Vanderbilt University -Facility Core Training is offered in basic aseptic techniques and Biosafety Level 2 procedures. Major equipment in the Cell biology Core is listed below. http://www-apps.niehs.nih.gov/centers/public/fac-core/ctr-600-3326.htm
Extractions: Facilities and Equipment The Cell Biology Core laboratory contains an outer wet bench area of approximately 475 net square feet accessible from the hallway. This area is used for record keeping, preparation and storage of media, reagents, supplies, and cryopreserved cells. It contains refrigerators, freezers, Dewars, liquid nitrogen tanks and small equipment. From inside the wet bench lab, there is restricted access into two inner rooms (total approximately 480 net square feet). These rooms are dedicated to tissue and cell culture and are equipped appropriately. Biosafety Level 2 precautions are exercised in these restricted areas. Major equipment in the Cell Biology Core is listed below. The facility is well equipped. The existing equipment is well maintained, routinely calibrated and disinfected, or otherwise subjected to routine quality control procedures. Investigators perform very simple and technically sophisticated experiments in this facility. They do so with the confidence that all equipment is working properly and that any suspected malfunction will be investigated and corrected as necessary by laboratory personnel.

Extractions: skip to content Advanced Search Assignments There are six problem sets for this course. Of the six graded problem sets, the lowest grade is dropped in calculating your final grade (see below). The last problem set, Problem Set 7, will not be graded, however, the material on this problem set will be covered on the Final Exam. Although you may engage in general discussions of problems, sharing of answers is a violation of the trust placed in all students in the class, each of whom is entrusted with producing her/his own set of answers. Students who copy problem set answers or allow their problem sets to be copied may receive a for all the Problem Sets (and thus lose 20% of the grade).

Extractions: (Major Code - SBA) The Biotechnology Option enables you to prepare for professional work in pharmaceutical, agrichemical, biochemical and other applied molecular biology research institutions and firms. During the past several years, molecular biology has experienced an unprecedented explosion in growth and popularity. Applications of molecular biological techniques have resulted in the development of biotechnology, an industry that started with innovative minds of molecular biologists. There are four major sectors in the biotech industry: Of the people employed by biotech companies, more than two-thirds are college graduates. The baccalaureate degree with biotech background also serves as an excellent basis for graduate study because students will acquire a sound comprehension of the principles and techniques of biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics. A Master of Science in Biology degree with a specialization in Biotechnology is also offered at Purdue Calumet. The Department of Biological Sciences provides a state-of-the-art laboratory center for undergraduate, graduate, and faculty research. The center is fully equipped for teaching/research in protein, nucleic acid biochemistry, and cell biology. Equipment includes a multiplate ISO-DALT system for protein separation by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, a pulse-field gel electrophoresis system for separating chromosome-sized DNA, thermal cyclers for DNA amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a comprehensive preparatory chromatography system for purification of enzymes and other proteins, various models of centrifuges, and dual-beam uv/visible spectrophotometers for molecular biology studies.

Extractions: At the workplace of a biologist [B.CI.2] who studies bees and pollination variations due to forest density 1:30 to 3:30pm, November 5, 2004 On Friday, 5 November 2004, I visited the workplace of Biologist B.CI.2. He is a 3 rd year PhD student in Biology, studying Landscape Ecology. In particular, he studies bees and pollination in Central and South America. His most recent work was in Costa Rica, where he researched how different land use and land types affect the amount of pollination that bees perform (i.e. spatial studies of pollination). He has spent two seasons in the field. He hasnt published papers on bees yet, but has published papers on other topics in the past. Currently, he is working on a chapter for a book on bees. He has also published some material in spanish; hes working on translating it and getting it published here. Hes working a grant proposal to get some more funding for his research. Field Notebook He used his personal field notebook for mental notes. He did not record lots of data in the field, but would note things like from why he chose a certain site, to how many hours his hired help worked .quite varied in use. He didnt really look at it after he got back to his lab station.

Equipment And Techniques equipment and Techniques. Collection and storage. The primary sources of age samples processed by the Fishery biology Investigation are Northeast Fisheries http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/femad/pbio/fbi/age-man/meth/methtext.htm
Extractions: Collection and storage The primary sources of age samples processed by the Fishery Biology Investigation are Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC) research vessel bottom trawl and shellfish resource surveys and commercial landings. Additional samples are periodically collected during various state-conducted research surveys and by fisheries observers who serve aboard domestic and foreign fishing vessels. Scales and otoliths are the anatomical structures most frequently collected from finfish. Scales are preferred because they are easier to collect and process, providing, of course, that clearly defined growth patterns are consistently formed. Young-of-year specimens and samples of certain species with fragile or difficult to remove age structures, e.g., Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) and Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus), are frozen whole for later dissection and processing at the laboratory. Other structures, such as fin rays or vertebrae, may also be collected and used for special studies, such as age validation. While scales are the easiest structure to collect, they must be taken from an area on the fish known to exhibit complete and clear growth patterns. For gadids and flounders, this area is on either side of the lateral line anterior to the caudal peduncle, the area where the first and largest scales develop. For other species, such as bluefish
