Summary Introduction
To tell:
The ability of disinfectants and antiseptic in denaturing proteins and the effect of denaturation in killing of cells.
Introduction:
The term aseptic refers to condition completely devoid of microbes. The sterilization, disinfectant, sanitization, and radiation are some of physical and chemical methods used to get rid of microbes.

Osmium tetroxide can be used as a fixative as well as a negative stain in transmission electron microscopy. Two proteins; each tagged with their individual primary antibody followed by one protein with rhodamine conjugated secondary antibody and the other with fluorescein-conjugated secondary antibody can be visualized simultaneously using a fluorescence microscope. The emission spectrum of Rhodamine is 580 nm The emission spectrum of Fluorescein is 521 nm O An objective lens with 100X magnification and projection lens with 10X magnification is going to produce a 1000X total magnification.

- We’re back in the lab having fun! Our current experiment calls for us to treat our cells with THC (yeet!, delta 8 from hemp of course lol) and the final concentration of 15 µM once it has been added to the cells. We need to treat 10 mL of cells, and we don't want our treatment volume to be more than 10 µL per 1 mL of cells. What concentration should we make our stock solution?

How is it related to our need to stain bacterial cells? 2) Which of the following is the main goal when staining a culture? A) improve contrast B) identify bacteria C) Visualize bacterial structuresarrow_forwardThere are so many microbes in a single mL of culture, it is very difficult to perform one dilution to produce countable cells. Microbiologists need to perform a dilution series, where multiple dilutions are performed in sequence to arrive at the correct dilution. Dilutions are cumulative. Multiple the series of dilutions together to find the final dilution value. If 3 serial dilutions are performed, each with a value of 0.01, what is the cumulative dilution? Express your answer as an exponent, e.g. 0.1 would be 1e-1 and 0.01 would be 1e-2arrow_forward
