The fate of pyruvate is the different metabolic pathway in which pyruvate can enter after it is formed at the end of glycolysis. It is the process that depend on the presence or absence of oxygen in the cell environment. In aerobic condition, pyruvate is moved into the mitochondria where it is converted into Acetyl-CoA, … Read more
Agglutination Test is a serological test in which the antigen and antibody reaction is seen directly as visible clumping. It is the process where particulate antigen reacts with its homologous antibody and form aggregates called agglutinates. These aggregates can be seen with naked eyes. This reaction is specific because the antigen combines only with the … Read more
Industrial microbiology is the use of microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, and yeast for producing useful materials on a large scale. It is the process where these microbes are grown under controlled conditions so that they can convert raw materials into different products. It is the process mainly linked with fermentation and other bioconversion methods, and … Read more
Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms like bacteria, viruses, fungi and some parasites, and it is the field that explains how these organisms is involved in different biological and environmental activities. A career in microbiology is followed when a person study these microbes and work with them in laboratories or research centers. It is … Read more
Brucella is a genus of small Gram-negative coccobacilli. It is non-motile and non-spore forming, and it is the organism responsible for a zoonotic disease called brucellosis. It is the process where the bacteria survive as facultative intracellular parasite inside different host cells. These organisms are named after David Bruce and are placed under the family … Read more
Okazaki fragment is the short segment of DNA that is synthesized on the lagging strand during DNA replication. It is formed because the DNA polymerase can extend the new strand only in the 5’–3’ direction, so the strand that is oriented in the 3’–5’ direction is produced in a discontinuous manner. It is initiated by … Read more
A dihybrid crossing is a gene-cross between people who have homozygous or heterozygous genotypes that have two distinct characteristics or traits. Dihybrid crosses differ from the monohybrid crossing that only involves one genetic character or characteristic.
Post-transcriptional modification is a set of biological processes common to most eukaryotic cells by which an primary RNA transcript is chemically altered following transcription from a gene to produce a mature, functional RNA molecule that can then leave the nucleus and perform any of a variety of different functions in the cell.
What is Budding? Definition of Budding Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or “bud” on the parent organism, eventually detaching to live independently. Types of Budding I. Types of Biological Budding (Asexual Reproduction) II. Types of Horticultural Budding (Plant Grafting Techniques) 1. Budding in Plants … Read more
What is Polarizing Microscope? Principles of Polarized Light Microscopes The Light Path and Image Formation of Polarized Light Microscopes Parts of a Polarized Light Microscope 1. Light Source – usually a halogen bulb that gives bright white light; it must be stable so the color don’t change by heating or voltage drift. 2. Condenser – … Read more
