You’ve made a 25 mM stock of colchicine (a tubulin inhibitor; dissolved in distilled water), which you’d like to use to study the effect of tubulin on phagocytosis in T.pyriformis. Based on published research articles that you’ve read, you’d like to preincubate T. pyriformis with colchicine at a final, effective concentration of 75 µM. Assuming you need 40 µL of the cell+colchicine mixture for your experiment, please explain how you can use your 25 mM solution of colchicine, T. pyriformis cells, and distilled water to create your cell+colchicine mixture.

- If the volume of a Staphylococcus aureus cell is estimated at 0.5 μm3, how many cells could be accommodated, in principle, in 5 mL of saturated culture? (1 mL = 1 cm3). Show your calculations.One of the early results shows that the post-centrifugation pellet of encapsulated cells also contains EA1 and/or Sap. Why is this not proof that Bacillus anthracis cells have both an S-layer and a capsule simultaneously? I need help finding the answer in the article and explain in short answer link to article: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC106848/Both ethanol and trimethyldodecylammonium chloride are active ingredients in cleaning products used to disinfect. Both will inactivate coronaviruses by a similar mechanism of action. Describe that mechanism of action and why both chemicals are able to cause it. (Reminder: coronaviruses are "lipid envelope" viruses.) Consider the physical properties of these compounds to answer the following question: why might you choose to use a cleaning product with one of these active ingredients over the other?
- Prior to subculture, Tifa used a hemocytometer to count her HepG2 cells cultured on a T-25 flask. After trypsinization, she prepared her cells by mixing 50 µL of the cell suspension with 50 μL of 0.4% trypan blue. Her observation under the microscope is as shown below: 1 (1) (ii) 3 (iii) 2 (iv) 4 Note: Count cells on the four labelled squares.

Show your calculations in detail. Calculate the concentration of viable cells per mL in the original culture. Show your calculations in detail. Based on your understanding of cell culture, do you think she should proceed with subculture? Justify your answer.Under cellular conditions, dATP can be oxidized to its 2-hydroxy form, which is a substrate for an enzyme that converts 2-OH-dATP to 2-OH-dAMP + PPi. Explain why compounds that inhibit the activity of this enzyme would be eff ective anticancer agents.Regarding the use of animal cells in culture, it is correct to state that: * (a) Low cost culture media composed of mineral salts and amino acids are used (b) Cells must be kept in semi-solid media, allowing them to come into contact with the atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide. (c) Greenhouses with controlled temperature and atmosphere composed predominantly of carbon monoxide are used (d) On an industrial scale, culture media supplemented with serum of animal origin are used, which makes them media of indefinite composition (e) Culture media must not be sterilized by autoclaving, preferably filtration and/or ionizing radiation methods are used
- What is the effect of trypsin EDTA solution on monolayer cell culture preparation?Bacterial growth depends on many environmental factors, including the temperature of the environment. Since microbes can survive in a certain range of temperatures and will thrive at a temperature, understanding these variables allows for control of their growth. This understanding can be used, for example, to preserve certain foods or to treat infections. This lab simulation will use an instrument called a spectrophotometer. This instrument quantitatively measures the amount of light that is absorbed or transmitted by molecules in solution a) In your own words give an introduction to the microbial growth and the effect tempature has. b) In your own words explain the importance of the spectrophotometer in regards to microbial growth. c) In your own words give a hypothesis on how bacteria will react to different temperatures.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
