It has links to sites containing experiments or demonstrations that I have used in workshops, classroom demonstrations or as presentations to visiting students of any age. As a microbiologist, I focus on activities using microbes to demonstrate basic scientific principles. If you are a teacher within a reasonable driving distance from Rolla I would be happy to visit your classroom to demonstrate some of these activities or to talk to your students about Microbiology. I welcome any suggestions to improve this page and would love to hear about links that I may have missed.

Extractions: This Multi-User Analytical Laboratory was set up in 1990 to provide students, faculty and staff throughout Clemson University and especially in the College of Agriculture, Forestry and Life Sciences with access to equipment which may not be available in individual laboratories and may only be needed periodically and not be practical for individual laboratories to obtain and maintain. Chemical analysis is important to many areas of research within Clemson University. For examples you only have to look at any newspaper or popular magazine. Articles are present everyday concerning the active ingredients of drugs and herbal products, problems of soil, water and air pollution, identification of microbial contaminants or disease causing agents, analysis of food products and safety of those products. All of these articles have been based on some type of chemical analysis. These types of chemical analysis as well as many other are the types of analysis which can be conducted utilizing the facilities associated with the Multi-User Analytical Laboratory. (See examples of current and previous research below.)

Extractions: Proper cellular growth and differentiation is determined by the regulated expression of the genetic material within the cell. Recently, it has become clear that the decay rates of mRNAs are regulated and play an important role in controlling gene expression. It has been my goal to define both cis- and trans-acting factors which regulate mRNA stability and I have chosen to do this in a system capable of high resolution biochemical and genetic analysis, i.e., the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Recently, it has become clear that the processes of translation and mRNA decay are intimately linked. Results suggesting this relationship include; a) inhibition of translational elongation can reduce mRNA decay rates; b) ribosome translocation up to or through the a previously identified instability element in the MAT[alpha]1 gene in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is required for its rapid decay; c) instability elements involved in the rapid decay of a variety of yeast and mammalian mRNAs have been localized to the coding regions of the respective mRNAs; d) instability elements may be rich in rare codons; e) experiments with mammalian cell-free systems indicate that a nuclease activity capable of degrading mammalian mRNAs is associated with polysomes; and e) premature translational termination can enhance mRNA decay rates.

Extractions: low graphics broader: equipment Swine production homepage The swine production homepage is published on the Web by the School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, as part of their Computer Aided Learning Web site. The site provides information on pig production in the US, pig biology, glossary of pig-related terms and housing facilities for commercial pigs. A set of lecture slides relating to the course Physical Exam and Animal Management is available. A collection of online quizzes on pig biology and pig farm facilities is also provided and answers are available in a separate section online. There are links to related Web resources and references to published material. The website is dated 1997 and does not appear to have been updated since so the statistics are rather out of date but the information on pig biology and breeding is still relevant. teaching materials pigs pig farming Poisonous plants Poisonous plants is published on the Web by the School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, as part of their Computer Aided Learning Web site.
