They used E. coli or Escherichia coli in their experiments
Hershey and Chase significantly advanced our understanding of genetics through their famous 1952 experiment using bacteriophages, which are viruses that infect bacteria. They demonstrated that DNA, and not protein, is the genetic material by showing that only the DNA from the phages entered bacterial cells and directed the production of new viruses. This finding provided crucial evidence supporting the role of DNA in heredity, laying the groundwork for molecular genetics and our understanding of how traits are passed from one generation to the next. Their work helped clarify the molecular basis of genetic inheritance and the importance of DNA in living organisms.
Hershey and Chase's experiments in 1952 provided evidence that DNA, not protein, is the genetic material in bacteriophages. They used radioactive isotopes to track the transmission of DNA and protein from the phage to the bacteria during infection, showing that it was the DNA that carried the genetic information.
Chase Daniel was born on October 7, 1986.
Isaac Chase Mill was created in 1852.
You can apply for a Chase Platinum card through one of their stores (they have a ton of Chase stores in the U.S.). You are going to have to have a high credit score in order to have a Chase platinum card, normally a credit score of 700.
They showed that DNA carries genetic material.

Simply put, DNA is the genetic material, not protein. At that time no one was quite sure which was which. A clever experiment by Hersey and Chase settled this question. Google that experiment.
Martha Chase died on August 8, 1947 in her home in Massachusetts from a cerebral hemorrhage. She was 71 years old at the time of her death.
The scientists Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase conducted a series of experiments at the Carnegie Institute of Washington in 1952, and concluded that the genetic material of a bacteriophage was DNA.

Phosphorous in not found in any amino acid, the building blocks of protein. ( sulfur is not found in DNA, which lead to and elegant experiment with isotopes of these elements and the differentiation of them, one being the genetic material-Hersey and Chase )
They showed that DNA carries genetic information.
They showed that DNA contains genetic information.
