COMPUTATIONAL TRUE OR FALSE
Milk sample A contained an average of 53 cells per FOV at a dilution factor of 7 whereas Milk sample B contained an average of 99 cells per FOV at a dilution factor of 5. Therefore, milk sample A has less microbial contamination. (Note: 0.01mL of each sample was placed on a clean glass slide and both samples were examined under OIO with an area of 1.77x10-4 cm2.)
What are the differences among native gel electrophoresis, SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing, isotachophoresis, 2-D gel electrophoresis, and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis in terms of denaturants used, pH and electrolyte content, and application of electric field gradient?
Explain the principle of the isoelectric focusing electrophoresis method and what it is used for.
