High Breaking Capacity
HBC Buffer, or HEPES-Buffered Saline, is used in biological and biochemical applications to maintain a stable pH during experiments. It provides a consistent environment for cellular processes by buffering against fluctuations in pH, particularly during cell culture or enzyme reactions. Additionally, HBC Buffer can help preserve the activity of proteins and other biomolecules, ensuring reliable experimental results.
An anti-HBc non-reactive result means that antibodies to the Hepatitis B core antigen were not detected in the blood sample. This could indicate either a past infection that has resolved or that the individual has never been exposed to the Hepatitis B virus.
HBC buffer, which typically contains components like high salt (e.g., sodium chloride) and a detergent, is used in DNA extraction protocols to facilitate the lysis of cells and the release of DNA. The high salt concentration helps to stabilize the DNA while the detergent breaks down cellular membranes and proteins. This combination enhances the efficiency of DNA precipitation and purification, allowing for the effective separation of DNA from proteins and other cellular debris. Ultimately, using HBC buffer contributes to obtaining high-quality DNA suitable for downstream applications.
Anti Hbs is a titer measuring antibodies to the hepatitis B surface antigen. Anti Hbs reactive means that you are immune to hepatitis B, either due to previous immunization or recovery from hepatitis B.
HBC (High Breaking Capacity, European term) and HRC (High Rupturing Capacity, North American term) fuses have the ability to break high fault currents. This is done by having silica sand in the fuse that the fuse elements travel through. On high fault current that sand will melt and turn to glass. This breaks the current flow immediatelyA cartridge fuse maximum current breaking capacity is very much lower than HRC, HBC because there is nothing in the fuse body except the fuse elements.
HBC kept control by controlling the trade routes, which brought a lot of money into the HBC.
Because HBC was the more powerful one, either way it's now called "The Bay."
the hbc had alot of hot women and the nwc thought if they merged witht he hbc thy could maybe have some sexy time
The initials HBC usually means, in Canada, the Hudson's Bay Company.
HBC (The Hudson's Bay Company) was founded in 1670 by King Charles II.

The HBC was founded on 2 May 1670 when King Charles granted a charter to his cousin Prince Rupert and his associates.
The HBC purchased furs from settlers and sold goods brought in via York Factory from the Atlantic. HBC also brought in goods from the Pacific. The HBC was the big block store of it's day.
