TRUE OF FALSE: Is E coli colonies colorless in Eosin Methylene BlueAgar (EMBA)? Coliform colonies colorless in Eosin Methylene BlueAgar (EMBA)?
Which of the following is TRUE about immunofluorescence microscopy where we localize proteins using fluorescently tagged antibodies? Pick the best answer: We can use it to resolve 2 points that are 10 nanometers apart. The emission wavelength of the fluorophore is typically shorter than the excitation wavelength. The resolution can be further improved with increased magnification. All else being equal, a fluorophore that emits red light will give better resolution than a fluorophore that emits green light. Based on what we discussed in class, we can use the technique on live samples therefore enabling us to see the dynamic movement of cytosolic proteins in living cells. None of the above
