Mara, One of the hardest things to do in science is to put things in terms that are simple enough for the lay population to understand, let me try my best here to do just that. In a general sense
1) Stanford, UCLA, John-Hopkins are all incredibly difficult to get into as they are some of the top research institutions in the world. Im not sure about Brandeis or Boston but Id assume they are highly
Suvagata, There is a very nice wikipedia page on salting out and the use of NaCl. The salt take proteins but not DNA out of the mix so that you are left with just DNA. Protein solubility depends upon
1. Proteins are extracted at varying salt concentrations. A nice wikipedia page on this. A positive K describes salting out and a negative K value describes salting in. 2. So that the different tissues
Ena, I am a graduate student in Molecular and Cellular Physiology. We study cell processes, gene expression, and other things that happen at or below the cellular level in biological organisms. The
