Scientific Notation

We have to deal with quantities that are extremely large or very small. For example- I may have 6,500,000,000 red blood cells, or the diameter of an iron atom is 0.000000011 inches. Numbers with many zeros can be inexpedient to work with, so scientists use scientific notation. It represents very large numbers or very small numbers in a simple form. We know that whole numbers can be extended to infinity, but we cannot write such large numbers on paper. Numbers that present in millions of places after the decimal point need to be represented simply. Thus, it is difficult to represent a few numbers in their extended form. Therefore, we use scientific notation.

Question

In autoclaving media and glassware, why do you need to maintain the temperature at 121 ⁰C and pressure at 15 psi for 15 to 20 min? What will happen if this was done in only for 10 min? Can you autoclave lab materials and decontaminate cultures at the same time?

In this step, wash the cells with ice-cold PBS. Drain the PBS, then add ice-cold lysis buffer. Scrape adherent cells off the dish using a cold plastic cell scraper, then gently transfer the cell suspension into a pre-cooled microfuge tube. Maintain constant agitation for 30 minutes at 4°C. Centrifuge in a microcentrifuge at 4°C. You may have to vary the centrifugation force and time depending on the cell type. Gently remove the tubes from the centrifuge and place on ice, aspirate the supernatant and place in a fresh tube kept on ice, and discard the pellet.
