1. What is a sterile technique and why is it so important in animal cell culture?
2. Explain the rationale for adding pen/strep to DMEM?
3. What is the difference between an inverted and upright light microscope? Gibe an example of when you would use either?
1) Sterile technique means keeping the cells free from contamination by microorganisms such as bacterial, fungi, and viruses.
It is used to proved barrier between the microorganisms in the environment and the sterile cell culture, depends upon a set of procedures to reduce the probability of contamination from these source.
2) The penicillin or steptomycin is added into DMEM because of long history of using these antibiotics and we'll characterized effect in almost all cell culture.
3) upright microscope move stage for focusing ( unless fixed stage and inverted move objective for focusing.
Upright the optical path is simpler and inverted better access for live cells in culture.
Upright is easier for immersion ( long working distance) and inverted harder for oil, water immersion.
Examples: upright microscope is used for phase contrast or widefield fluorescence microscopy of living cells or samples that are squeezed between a slide and coverslip, the material which are sterile are examined under inverted microscope.

1) What is the approx saline concentration of an animal red blood cell? 2) By what process does water move across a cell membrane & does this process require cellular energy? 3) Would you predict a red blood cell placed in a 5.00% saline solution to crenate, lyse, or stay normal? Explain why. What about a red blood cell placed in a 0.10% solution? 4) Why would 2 test tubes with 0.50% saline and 0.05% saline each, become clear after...

Which culture should be able to survive the longest exposure to UV (SA or BS)? Why? 7. Do you expect to see a difference between the growth on the side of the plate that was under the index card and the side that was open? If so, explain what you expect to see. 8. Some cells have a means of protecting themselves against radiation. Can you name a few structures that might help protect a cell from UV light?
why is fiber so important in the diet? what is the difference between soluble and insoluble fiber ? explain why someone with a risk of heart disease might want to increase their fiber intake .
1. Fill out the following table by indicating which general technique (light microscopy (LM) or electron microscopy [EM]) could be used to observe each structure or phenomenon. Put "no" in the box if the technique could not be used. If light microscopy can be used, name one technique (bright-field, phase-contrast, fluorescence, etc.) that you think would be effective. You will find some useful information in Appendix 1 of this manual and Chapter 18 of your textbook. Structure or phenomenon Could...
