Here you will find a protocol and a PowerPoint presentation to perform a bacterial transformation in a lab. The protocol follows a line of biomedical research focusing on the study of a possible therapeutic target that could be recognised by a drug for atherosclerosis.
This experimental protocol is the ideal opportunity for you to reproduce an experiment exactly how it is done at...
Alzheimer's is a neurodegenerative disease that affects a person's mental abilities. The patient suffers progressive memory loss and is increasingly unable to perform even the most basic tasks. In the final stages of the disease, sufferers are confined to bed and depend entirely on the people around them. As yet, there is no cure for the disease.
With this experimental protocol,...
By following this protocol, you can take part in research to develop a vaccine that could be used to protect us from HIV and to help people who are already infected. You will analyse different variants of HIV and a real vaccine candidate from an AIDS research centre using a technique called electrophoresis. You will study whether the vaccine candidate would work against all variants of HIV....
By following this protocol, you can take part in research to develop a vaccine against malaria that, when combined with current measures, could significantly improve the control of this major parasitic disease. You will test several potential vaccines using a technique called ELISA and decide which is the most effective.
This experimental protocol is the ideal opportunity for you...
Family history plays a very important role in the predisposition to obesity (and type 2 diabetes). Scientists base their research on the comparison between the DNA of obese and diabetic people with the DNA of healthy individuals; to do this, they need to extract the DNA from the cells. With this protocol, you can extract DNA from your cells quickly and easily.
By following this protocol, you can take part in the synthesis of a drug being studied as a potential treatment for Parkinson's disease. Afterwards, you will analyse the resulting product.
This experimental protocol is the ideal opportunity for you to reproduce an experiment exactly how it is done at research centres. You can do it at one of the research centres and museums that...
