When you bathe your cells are exposed to soap and detergent. Explain why your body reacts differently to the soap and detergent than the organisms observed in this activity.?
Body cells on surface are covered with keratin like materials. Those layers protects the cells
What does SDS do to cells?
SDS (Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate) solution is an anionic detergent. Detergents dissolve lipid.
Role of Triton x-100 in DNA extraction?
it iS A ionic detergent disrupts bonds between lipids and fosters the isolation of DNA....
What part of the membrane does detergent effect?
Detergent effects the phosopholipid bi-layer. Because it is lipophilic, it emulsifies the bi-layer, causing it to form miscelles. As a result, it is disrupted, and therefore anything inside of the cell can leak out. (eg. betacynin in beetroot cells)
What is the function of liquid detergent in extracting DNA?
It helps break the nuclear membrane of the cell. Detergent containing the compound SDS ( sodiumdodecyl sulfate) is used to break down and emulsify the fat and proteins that make up a cell membrane.
How does the smashing of strawberries effect its cells?
What is general welfare
What is the function of sodium deoxycholate in media?
To act as a biological detergent that lyses cells. To act as a biological detergent that lyses cells.

What is the use of sarkosyl in DNA isolation?
it is SDS like detergent added at to lyse cells
How do you send plasmids to cell?
Herat shock and treating the cells with CaCl2
What common biological characteristics exist between Ecoil yeast and strawberries that allows DNA extraction?
E. coli and strawberries both contain cells that have DNA, so the DNA can be extracted.
What does SDS do to cells?
SDS (Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate) solution is an anionic detergent. Detergents dissolve lipid.
Why does Treating dissociated cells with certain antibodies makes the cells unable to reaggregate?
The antibodies bind to cell adhesion proteins called cadherins.
Why is detergent added to the extraction buffer?
The detergent was added because it breaks open the cells by destroying fatty membranes that enclose the cell, thus releasing the DNA into the solution.
What vitamins do strawberries have?
Strawberries are very high in vitamin C and fiber. Strawberries are also a great source of antioxidents which have shown to play a role in fighting free radicals (cancer causing cells.)
