We need to prepare a stock solution of medium for your culture cells, which usually includes liquid salt solution and bovine serum. Our liquid salt solution is supplied in a 50X concentration, and we need to dilute it to 1X for use. We also need to add 75% fetal bovine serum for a final concentration of 15%. How would we make up 0.80 liters of this culture media using water as our solvent?
In an experiment to investigate membrane integrity, beet root sections were subjected to different chemicals. Membrane damage was estimated by the color intensity of leaked pigment. Five replicates of each treatment were prepared. Complete the following table with the absorbance values. Calculate the mean (average) and the standard Table 1: Absorbance readings of pigment leaked from damaged cells treated with two different chemicals.

Propidium iodide (PI) can be used to study both cell division and apoptosis using flow cytometry. Describe how PI is used to study the two cellular events with the principles explained. You are expected to give the full principle of the flow cytometric analysis of apoptosis.
Determine the concentration of L. monocytogenes enumerated from the apple slice based on the information below. You must draw your serial dilution and show your mathematical calculation. The apple slice (12 g) was first mixed with 108 ml of sterile 0.1% peptone water. After, 1 ml was added to tube containing 9 ml of sterile 0.1% peptone water. Process was repeated with two additional tubes. 1 ml was pipetted from tubes 2 and 3 onto MOX media. Plates were incubated at 37 for 48 hours. The pictures below show the plates from tube 2 (left) and tube 3 (right).
You just finished plating your electroporatio products on your YPD-Zeocin plate and you think you did everything perfectly but you come back the folloeing week and have zero colonies. Which of the following could be the reason for the absence of colonies? A) You centrifuged your electroporated cells for 30 sec at 16,000 rpm instead of 4,000 rpm before plating them B) You added sorbitol+YPD to your cells thirty minutes after pulsing your cells C) The Zeocin had not been added to the plates when they were made. D) All of the above E) Both a and b only
You wish to centrifuge and pellet yeast cells using a centrifuge. The protocol says that you needto centrifuge the culture at 2,000xg for 10 minutes at room temperature. The rotor of yourcentrifuge has a maximum diameter of 25.4cm and the minimum diameter of 12.4cm. At whatrpm should you spin the centrifuge for pelleting the cells?
Consider a batch culture of sphere-shaped bacteria in a growth medium or broth, in which the mean cell diameter of the bacteria is 2.0 μm (micron). Show all your calculations and assumptions in answering the questions below: What is the volume of one of these sphere-shaped cells, expressed in liters? If there are 3 x 10^12 cells in one liter of this culture broth, what percentage of the volume is occupied by bacteria and what percentage is occupied by the cell culture broth (water only)? If the cells contain 80% water, what is the dry cell concentration, expressed as “grams dry weight/Liter of broth”? You should assume that the density of the cells dry mass is approximately 1.0 gr/cm3
You treat some cancer cells with a new therapeutic that you hope will kill them. You run an MTT assay on the results and notice that the sample from the control cells (not treated with drug) turns purple upon addition of the MTT and the sample from the cells treated your drug are clear after adding MTT. As you walk down the hall to run your sample on the spectrophotometer, how are you feeling? (a) frustrated, (b) unsure, (c) excited. I understand that if the cell are alive, they will have functioning mitochondria, the mitochondria will be producing NADH and NADPH which will allow some enzymes in the cell to convert empty T which is colorless, into a colored form as and die. The colorelss means less dye with present, which means the less empty T was converted, meaning that we had less mitochondrial activity, which means we had less live cells. I think that the answer should be (a) frustrated. I am not sure if I am right. Glad if the expert advise.
You have a suspension of cells at a concentration of 5 x 106 cells/mL in culture media. The protocol you’re using for your experiment asks you to dilute the cells 1:10 in fresh culture medium to make a 20 mL suspension. How much of your original suspension and fresh culture media will you need? What’s the concentration of cells now in your working suspension?
