Isolation of Genomic DNA
Bio Genetics 3166
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other
organisms.The process of isolating DNA is the act of purifying the genetic material. During the process of isolating DNA; DNA is separated from proteins, membranes, and other cellular material contained in the cell from which it is recovered.
Drosophila Melanogaster Molecular Genetics Lab
​Bio Genetics 3166
In this experiment, we used the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and gel electrophoresis to identify the genotypes of a white eye female x wild type male, a wild type male x wild type female, and white eye female x vestigial male. This experiment linked the genotype and phenotype, reinforcing the connection between classic and molecular genetics
Thin Layer Chromatography of Analgesics Drugs
CHE 2230 Organic Chemistry I
The purpose of this experiment was to identify an unknown proprietary drug using thin layer chromatography. The unknown’s behavior in thin-layer chromatography will be compared with that of its possible component analgesics. The possible unknowns and their analgesics ingredients will be caffeine, aspirin, acetaminophen, and ibuprofen
