digested PTC (5µl of DNA, 5µl of master mix P, 2µl Fnu4HI, and 3µl of loading dye), lane 8 MG A(L)DH G (10µl DNA, 10µl master mix G, and 5µl loading dye), lane 9 MG A(L)DH A (10µl DNA, 10µl master mix A, and 5µl loading dye).

After drying out the product and recrystallizing it for weighing, it was determined that the total weight of the product was 0.091g which gave a percent yield of 32.535%, meaning that the overall the reaction was successful however there are quite a few areas for improvement in this experiment to increase the yield of the reaction. The melting point of the product was taken to be 170.7 degrees C meaning that the product produced, despite having a low yield, was in fact acetaminophen and not p-aminophenol which would have melted at a higher temperature of 188-190 degrees C. Looking at the TLC plate it was shown that the reaction did in fact reach completion because the final reaction mixture eluted as far as the acetaminophen standard and not as far as the p-aminophenol standard, meaning that the acetaminophen standard and the reaction mixture had the same contents, without and p-aminophenol. Finally looking at the IR spectrum, there is a peak at around 3320 cm-1 which signifies a N-H amide stretch, there is a broad peak at about 3107 cm-1 which is the phenolic OH stretch, and is broadened by the strong hydrogen bonding.

1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol (1,2-DPG) is an analog of the protein kinase C (PKC)-activating second messenger diacylglycerol [1].

All chemical compounds were from analytical grade. 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) & urethane were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, product of China; SB-334867 from Tocris Bioscience Co, UK; dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) from Applichem Gmbh, Germany; Ketamine 10% and Xylazine 2% from Alfasan Co, Holland and diazepam from Caspian Tamin pharmaceutical Co. Rasht, Iran. Diazepam and 4-AP (fresh preparation) were diluted in saline. SB-334867 was dissolved in DMSO at final concentration of 4mM; aliquots of SB-334867 were kept in -20° C until use

The risk of some toxic substances is that they do not biodegrade once more into the ecosystem. Although, there are many modern pesticides that are now made to degrade into their original elements and molecules so that they are no longer toxic, but other substances such as plastics and other manmade chemicals do not biodegrade. These nonbiodegradable compounds are called persistent organic pollutants (POPs), for example, Bisphenol A (BPA); as such compounds can cause long-term effects to the environment due to their longevity (Spooner, 2012). The degradability of any organic compound depends on the elemental characteristics of that compound and the environmental properties of the ecosystem receiving the compound. Strategies that monitor the

The isolated DNA plasmid is quantitated using UV absorbance and SYBR Green fluorescent methods. The concentration of plasmids 1 and 2, using UV absorbance, was established to be 3227 µg/mL and 3951 µg/mL, respectively. This method also determines the 260/280 ratio for plasmid 1 which was 1.390 and for plasmid 2 which was 1.342. Furthermore, the plasmids are both contaminated with proteins. The SYBR Green fluorescent method is more accurate than the UV absorbance method since it is more specific for double-stranded DNA molecules. Therefore, the SYBR Green assay results are lower than those obtained in the UV absorbance and are estimated to be 163 µg/mL and 202 µg/mL,

Recently, several new methods have been reported, some of the most common methods for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazole have been given below.

Commercially available calf thymus DNA was purified free of proteins and single stranded regions (Ali et al , 1985). DNA (2 mg/ml) was dissolved in 0.01 M sodium chloride-sodium citrate buffer, pH 7.4 and extracted with an equal volume of chloroform-isoamyl alcohol (24:1) in a stoppered container and shaken end to end for 1 hour. The aquous layer containing DNA was separated from organic layer and re-extracted with chloroform-isoamyl alcohol mixture. DNA was precipitated with two volumes of chilled absolute ethanol and collected on a sterilized glass rod. After drying in air, the DNA was dissolved in acetate buffer (30mM sodium acetate containing 30mM zinc chloride, pH 5.0) and treated with Nuclease S1 (150 units/mg

2. Materials and Method All the chemicals were obtained from commercial sources and used without further purification. Melting point was measured in digital melting point apparatus (Veego, VMP-DS) model. 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectral was recorded at room temperature on a 300MHz liquid state NMR spectrometer in (Brüker Biospin, Switzerland) using tetramethylsilane as internal standard. The reactions were monitored by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) using precoated plates (Merck).

The article describes using the method of gel electrophoresis to separate DNA fragments to identify and analyze certain sequences. The DNA fragments were broken down using a restriction enzyme from Haemophilus influlenzae, allowing the researchers to see that these restriction enzymes can be used to study DNA and its structure. The first step of the gel electrophoresis was to set the gel matrix. Agarose was used to separate DNA molecules, and acrylamide was used to separate proteins. The gel starts off as a liquid, which was poured into a molding tray. A comb was placed in the liquid matrix so that when the matrix solidified, wells formed to load samples in them. After the gel solidified, the mold was removed and placed

Special care was taken to ensure that the spin column did not come in contact with the flow-through. Since the chDNA is bound to the silica at this point, they must be separated using two wash buffers. The initial 500 μl of buffer (AW1: Wash Buffer 1) was added in order to remove contaminants and proteins that could be in the sample using chaotropic salts (Qiagen, 2006). After centrifuging the sample for 60 seconds at maximum speed, 500 μl of Wash Buffer 2 (AW2) was added to remove the salts (this contained ethanol). After centrifuging the mixture for 3 minutes at maximum speed, AW2 was added again and centrifuged (Qiagen, 2006). Once this final centrifuge was finished, the sample was air-dried for 10 minutes at room temperature. Next, a microcentrifuge tube was added beneath the spin column, and 75 μl of DNA grade water was added to the spin column. This was done to rehydrate the DNA and separate it from the silica (Qiagen, 2006). The tube was then incubated for 2 minutes at room temperature and centrifuged at maximum speed for 2 minutes. This step was repeated in order to elute the sample (total volume 150 μl).

Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC) is a simple and inexpensive technique that is often used to judge the purity of a synthesized compound or to indicate the extent of progress of a chemical reaction. In this technique, a small quantity of a solution of the mixture to be analyzed is deposited as a small spot on a TLC plate, which consists of a thin layer of silica gel (SiO2) or alumina (Al2O3) coated on a glass or plastic sheet. The plate constitutes the stationary phase. The sheet is then placed in a chamber containing a small amount of solvent, which is the mobile phase. The solvent gradually moves up the plate via capillary action, and it carries the deposited
