San Mateo Biotechnology Career Pathwaywww.SMBiotech.com Giving motivated teenagers and adults the skills to pursue several career and academic options.
Biotechnology is an opportunity to teach science in a way that results in science literacy & research skills & career awareness for virtually every student. • Students learn the skills and gain the confidence and self-directedness that are necessary for independent research(science fair projects) and higher-level science courses. • Students see meaning and application in their math, biology and chemistry. • Students learn the science and business of biotech so that they are better prepared to make decisions about their futures and society.
The HRP Activities are found in Chapter 6 • Text - Chapter 6 and 14 • Lab Manual - Labs 6f-6h, 14a • Student CD Tutorials for basic skills • Course Planner/Instructor’s Guide
Biotech 3 HRP labs: • Peroxidase Assay • HRP extraction from HR Root • HRP assay using PAGE • HRP assay w/ TMB indicator • HRP used in ELISAs
How Do You Make the Phosphate Buffer? You need 100 mL of a 25 mM NaH2PO4 * H20, pH 7 buffer. conc. desired X volume desired X molecular weight = amount of solute in mol/L in L in g/mol in g Convert 25 mM = 0.025 mM and convert 100 mL = 0.1 L 0.025 mol/L X 0.1 L X 138 g/mol = 0.345 g NaH2PO4 * H20 0.345 g of NaH2PO4 * H20 is measured measured on a balance and put into an appropriate vessel. Then, solvent is added up to the 100 mL graduation. 100 mL Adjust pH to 7 and add dH20 to 100 mL add solvent (dH20) to 75 mL 0.345 g NaH2PO4 * H20
