A bioreactor is the vessel in which biological reactions is carried out in controlled conditions. It is the process where microorganisms, plant cells or animal cells are allowed to grow and produce useful products. It is designed as a closed container in which temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO) and nutrient level is maintained with the … Read more
What is Microtome? A microtome is a laboratory device that is used for cutting very thin sections of different materials for microscopic examination. It is the instrument by which uniform slices are produced, and it is the process that helps the light or the electron to pass through the specimen so that the internal structures … Read more
Latex agglutination test is a simple serological test where antigen and antibody reaction is made visible on the surface of latex particles. It is the process in which latex beads are coated either with antigen or with antibody and when a sample containing the corresponding component is added, the beads is clumped together forming visible … 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
A spectrophotometer cuvette is a small optical cell that is used to hold the liquid sample during absorbance or transmittance measurement. It is usually made in a rectangular shape and two opposite sides are kept clear and highly polished so that the light beam can pass through the solution without scattering. It is the process … Read more
In Mounting technique, the specimen to be observed is held on a microscopic slide by using a coverslip.
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
What is Biological Clocks? Biological clocks are the internal timing system present in living organisms, and it is the process by which rhythmic changes occur in a regular pattern. It is an endogenous mechanism that runs for about 24 hours, and this rhythmic behaviour is referred to as circadian rhythm. The rhythm continues even in … Read more
What is Sphenodon? Sphenodon is the reptile that is commonly known as the tuatara, and it is the only living representative of the order Rhynchocephalia. It is the reptile that is found naturally in New Zealand, and it is considered a very old lineage that diverged from other reptiles in ancient geological time. The body … Read more
