There are two great books that might be useful for you. Although I haven't needed them for your specific questions. \n1. At the bench\n2. At the helm\n\nby Kathy Barker\n\namazon.com has them

You're really going to have to do your own research on this one. \n\nYou've picked a very broad topic and it will be easier for you to understand if you can turn up some basic research materials on bioreactors/fermenters with diagrams.\n\n"with diagrams" is the key there. These things are easier to understand if you visualize them.

put bacteria under a microscope and hook it\nup to a pc and project  it would be COOL!!!!!!!

Sorry, your question has more to be desired grammatically. Are you looking for the answers to the AP Bio Lab manual?\nhttp://members.cox.net/ccjjr59/lab1.html\nJust change the number of the lab before ".html" in the address for the lab you're at.\n\nIf this isn't what you need, repost with a question that is more clear.

According to the watson and crick model the DNA\nStucture is built like a spiral staircase .\nFr the rest of it try th link below.

Any where  u go but be prepare well and practice in the lab .\nThats all.

Rules of extraction of  RNA in the laboratory:\n\n1. Keep away any source of cells - dead or alive (well other than the tissue or cells from which you want to prepare RNA)! So keep your bench clean, use gloved hands etc. Use sterile solutions. If possible, use 'baked' containers.\n\n2. Use RNAse degrading reagents (e.g., RNAse away and/or DEPC -see Sigma catalogue; ambion is a company specialized in RNA-related products, you can try their catalogue/website too) in your solutions.\n\n3. Use RNAse free disposable labwares (like tips and tubes) as much as possible.\n\nABOVE steps should take care of the notorius RNAse enzyme that is present in most of the cells and hard to be inactivated.\n\n4. Use 'RNAse-free DNAse' wherever possible. This avoids DNA contamination.\n\n5. Extend your precautions to the gel electrophoretic analysis and storage of prepared RNA also!\n\nRest: Stick to your protocol

One of the best programs is Chemwindow.\nYou can find evrything about it at: http://www.bio-rad.com/B2B/BioRad/product/br_category.jsp?BV_SessionID=@@@@1669986194.1150690834@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccchaddidjeemigcfngcfkmdhkkdfll.0&divName=Informatics+%7c+Sadtler&loggedIn=false&serviceLevel=Lit+Request&lang=English&csel=null&catLevel=4&catOID=-24402&isPA=false&categoryPath=Catalogs%2fInformatics+%7c+Sadtler%2fCheminformatics%2fStructure+Drawing+and+Reporting+-+ChemWindow\nIt allows 2-D & 3-D presentations, drawing of laboratory installations, directly import IR, NMR, MS, and Raman spectra, and chromatograms, using common native file formats, recognizes stereochemistry and automatically specifies R/S centers and E/Z double bonds, etc, etc....\nIt's intuitive and easy to use even if it's the first time you see it.\nMain drawback.... it's not free ;)\n\nAnother good editor is Isis Draw. \nYou can download it from: www.mdli.com/downloads\nIt's free but you have to create first an account.\nAlso don't forget to take the IUPAC naming plugin (Autonom).

DNA = deriboneucleic acid\nRNA = riboneuclic acid\nRNA is present in each human cell in the lipoprotein (outside the cell) part. \nDNA is present in the neucleus of the cell. to be more specific, in the chromosomes inside the neucleus of the cell. so, it is only the DNA that carries the genetic property to the offsprings.\n\nas for your project, you can surely include it as a chapter.however make it sure that it is not too lengthy to dominate the main subject.\nyou can also include a chapter related to "clones and cloning". that could help you in showing it more clearly that its only the DNA that helps to transfer the genetic property to the young ones.\nif you need any further help in your project, you can contact me at \n\nmangeshome1982@yahoo.co.in\n\ngood luck.

How do I set up lab of 40 computers on 2 campuses located 5km apart?This is for a school project?\nEach lab should have 40 computers connected to a network. \n\nFirst I'm not a professional but since at the time I started this answer no one replied I'll offer what info I know.\n\n\nQ: Are these actually full functional computers like regular desktops or laptops or are they merely dummy terminals which send their requests through the main server ?\n\nIf they are terminals (dummies) then route them all through the main server which handles all the processing.\n\nIf they are individual computers then they each handle their own processing and only need server (and likely internet) access.\nDepending on your budget and preference, but you'll likely use ethernet to hardwire each desktop computer into the local network by using routers and or switches.\n\nA router is a device that can split one internet and or server feed [data to and from ] into many different computers. (Just like a wireless router except a normal router has wires).\nThe cable is called ethernet cable and it plugs into your nic card, aka network interface card.\n\nAllowing the computers from one lab to another lab for communications should be done over the internet.\n\nIf security and access are issues then you may want to route all lab computers to go through the main server which then contacts the other main server.\nThe servers can be setup to only allow access from certain machines/IP's, etc.\nThere are many software and hardware (firewalls for example) settings that help do this.\n\nAllowing students to access view of grades [or their projects] is handled easily enough by storing the grades/student info in a database. If you want students to only be able to view their own grades/records then give each student a password and login ID. If you allow any student to view any other student's info then they all can have the same login info/password.\n\nIf you want to allow students to be able to access this information via the net from any computer then it would fairly easy to make a website/web page using MYSQL and PHP to do this.\n\nYour PHP code would control what access the students have, if that's too difficult for you to learn how to do, or you don't have the budget to pay someone to do that (it's not very hard) then you could simply have separate databases one that only stores the 'viewable' grade for the students and not the actual grades used for the teachers. Then disallow student access.\n \nAs you can see there are many solutions to each problem so you really should think about this in more detail before you commit to any one solution.\n\nOne of the best and most common and inexpensive databases to use is MYSQL.\n\nSharing of work files is solved because you're on the local and remote network already.\n\nYou only really need to choose what means of file transfer you'll use.\nWhich software product or to use a built in method, depending on OS of choice.\n\n\nFor example Mac OS X has ftp, sftp SSH, and probably other means built in for file transferring, or remote login/control built in.\nAlso, OS X comes with the ability to be a web server via Apache, one of the most of the most widely used web serving software around.\n\nPersonally I'd stay away from running Windows or Linux. Windows because it's not very secure and Linux because it isn't very user friendly.\nMac OS X is built upon Unix which means it's completely reliable and professional grade. The Mac GUI (Graphic User Interface) is very user friendly while running Unix under the hood.\n\nIt doesn't sound like students should be able to access other students projects at all, or at least directly because this could lead to problems.\n(malicious students doing harm to other student projects, students copying/cheating from other students projects,etc.)\n\nOS X is a multiuser operating system where each user can setup his/her own accounts

Yes I have worked with RNA before. The main difficulty with all of the procedures is making sure you have gotten rid of the RNAses. They are very tough and stable, so you have to make sure everything has RNAse inhibitors (DEPC). I dont know enought about guinea fowl to know if they use similar polyA tails that humans, etc do. If not, the oligo-dT resin wouldnt have much to bind to. I dont know what your goal is but you could consider a PCR strategy to amplify what you are looking for. If you are looking for some tissue expression, you could look into buying premade mRNA from a company, which we used successfully before. hope that helps!

A Factory:\n\n*  The Nucleus is a filing cabinet\n*  The DNA in the nucleus is the documents in the filing cabinet\n*  The Mitochondria are the workers\n*  The cytosol is the components of what is being made around the factory.\n*  RNA is the photocopier that copies the documents from the filing cabinets.\n*  The ER is the workbench\n\nI'm sure there are other similarities, but I'm getting bored now\n*

Try to look up some of these journals:\n\nNature, Science, PNAS or Physical Review Letters
