Python Extensions for Dealing with Data

Data science has undisputedly become the most exciting field of science. It creates a systematic balance among quantitative skills, advanced statistics, and real-world programming aptitude to execute its essence. Although data science is a multidisciplinary field, computer science expertise – blended with mathematics, statistics, analytics, and business intelligence – remains the icing to this day. […]

Python Programming Made Easy

Language is the foundation of everything, no matter how fascinating or basic the undertaking is. Everything in this world is driven by a language. Similarly, at the base of technological advancement that we all have been witness to, lies a set of different programming languages. But what is a programming language? To put it simply, […]

Bright Field Microscopy

Need Microscopes for your Lab? Click here Introduction Microscopy is used to visualize objects that are too small to see with the naked eye. In biology, this technique enables us to examine things like bacteria and cells at a magnification of up to 10000 times their original size (BIO1000F practical manual, 2017). In light microscopy, […]

Ultracentrifugation Basics and Applications

Need Centrifuges for your lab? Click here Introduction Ultracentrifugation is a specialized technique used to spin samples at exceptionally high speeds. Current ultracentrifuges can spin to as much as 150 000 rotations per minute (rpm) (equivalent to 1 000 000 g) (Biocompare, 2019b). However, extreme centrifugal forces may cause overheating, so to avoid sample damage, […]

Spin-Spin coupling in NMR

Need NMR Instruments for your lab? Click here The structure of a molecule can be predicted using NMR spectroscopy. However, the interpretation of the signals in an NMR spectrum relies on several factors. One of the factors affecting the location of the peaks in an NMR spectrum is Chemical shift.  The location of the peaks […]

Histochemical techniques to demonstrate Carbohydrates-Polysaccharides

Introduction Carbohydrates are the most abundant and one of the four essential macromolecules, required for the survival of living beings. Structurally, these are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones. Carbohydrates are divided into three classes depending upon the number of forming units (aldehyde or ketone), which are monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. These carbohydrates have extensive roles to […]

Here, we will discuss the histochemical methods used to demonstrate the acidic components of the cell […]

Made for Spinning: The Centrifuge

Centrifuges – What Are They? Technically, any device that applies centrifugal force to objects by rotating them around a central axis might be called a centrifuge. Centrifuges are devices that apply high-speed spinning to objects, liquid or gas samples, to separate their individual components. Centrifuges contain a rotor where tubes with the samples can be […]
