Osmosis Abstract Methods and ResultsMethodsKnots were tied in 5 different strips of dialysis tubing in order to close off one end, afterwhich between 15 and 20 ml of distilled water was poured into one of the tubes. A knot was thentied on the othyr end of the tube in order to seal the distilled water in. This process was repeatedfor the other four tubes but varying concentrations of sucrose solution (0.2M, 0.4M, 0.6M, and0.8M) were each poured into different tubes instead of distilled water. The mass of cach filledtube was determined and then submerged in separate containers of distilled water. Each sealedtube was left in the distilled water for 25 minutes before being removed and massed.ResultsTable 1 Mass of sucrose solutions before and after being submerged in distilled waterInitial Sucrose ConcentrationOM (distilled water)Mass before (g)Mass after (g)20.120.10.2 M13.214.70.4 M14.216.20.6 M0.8 M17.120.520.928.0

Osmosis Abstract Methods and Results
Methods
Knots were tied in 5 different strips of dialysis tubing in order to close off one end, after
which between 15 and 20 ml of distilled water was poured into one of the tubes. A knot was then
tied on the othyr end of the tube in order to seal the distilled water in. This process was repeated
for the other four tubes but varying concentrations of sucrose solution (0.2M, 0.4M, 0.6M, and
0.8M) were each poured into different tubes instead of distilled water. The mass of cach filled
tube was determined and then submerged in separate containers of distilled water. Each sealed
tube was left in the distilled water for 25 minutes before being removed and massed.

EXPERIMENT: CRYOPRESERVATION OF CULTURED CELL LINES Procedure for Cryopreserving MCF-7 and THP-1 Cells• Ensure that the culture is up to the late log phase (assumption is made based on the cell concentration). Prepare the cell suspension and determine the cell concentration.• Dilute the cell suspension in 1:1 ratio with freezing medium (final concentration approximately 1 X 106 – 1 X 107cells/ml is desired). • Dispense the cell suspension into prelabeled cryovial and place the vial in -80°C freezer overnight (temporary storage).• Transfer the cryovial into liquid nitrogen cryotank for long term storage the following day.• After day 3, determine the cell concentration in the freezing medium andcompare with that of the stock concentration.
