Agarose Gel Electrophoresis Questions:
1. What determines how much agarose you should use in your gel?
2. Why do you see only DNA on the gel, and not protein?
3. How do you know which end of the gel to place the comb?
4. Suppose you turn on your power supply to run the gel and find that the milliamps reading is close to

- topic: gel electrophoresis What is the purpose of the running buffer?arrow_forwardPlease answer fast Dilution Problem. A culture of Staphylococcus is diluted as follows: (1) 20mL are added to 80mL of water. (2) 10uL from (1) are then added to 9.99mL of water. (3) A 10-2 dilution is made from tube # (2). (4) 100uL from (3) are plated for a pour plate and incubated. Growth Problem.A culture with approximately 2x103 cells/mL were incubated. After 3 hours, the number of cells had increased to 3x105. a) How long was the generation time in minutes?b) How many generations have occurredarrow_forwardBriefly discuss the difference between simple and differential staining? Which is better suited for common clinical microbiology laboratory applications?arrow_forward
- INSTRUCTION: Answer the question properly Do not copy in Google, plagiarize checker will be used. QUESTION: In the preparation of Bacterial smear and Gram Staining, what is the purpose of: a) heat-fixing the smear b) prolonged application of heat (without breaking slide) on the smear?arrow_forwardSample Station 7 A. If a student performs a Gram stain on a Gram negative bacterium and stops the stain technique after the iodine step and rinse, what color would you predict the cells to be if you looked at it right now under the microscope?arrow_forwardVoges Proskauer test Does color of the medium change to red after both reagents were added and allowed to sit for 60 minutes? If yes, after about how many minutes before you can see red color?arrow_forward
- Cause-and-Effect Analysis: Given the conditions below, describe the effect on the staining procedure and explain briefly: 1. Excessive heat was applied during fixation 2. Low concentration of crystal violet used during gram staining 3. Excessive washing between steps 4. Insufficient decolorization 5. Excessive counterstainingarrow_forwardDiscuss about the reagents used for agarose gel electrophoresis (not Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis)arrow_forwardExplain thoroughly the importance of EACH STEP in gram staining procedure, involving cultures of gram positive (S. aureus) and gram negative (E.coli).arrow_forward
- What medium is this? What is it detecting? Why do you see the clear ring around one bacteria (how did the clearing happen)? Clearing shows the protease caseinase is present and can digest the milk proteinarrow_forwardUse the table to differentiate between agarose gel electrophoresis and SDS-PAGE based on the following criteria: 1. Composition of gels 2. Dye used for stainingarrow_forwardfor E-coli- Describe results for Gram reaction, cell shape and arrangement (look up information) What color changes were observed for each test? Any zones of inhibition (for antibiotics only)?arrow_forward
