Buffer Effectiveness02:19

Buffer Effectiveness

55.2K
Buffer solutions do not have an unlimited capacity to keep the pH relatively constant . Instead, the ability of a buffer solution to resist changes in pH relies on the presence of appreciable amounts of its conjugate weak acid-base pair. When enough strong acid or base is added to substantially lower the concentration of either member of the buffer pair, the buffering action within the solution is compromised.
The buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base that can be added to a given volume...

Biological Effects of Radiation

17.9K
All radioactive nuclides emit high-energy particles or electromagnetic waves. When this radiation encounters living cells, it can cause heating, break chemical bonds, or ionize molecules. The most serious biological damage results when these radioactive emissions fragment or ionize molecules. For example, α and β particles emitted from nuclear decay reactions possess much higher energies than ordinary chemical bond energies. When these particles strike and penetrate matter, they...

Ribosome Profiling02:24

Ribosome Profiling

4.2K
Ribosome profiling or ribo-sequencing is a deep sequencing technique that produces a snapshot of active translation in a cell. It selectively sequences the mRNAs protected by ribosomes to get an insight into a cell’s translation landscape at any given point in time.
Applications of ribosome profiling
Ribosome profiling has many applications, including in vivo monitoring of translation inside a particular organ or tissue type and quantifying new protein synthesis levels.
The technique...

Framing Effects

7.9K
Information is everywhere and its presentation—such as how and when items are presented—can impact our perceptions and decisions surrounding the info. This broad concept umbrellas framing effects—influences that occur due to the way information is framed in its appearance, whether it’s purely the order or the specific wording of a message. Let’s take a look at numerous ways in which two versions of something can objectively say the same thing, yet we respond in...

Production Efficiency01:01

Production Efficiency

18.3K
Net production efficiency (NPE) is the efficiency at which organisms assimilate energy into biomass for the next trophic level. Due to low metabolic rates and less energy spent on thermoregulatory processes, the NPE of ectotherms (cold-blooded animals) is 10 times higher than endotherms (warm-blooded animals).

Trophic Efficiency00:46

Trophic Efficiency

25.2K
Trophic level transfer efficiency (TLTE) is a measure of the total energy transfer from one trophic level to the next. Due to extensive energy loss as metabolic heat, an average of only 10% of the original energy obtained is passed on to the next level. This pattern of energy loss severely limits the possible number of trophic levels in a food chain.

Area of Science:

  • Forensic Science
  • Molecular Biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Human identification is crucial in forensic science for criminal cases and paternity disputes.
  • Short Tandem Repeat (STR) markers are a reliable DNA profiling technique.
  • Current identification methods can be time-consuming and may lead to errors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel human identification system using DNA fingerprinting.
  • To create a unique molecular signature for individuals in the form of a barcode.
  • To establish the Human Identification Barcode System (HIBS) for enhanced identification.

Main Methods:

  • DNA was isolated from blood samples.
  • Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique was used to detect DNA bands.
  • A self-designed system was employed to generate a human barcode.
  • A web-based application, HIBS (www.hibs.com.pk), was developed for barcode storage and access.

Main Results:

  • A functional Human Identification Barcode System (HIBS) was successfully developed.
  • The system generates a unique DNA barcode for each individual.
  • HIBS can be accessed online and integrated with identification procedures.

Conclusions:

  • HIBS provides a unique molecular signature for human identification.
  • The system has potential applications in forensic science, security checkpoints, and exonerating wrongly accused individuals.
  • HIBS offers a secure and efficient alternative to conventional identification methods.
