    Jurassic Park is possible with today's genetic engineering; Genetic modification and engineering have already been used in agriculture for many years. We have had the power to genetically modify agriculture through the use of fusing or cross-breeding since before 10,000 B.C. The use of genetic modification on agriculture has been widely accepted for years and we have cloned multiple living organisms. In the movie, Hammond re-creates dinosaurs and other prehistoric organisms like plants. He

    seconds. The Eppendorf tube was then heated to 65°C and incubated for 10 mins before a second phase of a 15 second vortex. Finally, the Eppendorf tube was heated at 98°C and incubated for 2 minutes before being stored on ice. DNA Amplification via Polymerase Chain Reaction This step was performed twice in separate tubes, once for D1S80 containing the hot start Master Mix bead and once for D3S1358 containing the ready to go Master Mix bead. In an Eppendorf tube containing

    use DNA to benefit others (Chanteau, 2006). PCR (Polymerase chain reactions) are used to make an enhancement in one or more copies of a DNA sequence. This process enables an easy setup and it allows for millions of copies of DNA segments to be produced. A PCR can recognize the exact genotype of a person. The technique begins by putting the micro centrifuge tube in a thermocycler. This tube contains DNA, forward and reverse primers, Taq DNA polymerase, and deoxy nucleotides. After removing the tube

    DECOLORIZATION OF SOME TEXTILE DYES BY PLEUROTUS CITRINOPILEATUS AND ASPERGILLUS NIGER IMMOBILIZED ON WHEAT STRAW Abstract: The potential of wheat straw immobilized Aspergillus niger and Pleurotus citrinopileatus were studied for biodegradation ability of different types of textile dyes. Non exposed and exposed tested immobilized fungi to (1 KGy and 2 KGy) of gamma irradiation were used. The tested textile dyes were Reactive red Bx, Direct Brown BN, Direct yellow 5G, disperse orange 2 RLS, Disperse

    Weekly summary on DNA The importance of the work of Griffith, Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty: Three scientists, Oswald Avery, Colin MacLeod, and Maclyn McCarty, managed to show that Frederick Griffith’s transforming factor was in fact DNA that is DNA is the heritable substance. At first, Avery disregarded Griffith’s results that really challenged his own research on pneumococcal capsules. However, he soon confirmed Griffith’s results and set about trying to purify this mysterious transforming principle

    1. Describe the molecular nature and the inheritance pattern of the disease/disorder, ensuring to cite the original research paper that first identified specific genetic & molecular nature of the disease. Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an inherited genetic disorder that affects the respiratory and digestive systems. CF is cause by the mutation on chromosome 7 called CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator). This gene will produce a gene that helps in the movement of sodium chloride

    Sickle Cell Anaemia Describe the molecular nature and the inheritance pattern of the disease/disorder, ensuring to cite the original research paper that first identified specific genetic & molecular nature of the disease. Sickle Cell Anaemia follows an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance, meaning the gene is on an autosome as opposed to a sex chromosome, and the disease only expresses itself in individual who posses two copies of the gene. The prevalence of the disease can be mainly attributed
