Calculate the transformation efficiency for 105 transformants per ug of DNA if the final recovery volume of the cells was 0.50 ml and the volume plated is 0.10 ml. The quantity of DNA used was approximately 0.025 ug. Determine the transformation efficiency using the formula: Number of transformants ug of DNA O 2,100 O 6,600 O 4.400 8,800 O 88,000 X final vol at recovery (ml) vol plated (ml) = Number of transformants per ug

Although there are accurate graphical methods available for determining Vmax and Km of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, sometimes these parameters can be quickly estimated by examining the values of Vo as [S] increases. Estimate the values of Vmax and Km of the reaction catalyzed by an enzyme in which the following data were obtained:
Q27 A 10-1 is performed on a culture of bacteria in order to perform viable plate counts. From the dilution, *0.1 mL* of solution is plated on solid media, and 265 colonies of bacteria grow on the plate. Assuming each colony came from a single bacterium, how many bacteria are in a single mL of the original culture? Express your answer as a whole number. Since only 0.1 mL is put on the plate, this counts as an extra dilution!!! Any time less than 1 mL is transfered, a dilution is being performed. Any time more than 1 mL is transfered, a concentration is being performed.
b) Adsorption of N₂ on TiO, was carried out at 75K. A plot of Z/(1-Z)V versus Z (Z-P/P°) gives a straight line with an intercept 4 x 10 mm and slope 1 x 10 mm.

In order to improve the peptide separation by using a HPLC system, trifluoroacetic acid acts as mobile-phase modifier was added during the preparation of mobile phase. The preparation was performed by a postgraduate student as following:“2.851 g trifluoroacetic acid (MW: 114.02 g/mol) was made up to 500 cm3 in a graduated flask. To this solution, 50 cm3 of ethanol was added, and after mixing the mobile phase was placed in the solvent reservoir and pumping was commenced at 1.5 cm3 min-1.”Based on the given preparation procedure, identify THREE mistakes that were made.
22-30. (a) The mean free path is the average distance a molecule travels before colliding with another molecule. The mean free path, A, is given by A = kT/(V20P), where k is Boltzmann’s constant, T is temperature (K), P is pressure (Pa), and o is the collision cross section. For a molecule with a diameter d, the col- lision cross section is nd. The collision cross section is the area swept out by the molecule within which it will strike any other molecule it encounters. The magnetic sector mass spectrometer is maintained at a pressure of ~103 Pa so that ions do not collide with (and deflect) one another as they travel through the mass analyzer. What is the mean free path of a molecule with a diam- eter of 1 nm at 300 K in the mass analyzer?

Dr. Alghe has just performed a restriction digest on DNA she extracted from her samples. She must now run her DNA out on a gel to separate the fragments based on size. To do this she must prepare a 1.2% agarose gel, where the percentage is determined as mass/vol. How many grams of agarose must she add to 200 mL of buffer in order to arrive at the correct percentage?

כטן ε БӘЛ (b) Adsorption of a solute can take place from the liquid surface to a solid surface when the solution is treated with a solid. Assuming that the solute adsorbs strongly compared to the solvent, sketch comparative qualitative plots of x/m (amount adsorbed /g) vs C (concentration in solution) for the individual adsorption of ethyl, n- propyl and n-butyl alcohols from an aqueous solution to a hydrophilic silica sample. Give suitable explanation for the plots. (2)
