Why do we add fetal bovine serum to cell culture media? (2-3 paragraphs)
Fetal bovine serum is the most widely used serum-supplement for the in vitro cell culture of eukaryotic cells.
This is due to it having a very low level of antibiotics and containing more growth factors,allowing for versatility in many different cell culture applications.A cardiac punture is performed on a cow's fetus during slaughter,the blood refrigerated so that it will clot
FBS contains a variety of small molecules like aminoacids,sugers,lipids and hormones.It provides many essential nutrients and growth factors that faccilitate cell survival and proliferation.Bovine serum albumin is the major component of FBS.FBS is the liquid fraction of clotted blood from fetal claves,depleted of cells,fibrin and clotting factors,but containing a large number of nutritional and macromolecular factors essential for cell growth.In addition fetal serum contains lower levels of complement proteins than those from adults or newborns.These complements have the undesiarable effects of lysing cells in culture and interfering with immunoassays.The rich variety of proteins in fetal bovine serum maintains cultured cells in a medium in which they can survive,grow,and divide

please help solve this and show all work clearly, thanks 6. The recipe for cell culture media is: 10 % serum, 1x antibiotics and 2 mM Glutamine in basal media. You are given the following stock solutions: • Basal media • Serum 100% • Antibiotics 100x solution Glutamine 200 mm How will you prepare the 500 mls of media? (2 point) (Note: A 100X solution is 100 times more concentrated than the concentration required in the final solution. For example...
• Why is partisan media controversial? In three paragraphs, explain why some argue that partisan media will not be as harmful as critics of partisan media claim (paragraph 1), why others believe that partisan media is harming American politics (paragraph 2), and what you believe and why (paragraph 3).

In 2's Complemtary, why do we inverse then add 1 to switch the sign of the number?
1. Why do you dilute the fibroblasts in trypan blue before counting them? What will the trypan blue tell you about the cells? 2. Why do you add trypsin to the fibroblasts in the culture dish? How does trypsin do this? 3. You have counted the 4 corner squares of a hemocytometer grid (each square is 1mm2 and the distance of the coverslip above the squares is 0.1mm) and have come up with a total cell count of 243 cells.

Write 3 - 4 paragraphs about a time when communicating with someone from a different culture (for example, while traveling) was difficult. Why was it difficult? How did you cope? Were you able to get your message across? Why or why not? Edit: Got some help already, please don't answer the question so that it will refund it back to me
You have a stock of an E. coli cell culture of an unknown concentration. You want to set up a serial dilution experiment so that you can count the viable colonies and determine the concentration of the stock in cells/ml. In tube A, you add 1 ml of the stock to 999 ml of media. In tube B, you add 1 ml of the material from tube A to 24 ml of media. In tube C, you add 50 microliters...

Humidity is typically >95%? •Why use ethanol to sterilize equipment? •Why use iodine and methylene blue to stain plant and human cell, respectively? 2)Describe in detail about how to prepare low, medium and high density cultures. Show steps by steps calculation.
help please 2. Why do we see that each cell is only expressing a small fraction of the genes in it's genome at any given time?
