The main purpose of the paper is to explore how bacterial cells, specifically Helicobacter pylori get their helical shape and what function the shape has. Helicobacter pylori is an interesting specimen to study because while some information is known on shape formation of bacterial cells (Bacillius, Coccus, Vibrio), little to no information is known of the factors that produce Helicobacter pylori’s shape. In reality, when Helicobacter pylori forms it must elongate itself, have curvature and twist
paper-folded microscope project. In addition, Dr. Prakash currently serves as a Bioengineering professor at Stanford University. In this presentation, Dr. Prakash discusses the lack of access that some countries have for microscopes. Thus, Dr. Prakash decided to create an inexpensive, easy to use, paper-folded microscopes that developing countries could have access to. The objective of this presentation was to discuss how having access to a microscope (such as the paper-folded microscope)

The first lab we ever did in Biology 101 was about the scientific method. The scientific method is used in solving everyday problems. The first part of the scientific method is to begin making observations and asking questions about the situation. Once that is done, you should then check some accumulated sources of scientific data to gain information about the situation. Then you must formulate a hypothesis. In other words, the hypothesis is what will lead to the formation of a statement that can
In the year 1882 a man by the name of Walter Flemmings found out the process of mitosis in greater depth. A German zoologist Otto Bütschli might have discovered a process known as "mitosis", nevertheless he wasn't able to explain the topic in understandable vocabulary. Originally mitosis was discovered in frog, rabbit, and cat cornea cells and described briefly by the Polish histologist Wacław Mayzel in 1875. Flemmings got the fame because of his explanation. Now most of you might not know what
The Microscope and Malaria, the “King of Diseases” Courtney Graham Hipp, Lab Report 1 Conclusion Malaria is one of the world’s most enduring, destructive, and pervasive diseases. Mummies from as many as 3,000 years ago have been diagnosed with malaria, based on intestinal damage. Some of the earliest recorded writings refer to the “tertian” (every third day) and “quartan” (every fourth day) fevers typical of the disease. In India it was dubbed “The King of Diseases,” considered to be a curse from
parts of the confocal microscope. It will follow by more information about fluorescence microscopy which is used for study fixed and living cells because of its versatility, specificity, and high sensitivity. Introduction: The Confocal Microscope is a type of microscope that is being developed for obtaining high-resolution images and 3D reconstruction. The images from the confocal are far better then other microscopes; however, not quite as good as fluorescent microscopes. The confocal shows the
The microscope which is invented and developed by much different scientist overtime is one of the most important tools a scientist especially in the biology and chemistry study can use. It made an impact in how we view life and learn more about the nature of diseases that had plague mankind for years. The microscope is mainly a tool biologist use but it has many uses for those studying chemistry. Life before the microscope may not seem as different as life with the microscope. But if you
Microscopy and the Metric System Margaret E. Vorndam, M.S. Version 42-0090-00-01 Lab Report Assistant This document is not meant to be a substitute for a formal laboratory report. The Lab Report Assistant is simply a summary of the experiment’s questions, diagrams if needed, and data tables that should be addressed in a formal lab report. The intent is to facilitate students’ writing of lab reports
The first lab I ever did in Biology 101 was about the scientific method. The scientific method is used to solve everyday problems. I learned about all the steps it takes to carry out the scientific method completely. This lab taught me the basics of how any scientific experiment is performed. The first part of the scientific method is to begin making observations and asking questions about different situations. It is important to always check accumulated sources of scientific data to gain information
