L of Microscopes: 1. If you have a standard ocular lens of 10x what is the true magnification that you are looking at if you are using the 100x objective lens. What is the rule for focusing if you switch to the 40x lens? 2. Calculate the sizes of the following cells. Not all cells are viewed at 40x so use the following table to calculate the size of your cells. 4x 1 reticular unit = .025 mm 10x 1 reticular unit = .01 mm 40x 1 reticular unit-.0025 mm 4 points A) Cell 1 on 10x=8 reticular units B) Cell 2 on 40 x = 28 reticular units mm mm Which one is actually larger? Which one is probably the plant cell? Why?
In a monolayer of cultured epithelial cells, the cells may or may not have formed tight junctions. What experimental test could be used to determine it the cells have functional tight junction structures? Place a small dye (1 k Da in molecular weight) into the culture media of cells cultured on a glass coverslip and use live imaging to monitor whether the dye can penetrate into the O cytoplasm of the cells, as would be expected if the cells have functional tight junctions. Inject a cell with a small dye (<1 kDa in molecular weight) and use live cell imaging to track whether the dye moves into neighboring cells, as would be expected if the cells have functional O tight junctions.

In this problem, you will design a filter system for a flow cytometer. The four fluorescent dyes are FITC,PE, PE-TR,and PE-Cy5. Their emisison spectra are provided below. Detectors are arranged as shown in thefigure below. The FITC signal is detected from Filter 1, the PE signal from Filter 2, the PE-TR signal fromFilter 3 and the PE-Cy 5 signal from Filter 4. Part 4.1Provide a rationale for the order in which the filters are arranged with respect to the unfiltered signal. Part 4.2You are given 9 candidates from which you have to choose 4 for the filters in the diagram above. Choose4 and justify your selection.# Filter type WavelengthA Long pass 650 nmB Short pass 530 nmC Long pass 490 nmD Band pass 550-590 nmE Long pass 560 nmF Short pass 640 nmG Long pass 620 nmH Band pass 620-640 nmI Short pass 590 nm
