Unit 10 It is in the DNATEACHER: Good morning. Today we’ll talk about an important topic in biology--DNA and DNA testing. Can anybody tell us what DNA stands for?STUDENT 1: deoxyribonucleic acid...TEACHER: Right. It’s the molecule that carries genetic information in all living cells. Now first, we’ll look at what DNA is and when it was discovered. Then, we’ll look at DNA testing and several applications, or uses of testing. This is an exciting topic for biologists because the more we learn about DNA, the more we see how science may change our lives--from healthcare to our relationships. OK, what does DNA look like?STUDENT 1: It looks like two strings, kind of wrapping around each other.TEACHER: Yes, exactly. There’s a simple drawing of one in your book. As you can see, a molecule of DNA consists of two strands of chemical compounds arranged in a twisted pattern. Inside the human cell are chromosomes. The DNA is organized in twenty-three pairs of chromosomes in the cell. Genes are arranged on the chromosomes and these carry fundamental genetic information like hair color, eye color, or characteristics that aren’t as visible, such as intelligence, and a lot more.Scientists have been studying DNA for a long time. First, in 1860, Gregor Mendel made two important discoveries: tiny particles he called genes, and, that genes carry information from cell to cell. Now this was really the beginning. Then, in 1953, J. D. Watson and Francis Crick discovered and described the DNA structure. Their work was so important that they received the Nobel Prize in 1962. For the first time, scientists could understand exactly how DNA tells the cells what to do. This generated more DNA research, and by the end of the twentieth century, scientists made other important discoveries. Probably the most important work was the Human Genome Project. The goal of the Human Genome Project was to complete the first reading of the human genome, the complete set of human DNA. Uh, this was a huge job, but after ten long years in June, 2000, the head of the Project announced that they had identified the complete set of human genes. Uh, this was a huge deal. Most people saw this as the beginning of a whole new era in DNA research. Scientists could read all of the genetic messages in the human body! This is, of course, a very brief history of the study of DNA.All right, let’s consider DNA testing. One important use of DNA testing is testing identity, which is also called DNA fingerprinting. Here’s how a DNA fingerprint is done. Scientists take a small sample of someone’s hair or skin, which contain DNA. Next, they treat the sample with chemicals and make a film, like a small photograph. On this film there is a visible pattern of black bars. This pattern of black bars is unique for each person. So, a DNA sample from your hair identifies you, it’s, it’s like your fingerprint; it identifies you and you only. I see a question. Miguel? STUDENT 2: Does the DNA from hair or skin or blood all look the same?TEACHER: No, not exactly. The DNA from your hair will look like hair DNA but it will be uniquely your DNA pattern. It’s sort of like all noses look like noses, right? But your nose looks like your nose only.Now I want to look at two applications, or uses, of DNA testing. First, how it can be used by doctors, and second, how it can be used by the police. Within health-care, one important use is to identify potential for health problems. Researchers have found some genes linked to specific diseases. For example, Huntington’s disease is linked to a defect in chromosome 4, andAlzheimer’s disease is linked to a defect in chromosome 19. A genetic link means that doctors know that if someone has defects in these genes, they’re more likely to get these health problems; their potential is increased. Notice, I didn’t say “Researchers have found that some gene defects cause specific diseases.” There is simply a link.After doctors perform DNA testing, they can then decide the best way to use the information. For example, they may give medication to a patient to prevent a disease from ever starting. Genetic testing can also be used to decide which medicine to give someone. This is called targeted medicine. To me, this is very exciting and promising. There are tiny differences in DNA from person to person. These differences can affect which patients will be helped by a drug, and who may be harmed by it. This is, uh, a tremendous advantage. It saves lives and money.Now, let’s look at how DNA testing is used by police. The police can use DNA fingerprints to identify and trace criminals. All they need is a small amount, or trace, of blood or hair from the crime scene. If the DNA samples from the crime scene and the suspect match, the results, at least in the United States, can be used as evidence in court. So, DNA testing can be used to help put someone in prison. In much the same way, DNA testing can be used to help innocent people in prison. People in prison can now try to use DNA testing for crimes that happened, say, ten years ago. If their DNA fingerprint doesn’t match the DNA fingerprint from the crime scene, this can help them get a new trial and perhaps get them out of prison.As you can see, there are benefits to DNA testing. However, there are also some concerns that this type of information might be used against us in the future.Now let’s consider how DNA testing could be used against you. What if a company you wanted to work for asked you to take a DNA test? And what if your DNA test showed that you had a gene defect linked to a certain type of cancer? Would the company decide not to hire you? People also worry about health insurance. They’re afraid they might not be able to get health insurance if their DNA test shows they’re at a higher risk for certain diseases. As a result, in the United States, some laws have been passed to protect the privacy of medical records. Now DNA testing has other possibilities that we won’t discuss today. But in any case, many people think about the negative uses of testing--the fear that it will be used against people or to create “perfect” babies. Others think about police being able to trace criminals and possible advances in healthcare. But, another way to think about it is that it tells us more about who we are, and that’s the goal of biology--to understand nature.I guess I’ll stop there for today. In the next class, I want to talk in more depth about uses of DNA testing by doctors. OK, we’ll start there next time. That’s, uh, that’s all for today.。

有关人类基因组计划的小故事英文回答:I remember when I first learned about the Human Genome Project in school. It was such a fascinating topic that I couldn't help but dive deeper into it. The Human Genome Project was an international research effort to determine the complete sequence of the human genome, which is the set of genetic information in our DNA. This project aimed to identify and map all the genes in the human genome and understand their functions.One of the most exciting things about the Human Genome Project was the potential it held for personalized medicine. By understanding the genetic makeup of individuals, doctors could tailor treatments to each person's unique genetic profile. For example, if someone had a geneticpredisposition to a certain disease, doctors couldintervene early to prevent it from developing.I also remember learning about how the Human Genome Project has led to significant advancements in genetics and biotechnology. Scientists have been able to identify genes associated with various diseases, develop new diagnostic tools, and even create genetically modified organisms for research purposes.Overall, the Human Genome Project has had a profound impact on the field of genetics and medicine. It has opened up new possibilities for understanding and treating genetic diseases, as well as improving our overall health and well-being.中文回答:我记得当我第一次在学校学习人类基因组计划时,那是一个如此迷人的话题,我忍不住深入研究。

拥有红色基因英文作文I've got the red gene, you know. It's in my blood, in my DNA. It's the kind of gene that makes me fiery, passionate, and full of energy. When I walk into a room, people can feel the heat coming off me. It's like I'm always on fire, burning with intensity and drive.This red gene of mine, it's what gives me that competitive edge. I don't just want to win, I need to win. Whether it's in sports, in business, or in life, I always have to come out on top. Failure is not an option for me.I'll do whatever it takes to succeed, even if it means taking risks and pushing myself to the limit.But it's not just about being aggressive and assertive. This red gene also makes me incredibly passionate about the things I believe in. When I care about something, I throw myself into it wholeheartedly. I can't just sit on the sidelines and watch things happen – I have to be in the thick of it, fighting for what I believe is right.Sometimes, though, this red gene of mine can get meinto trouble. I can be impulsive, quick-tempered, and stubborn. I don't always think before I act, and I can be a bit of a hothead when things don't go my way. But hey,that's just part of who I am. I'd rather be passionate and hot-blooded than cold and indifferent.At the end of the day, having the red gene is both a blessing and a curse. It gives me the drive and determination to go after what I want, but it also means I have to be careful not to let my emotions get the better of me. But you know what? I wouldn't trade it for anything.It's what makes me who I am, and I wouldn't have it any other way.。
FOR some people in this world, the glass always seems to be half-full. For others it is half-empty. But how someone comes to have a sunny disposition1 in the first place is an interesting question.It has been known for a long time that optimists2 see the world selectively, mentally processing positive things while ignoring negative ones, and that this outlook helps determine their health and well-being3. In recent years, it has also become clear that carriers of a particular version of a particular gene4 are at higher risk than others of depression and attempted suicide when they face traumatic events. The gene in question lies in a region of the genome that promotes the activity of a second gene, which encodes a protein called the serotonin transporter. Serotonin is a messenger molecule5 that carries signals between nerve cells, and it is known to modulate6 many aspects of human behaviour, although the details are complex and controversial. The transporter protein recycles serotonin back into the cell that produced it, making it available for reuse, but also reducing the amount in the junctions7 between cells and thus, it is presumed, the strength of the signal.It has looked increasingly likely, therefore, that genes8 -- particularly those connected with serotonin -- have a role to play in shaping a person's outlook. So Elaine Fox and her colleagues at the University of Essex, in Britain, wondered whether genes play a part in the selective attention to positive or negative material, with consequent effects on outlook.To find out, they took samples of DNA9 from about 100 people and then subjected these people to what is known as the dot-probe paradigm10 test to see how they reacted to different stimuli11. In this test participants are briefly12 shown photographs that may be positive, negative or neutral in tone. They then have to press a keypad to indicate when a dot has appeared on the screen. It has been found by experience that the more distracting an image is, the longer a person takes to respond when the dot appears. That allowed Dr Fox and her team to discover how distracting particular people found particular images.In a paper just published in the Proceedings13 of the Royal Society B they report that, sure enough, gene-related variation caused a bias14 in attention towards positive and negative material. Some people had two "long" versions of the promoter gene (one inherited from each parent), a combination that reduces the amount of serotonin in the junctions between nerve cells. These individuals were biased15 towards positive images and away from negative ones. By contrast, those who had either a long and a short version of the gene, or two short versions (and thus, presumably, more serotonin in the junctions), did not have such protective biases16. In other words, the optimists really did see the world differently.Rose-tinted spectacles may be good for one's health, as these results fit in with wider ideas about how a tendency to look on the bright side of life is part of being resilient to stress. Those with short variants17 of this gene are expected to have anincreased susceptibility to mood disorders18 following such stress. It is not all good news, though, for optimists. Because these results suggest that a person's attitude to life is inherited, they serve as a stark19 warning to all buoyant optimists that tryingto cheer the rest of the world up with nothing more than a smile and an effortlessly sunny disposition is doomed20 to failure.词汇表:1 dispositionn.性情,性格;意向,倾向;排列,部署参考例句:He has made a good disposition of his property.他已对财产作了妥善处理。
人为什么会做梦的用英语写的小作文加中文版全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1English Version:Why Do People Dream?Have you ever wondered why we dream? Dreams are like little movies that play in our heads when we're sleeping. Some dreams are fun and exciting, while others can be strange or even scary. But why do we have dreams in the first place? Let me tell you what I think!I believe dreams happen because our brains are still working hard even when we're asleep. You see, during the day, our brains are super busy processing all the things we see, hear, and do. But at night, when we're resting, our brains don't just shut off completely. Instead, they keep working, sorting through all the information and experiences we had that day.It's kind of like when you clean your room. You might tidy up your toys, clothes, and books, putting everything in its proper place. But sometimes, you might find some things that don'tseem to belong anywhere, like an old candy wrapper or a stray sock. Your brain does something similar when you're asleep – it tries to organize and make sense of all the thoughts, feelings, and memories from the day, but sometimes it comes across things that don't quite fit.That's where dreams come in! Dreams are like little stories that our brains make up to help us process and understand the things that don't make sense or seem out of place. It's our brain's way of sorting through the clutter and trying to make everything fit together nicely.But why are dreams sometimes so weird and crazy? Well, that's because our brains are just making things up as they go along! They take bits and pieces of our memories and experiences and mix them together in all sorts of wacky ways. That's why you might dream about flying elephants or talking toasters – your brain is just having a little fun and being creative!Some people also think that dreams might help us practice and prepare for things that could happen in the future. For example, if you have a dream about taking a test at school, it might be your brain's way of getting you ready for an actual test you have coming up. Or if you dream about playing in a big soccer game, it could be your brain's way of helping you imaginewhat that would be like so you're not as nervous if it happens in real life.Dreams can also reflect our feelings and emotions. If you're feeling worried or stressed about something, you might have a dream related to that. Or if you're really excited about an upcoming event, like a birthday party or a family vacation, your dreams might be filled with happy, exciting themes.So the next time you have a really wacky dream, don't worry – it's just your amazing brain doing its job and having a little fun while you sleep! Dreams are a fascinating part of being human, and they remind us that even when we're resting, our brains never truly take a break.Chinese Translation:为什么人会做梦?你有没有想过为什么我们会做梦呢?梦就像是在我们睡觉时在脑海里播放的小电影。

Rushing to the front yard, he saw that the house across the street was engulfed in flames, with his neighbors trapped inside.According to WFMZ-TV, Rivera didn’t hesitate. He climbed up the three-story building, which was already covered in flames. On a narrow ledge (窗台) at the burning home, a woman was trying to pull a man out of an attic window as smoke poured out. The man was calling for help.Rivera and a neighbor quickly grabbed a ladder and rushed to assist. “I just started jumping, jumping and jumping,” Rivera told WFMZ-TV. He managed to reach the top floor and pulled the man from the window, who had yelled, “Help me. I can’t walk.”Eyewitness Janeen Huth, who recorded the rescue, praised Rivera for risking his life while his young children watched from the door. “Come on! Come on!” Huth can be heard shouting in the video, as other onlookers and firefighters worked to assist. “Rivera is a true hero,” she told The Morning Call. Rivera managed to get the victim onto the ledge, and firefighters then took over, bringing the man to safety.The rescued man sustained critical burns and was taken to the hospital, according to WFMZ-TV.

These involve tagging the viruses with antibodies and killing cells infected (使感染) by the virus. A global health crisis can bring the world to its knees, highlighting the huge impact a virus can have. This tiny organism, invisible under a normal microscope, can wreak havoc on worldwide.There are more viruses on Earth than stars in the universe, so why haven’t we always been maintaining social distance? Primarily because not all viruses can infect us, and for those that do, the body handles them quite well. To put it simply, viruses are extremely small parasites that infect all sorts of life, from the smallest bacteria to the largest mammals; they are considered parasites because they can’t survive by themselves. Viruses infect health y host cells and use their cellular “tools” to make more copies of themselves.Viruses are everywhere—in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the land on which we walk. Yet, even after being bombarded with viruses, our body still manages to stay strong. This is because of our immune system and its clever strategies to fight back against viral attacks! Fortunately, with our modern healthcare advancements, we have extra help to fight viruses. These include vaccines, antiviral drugs, and other health technologies to keep us going in this never-ending war.As time goes by and our bodies encounter more viruses, we develop better immunological memory. This is the body’s way of remembering past infections, making it better prepared for future ones.8.Which can replace the underlined phrase “wreak havoc on” in paragraph 1?A.Depend heavily on.B.Have a bad effect on.C.Take the side effect off.D.Cut the whole power off.9.Why do we always fail to maintain social distance despite lots of viruses?A.Not all viruses infect humans.B.Not all viruses are small.C.Viruses need host cells.D.Viruses infect all life forms.10.What is one of the strategies our body uses to fight viral attacks?A.Reducing the number of viruses in the environment.B.Avoiding contacting with infected individuals.C.Taking advantage of the immune system.D.Increasing exposure to viruses.11.What can be the best title for the text?A.What is the definition of unusual viruses?B.How to know well the immune system?C.How does our body fight viruses?D.How to break down the viruses?A major tech company has expanded options for keeping personal information from online searches. The company stated earlier this week that it would allow people to request the removal of more types of content, such as personal contact information like phone numbers, email addresses, and physical addresses, from search results. The new policy also permits the removal of other information that may pose a risk for identity theft, such as confidential (机密的) login accounts.In a statement, the company said that open access to information is vital. “But so is empowering (授权) people with the tools they need to protect themselves and keep their sensitive, personally identifiable information private,” the statement continued. “Privacy and online safety go hand in hand. And when you’re using the Internet, it’s important to have control over how your sensitive, personally identifiable information can be found.”Previously, the company had allowed people to request the removal of highly personalcontent that could cause direct harm.

关于基因的英语作文In the realm of biology, genetics stands as a cornerstone of understanding the intricate blueprint of life. It is a science that delves into the study of genes, hereditary traits, and the variations of organisms. The essence of genetics lies in its ability to unravel the mysteries of inheritance and evolution, offering insights into the very fabric of existence.Genes, the fundamental units of heredity, are composed of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and are responsible for passingtraits from one generation to the next. They are the building blocks of life, dictating the physical characteristics, behaviors, and even predispositions to certain diseases. The discovery of the DNA double helix structure by Watson and Crick in 1953 was a monumental leap forward in the field of genetics, providing a physical model for understanding genetic inheritance.Advancements in genetic research have led to groundbreaking applications such as genetic engineering and gene therapy. Genetic engineering allows for the manipulation of an organism's genes to achieve desired traits, which has revolutionized agriculture, medicine, and biotechnology. Gene therapy, on the other hand, holds the promise of treating genetic disorders by replacing or repairing faulty genes, offering hope to millions of individuals suffering from hereditary diseases.However, the power of genetics also comes with ethical considerations. The potential for genetic discrimination, where individuals may be judged based on their genetic makeup, is a growing concern. Additionally, the concept of designer babies, where parents select specific traits for their offspring, raises questions about the moral implications of such choices.In conclusion, genetics is a field of immense potential and complexity. It has the power to transform our understandingof life and improve the quality of living for many. Yet, it also requires a responsible and ethical approach to ensurethat its benefits are harnessed for the greater good of humanity. As we continue to explore the depths of genetic science, it is crucial to balance innovation with caution, ensuring that our pursuit of knowledge does not outpace our ability to navigate its consequences.。
Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay KitCatalog No. Q33232Product informationThe Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS (High Sensitivity) Assay Kit makes DNA quantitation easy and accurate. The kit includes a ready-to-use assay buffer and DNA standards. To perform the assay, dilute your sample (any volume from 1–20 μL is acceptable) into the 1X working solution provided, then read the concentration using a fluorescence plate reader. The assay is highly selective for double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) over RNA (Figure 4, page 6) and is accurate for initial sampleconcentrations from 10 pg/μL to 100 ng/μL, providing a core detection range of 0.2 ng to 100 ng of DNA in the assay tube. The assay is performed at room temperature, and the signal is stable for 3 hours when the samples are protected from light. Common contaminants such as salts, free nucleotides, solvents, detergents, or protein are well tolerated in the assay (Table 2, page 7).In addition to the Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay Kit described here, we also offer the Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA BR (Broad Range) Assay Kit (Cat. No. Q33267). The Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA BR Assay Kit is designed for assaying samples containing 4–2000 ng of DNA. The Qubit ™ dsDNA HS Assay – Lambda standard (Cat. No. Q33233) can be used to create the standard dilution series for the Quant-iT ™ dsDNA HS assay.If you would like to use this kit with the Qubit ™ Fluorometer, we have included instructions under "Perform the Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay on a Qubit ™ Fluorometer" (page 4).Table 1.Contents and storagePub. No. MAN0017526Rev. C.0Critical assay parametersAssay temperatureThe Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay delivers optimal performance when all solutions are at room temperature (18–28˚C). Temperature fluctuations can influence the accuracy of the assay (Figure 5, page 6).To minimize temperature fluctuations, insert all assay tubes into the fluorescence microplate reader only for as much time as it takes for the instrument to measure the fluorescence. Do not hold the assay tubes in your hand before reading because this warms the solution and results in a different reading.Incubation timeTo allow the Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay to reach optimal fluorescence, incubate the tubes for 2 minutes after mixing the sample or the standard with the working solution. After this incubation period, the fluorescence signal is stable for 3 hours at room temperature when samples are protected from light.Photostability of Quant-iT ™reagentsThe Quant-iT ™ reagents exhibit high photostability, showing <0.3% drop in fluorescence after 9 readings and <2.5% drop in fluorescence after 40 readings.Handling and disposalNo data are currently available that address the mutagenicity or toxicity of theQuant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS Reagent (the dye in Component A). This reagent is known to bind nucleic acids. Treat the Quant-iT ™ 1X dsDNA HS working solution with the same safety precautions as all other potential mutagens and dispose of the dye in accordance with local regulations.Figure 1. Excitation and emission maxima for the Quant-iT ™1X dsDNA HS reagent when bound to dsDNA.Perform the Quant-iT™ dsDNA HS Assay on a fluorescence microplate readerThis protocol describes the use of the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay Kit with afluorescence microplate reader that is equipped with either a monochrometer orexcitation and emission filters appropriate for fluorescein or Alexa Fluor™ 488 dye(Figure 1, page 2). Some contaminating substances may interfere with the assay; formore information, see "Contaminants tolerated by the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay"(page 7). For an overview of this procedure, see Figure 2.Figure 2. The Quant-iT™ dsDNA High-Sensitivity assay.Assay procedure IMPORTANT! For best results, ensure that all materials and reagents are at roomtemperature.1.1 Add 10 μL of each Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS Standard to separate wells. Duplicates ortriplicates of the standards are recommended.1.2 Add 1–20 µL of each unknown DNA sample to separate wells. Duplicates or triplicatesof the unknown samples are recommended.1.3 Load 200 μL of the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA working solution into each microplate well.This can be done readily using a multichannel pipettor.If possible, mix your 96-well plate using a plate mixer or using the plate reader for1.4about 3–10 seconds. Following mixing, allow the plate to incubate at room temperaturefor 2 minutes..Measure the fluorescence using a microplate reader (excitation/emission maxima are1.5502/523 nm; see Figure 1, page 2). Standard fluorescein wavelengths (excitation/emission at ~480/530 nm) are appropriate for this dye. The fluorescence signal is stablefor 3 hours at room temperature when protected from light.Use a standard curve to determine the DNA amounts. For the dsDNA standards, plot1.6amount vs. fluorescence, and fit a straight line to the data points.Note: Many curve fitting programs will calculate the y-intercept. However, for bestresults, manually set the y-intercept as the RFU value obtained from the 0 ng/μLdsDNA standard.Data analysis considerations –standard curves and extendedranges The fluorescence of the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS reagent bound to dsDNA is extremelylinear from 0–100 ng. For best results at the low end of the standard curve, the lineshould be forced through the background point (or through zero, if backgroundhas been subtracted). When 10 μL volumes of the standards are used, the lowestDNA-containing standard represents 5 ng of DNA; nevertheless, highly accuratedeterminations of DNA down to 0.2 ng are attained using the standard curve asdescribed above.To assess the reliability of the assay in the low range, use smaller volumes of thestandards; for example, 2 μL volumes for a standard curve ranging from 0–20 ng.Alternatively, dilute the standards in buffer for an even tighter range. Duringdevelopment of the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS assay, we were able to detect 0.05 ng ofλ DNA under ideal experimental circumstances (using calibrated pipettors, octuplicatedeterminations, the best microplate readers, and Z-factor1 analysis). Your results mayvary.If desired, the utility of the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS assay can be extended beyond100 ng, up to 200 ng. For standards in this range, use 20 μL volumes of the providedstandards. Note that the standard curve may not be linear in the range 160–200 ng, andhigh levels of RNA may now interfere slightly with the results.Perform the Quant-iT™ dsDNA HS Assay on a Qubit™ FluorometerThe Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA Assay Kit can be adapted for use with the Qubit™Fluorometer. The protocol below is abbreviated from the Qubit™ Fluorometer userguide, which is available at /qubit. Although a step-by-step protocoland critical assay parameters are given here, more detail is available in the Qubit™Fluorometer user guide and you are encouraged to familiarize yourself with thismanual before you begin your assay. See Figure 3 for an overview of the procedure.Figure 3. Overview for using the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS assay in the Qubit™ fluorometer.Assay procedure IMPORTANT! For best results, ensure that all materials and reagents are at roomtemperature.2.1 Set up the required number of 0.5-mL tubes for standards and samples. The Quant-iT™1X dsDNA HS Assay requires 2 standards.Note: Use only thin-wall, clear, 0.5-mL PCR tubes. Acceptable tubes include Qubit™assay tubes (Cat. No. Q32856).2.2 Label the tube lids.Note: Do not label the side of the tube as this could interfere with the sample read. Labelthe lid of each standard tube correctly. Calibration of the Qubit™ Fluorometer requiresthe standards to be inserted into the instrument in the right order.2.3 Add 10 µL of the 0 ng/μL and the 10 ng/μL Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS Standard to theappropriate tube2.4 Add 1–20 µL of each user sample to the appropriate tube.2.5 Add the Quant-iT™ 1X dsDNA HS Working Solution to each tube such that the finalvolume is 200 µL.Note: The final volume in each tube must be 200 µL. Each standard tube requires 190 µLof Quant-iT™ working solution, and each sample tube requires anywhere from180–199 µL.2.6 Mix each sample vigorously by vortexing for 3–5 seconds.2.7 Allow all tubes to incubate at room temperature for 2 minutes, then proceed to read thestandards and samples. Follow the procedure appropriate for your instrument:• Qubit™ Flex Fluorometer• Qubit™ 4 Fluorometer• Qubit™ 3 FluorometerNote: If you are using the Qubit™ 3 Fluorometer, download the 1X dsDNA algorithmand assay button from /qubit, then install it onto your Qubit™Fluorometer.AppendixSelectivity of the Quant-iT™ 1XdsDNA HS AssayFigure 4.

DNA testing and its application Conclusion
What DNA stands for?
DNA is short for deoxyribonucleic acid.
It is the molecule that carries genetic
information in all living cells.
A molecule of DNA consists of two
strands of chemical compounds
arranged in a twisted pattern.
The Father of DNA
In 1953, J. D. Watson and
Francis Crick discovered and
described the DNA structure.
Their work was so important that
they received the Nobel Prize in
1962.
DNA testing
One important use of DNA testing is testing identity, which is also called DNA fingerprinting.
Scientists take a
small sample of
someone’s hair or
skin, which
contain DNA
They treat the
sample with
chemicals and make
a film, like a small
photograph.On this film there is a visible pattern of black bars. This pattern of black bars is unique for each person.
Does the DNA from hair or skin or blood
all look the same?
No, not exactly.
The DNA from your hair will look like hair DNA
but it will be uniquely your DNA pattern.
It’s sort of like all noses look like noses, right?
But your nose looks like your nose only.
Two applications of DNA testing By doctors By police
.
DNA is used by doctors
Within health-care, one important use is to identify
potential for health problems. Researchers have found some genes linked to specific diseases.
a defect in chromosome 4 a defect in chromosome 21
DNA is used by doctors
From the DNA testing, doctors can give medication to
a patient to prevent a disease from ever starting.
Genetic testing can also be used to decide which
medicine to give someone. This is called targeted
medicine.
Besides,doctors can also use the DNA testing to
make organ replication.
DNA is used by police
The police can use DNA fingerprints to identify and trace criminals.
DNA testing can be used by police to help innocent people in prison.
DNA is used by police
Abducted children find their parents through DNA test .
Genetically Modified Foods
People also worry about health insurance. They’re afraid they might not be able to get health insurance if their DNA test shows they’re at a higher risk for certain diseases.
Conclusion
DNA is unique from person to person and it is changing our life wonderfully!
We should make use of its advantage in the real life such as identifying and tracing criminals.
Also ,we should resolutely resist its negative influence such as body discriming.。
