DECODE The Script of LIFE

   DNA Extraction of Blood The first step in molecular studies was to perform DNA extraction from the collected blood samples. For DNA extraction many different methods are used like manual method and through extraction kit. The DNA extraction from these samples was performed by using manual DNA extraction. Protocol for manual DNA extraction                                                                                                Day 1 1) The frozen blood is thaw at room temperature. 2) Take 200µl of blood in an eppendorf tube. Add 600µl of tris EDTA buffer in blood sample. 3) Mix the sample by inverting several times and then centrifuge it at 3000 rpm for 5 minutes. 4) Discard about 300 µl s...

  Although both are types of cell division and follow very similar steps, they consist of different processes: Mitosis Meiosis Cell divisions 1 2 Result 2 cells with the same genetic material. 4 cells with half the number of chromosomes as the initial cell. Function Asexual reproduction (unicellular), tissue growth and repair (multicellular). Sexual reproduction . Sperm and egg production. It occurs in Somatic cells. Germ (sex) cells. Organisms All. Humans, animals, plants and the fungi kingdom. Duration Short. Long.

Within the bustling microcosm of cells and body fluids, inorganic ions play their silent symphony. These charged particles, each with its unique role, orchestrate the dance of life. Let’s explore their significance: Hydrogen Ions (H+): These tiny warriors influence pH levels. Acidic solutions have higher H+ concentration, while alkaline solutions have fewer H+ ions. pH balance is crucial for enzyme activity, cellular processes, and overall health. Iron Ions (Fe2+ and Fe3+): Iron is the backbone of hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells. Hemoglobin binds oxygen, ensuring its transport throughout the body. Iron deficiency leads to anemia, affecting energy levels and overall well-being. Sodium Ions (Na+): Sodium ions are essential for co-transport. They work alongside glucose and amino acids, ensuring their efficient uptake by cells. Sodium-potassium pumps maintain cell membrane potential. Phosphate Ions (PO43-): Phosphates are building blocks of DNA and ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ...
