You dilute your bacteriophage for plating 10^-6. You mix 0.1ml of the bacteriophage dilution with 0.3ml of bacteria and plate wi

th top agar. The next day you count your plaques. You get 46 pfu at this dilution. What is the final concentration (pfu/ml) of the phage stock?

Answer:

46 * 10^7 pfu/ml

Explanation:

Given -

Bacteriophage dilution = 0.1 ml

Volume of bacteria and plate with top agar  = 0.3 ml

Number of plaques = 46 pfu

Dilution (d) = 10^{-6}

Final concentration of phage stock is equal to

= \frac{pfu}{d*v}

Where pfu is the count of plaques

d is the dilution and v is the volume

Substituting the given values, we get -

\frac{46}{10^{-6} * 10^{-1}} \\= 46 * 10^7 pfu/ml

Answer:

Animal Waste and Fertilizers

Explanation:

Animals, like humans, obtain nitrogen from consuming foods. The foods that the animals consume get digested and with time, the animals release the extra undigested foods and nutrients in forms of urine and feces. Like wise, fertilizers are typically made with animal waste.

When a molecule of doubled stranded DNA undergoes replication, results in
likoan [24]
The process of DNA replication begins with one double-stranded molecule of DNA. The two strands of this molecule separate during replication, and DNA polymerases add complementary nucleotides to each strand. The end results of DNA replication are two identical DNA molecules

What similarities in flower structure are found among the plants in the rose family
emmainna [20.7K]

The rose family is a medium-sized family of flowering plants. The rose family (Rosaceae) is one of the major angiosperm families. The leaves are generally arranged spirally. Flowers of plants in the rose family are generally described as "showy". They are actinomorphic and almost always hermaphroditic.  Rosaceae generally have five sepals, and five petals. They also have many spirally arranged stamens. The bases of the sepals, petals, and stamens are fused together to form a  cup-like structure called a hypanthium. They can be arranged in racemes, spikes, or heads; solitary flowers are rare.

Why does synthetically produced RNase refold incorrectly if the reducing agent is removed before urea removal?
olya-2409 [2.1K]
<h2>Disulfide bonds interaction </h2>

Explanation:

  • The high concentration of urea causes unfolding of protein and thus results in loss of function of a protein. The urea interacts with the protein and prevents the folding of a protein.
  • During oxidation, the disulfide bonds that are required for proper functioning and stabilization of protein are formed, while in the presence of urea, the disulfide bonds are not positioned correctly. The protein oxidation results in covalent modification of a protein that results in the change of physical and chemical properties of a protein.
  • The change of physical and chemical properties of protein after oxidation and in the presence of urea cannot be modified even after the removal of urea. Thus, protein does not fold properly.
  • Hence the right answer is "disulfide bonds are not positioned correctly rather than week bonding interaction"
