Summer Research Fellowship by IAS

Hi,
This is semester exam time! All the very best for the people who are gonna write their exams.
Are you interested very much in science? Looking for a fellowship? This is exclusively for Indian students - not for foreign students! (Sorry).



This is not only for biology students, but, also for Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Engineering and earth and planetary science students.

Then, this is a great chance for you. Apply for the Indian Academy of Sciences  (IAS)- Summer Research Fellowship Programme  - You could find all the details "here"

You could Register here and the recommendation letter format could be found  here !

This is for both students and teachers. While registering online, you might get doubts like, "where to select the list of guides" -

The list of guides is provided in the application form - as detail number "14"
Scroll down the application, you could find the link for selecting the guides. You can check the details like specialization of the guide, availability of accommodation etc.,

You are allowed to choose a maximum of 6 guides.

I hope this fellowship would be very useful for a successful research career. Apply soon,

The last date for applying  is December 31st. 

Any doubts? queries? Kindly comment, I'm happy to help you.

Have a great day! Bye!

* This post is written just for making the students aware of the fellowship.

Lowry Assay Principle and procedure

Though there are several protein assays available, the most preferred one in many laboratories is "Lowry assay". It is effective in the concentration range of 0.01 mg/ml to 1 mg/ml. And, as an additional info, the paper published describing the procedure and principle of Lowry Assay is the most cited paper in the scientific history. (Feeling like, "Wow! I want to publish one to compete with Oliver.H. Lowry"???  :P) Why Lowry?   Though there are several other protein assays, mostly Lowry assay is used in many laboratories. The reasons for preferring Lowry are: sensitivity of the assay, highly reproducible, cost effective, easy to perform. Biuret assay is generally used for higher protein concentrations like tissue samples but, Lowry for less concentrated samples and hence used in most of the molecular biology laboratories where there will be need for assaying comparatively less concentrated protein samples (in most cases where we attempt to produce enzymes).

Fire in the lab!!! BE CAREFUL!!!! A Lesson learnt!

   That day, we were working in our lab under laminar air flow chamber. we were streaking our plates with E.coli. For sterilizing the loop, we were using 70% ethanol. We also sterilized the L rod which we used for spreading , using the same Ethanol.  One by one, we started streaking and spreading. I completed my turn, and sterilized the L rod by dipping in ethanol once and shown in flame, and placed it in a tray.Mam instructed, " Ethanol will catch fire , if you place the hot rod over it" . One of my friend, did spreading after my turn, she too dipped the rod in ethanol, flamed the rod and instead of placing in the tray she misplaced the hot rod in the ethanol plate!!!! " oooo... fire fire..." immediately ethanol caught fire..!!! My friend who misplaced., she started crying... Mam shouted, " hey girls, guys run out of the lab...," as the tube which carries LPG for the flame was very close to fire. Suddenly, our lab technician acte...

Galaataa at Chemical engg lab!!! :D :D Bang!!!

Venturi meter  Oooo.. Pipes, Flows, Fluid flow rate... A different class of chemical engineering, which i never expected in Biotechnology. Thought that mechanical guys alone read on & deal on this thermodynamics!!! But, I too dealt with this thermodynamics. The chemical engineering lab which includes exercises like, 1) Venturi meter 2) Orifice Meter 3) Rota meter 4) Packed bed 5) Fluidised bed... The list goes on and ends with number 14! But, I do remember only these topics. Completed with the exercise, " FLUID FLOW THROUGH A STRAIGHT CIRCULAR PIPE " in the last lab on thursday!. Here we go with that lab experience.  Noted the reading from manometer and stop clock successfully with my two batch mates! Some data we searched for calculation : 1) Density of Mercury : 13,600 Kg/m^3  2) Viscosity of Water  : 0.001 Kg/(m-s) 3) We were in need of the area of the collecting tank .... A terrible attempt by me, for measuring the width & breadth. ...
