Electrophoresis and blotting techniques by asheesh pandey
Electrophoresis and blotting techniques allow separation and analysis of charged biomolecules like proteins and nucleic acids. Electrophoresis involves migrating molecules through a gel or medium in response to an electric field, causing separation based on size, charge, and other properties. Proteins can be analyzed by techniques like SDS-PAGE, where SDS confers a uniform charge, allowing separation by size. Blotting can transfer separated molecules from gels to membranes for detection or analysis. Two-dimensional electrophoresis provides high resolution by separating first by isoelectric point then molecular weight.
Presentation on harnessing collective intelligence
This document discusses how harnessing collective intelligence has become essential for companies leading in the Web 2.0 era. It notes that Web 2.0 saw the rise of blogging and how RSS technology helped make a difference.

Federated Approach for Interoperating AEC/FM Ontologies
This document presents FOWLA (Federated Architecture for OWL Ontologies), an approach for ontology federation that addresses semantic heterogeneity. FOWLA defines autonomous ontologies that are aligned through rules, allowing inference across ontologies. Queries can be expressed using terms from any aligned ontology. Rule selection reduces query execution time compared to using all alignment rules. The approach was demonstrated by aligning ifcOWL and COBieOWL ontologies for building information modeling. FOWLA enables deducing new knowledge, flexible query composition, and reduced query response times.

Monopsony market structure
NASA is soliciting proposals from private companies to build a new rocket in 1960. Companies should submit a 5 part proposal including price. NASA will be the sole purchaser of rockets.
03 ch17 oligopoly
The three market structures are perfect competition, monopolistic competition, and oligopoly. They seem to depend on the number of firms in the industry and level of product differentiation. Oligopoly is characterized by having a few large firms, similar but not identical products, and interdependent decision making. The concentration ratio measures the percentage of total market output produced by the top four firms, with higher ratios indicating less competition. Several US industries have very high concentration ratios, including video game consoles at 100% and credit cards at 99%.

02 allocative efficiency
This document discusses different types of economic efficiency including allocative efficiency, productive efficiency, and dynamic efficiency. It examines these efficiencies in the context of perfect competition, monopoly, and monopolistic competition market structures. Productive efficiency refers to producing at lowest cost while dynamic efficiency involves reinvesting supernormal profits into lowering costs further. The document considers which market structure results in each type of efficiency.
01 monopolistic comp
This document contains snippets of text from various sources discussing economic concepts like market structures, competition, and costs. It includes brief explanations of perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, and monopoly market types. Students are asked questions about different markets and perfect competition. Graphs are shown for perfect competition, monopolistic competition, and marginal revenue under monopolistic competition with deadweight loss.
01 3 reform
This document discusses the Reformation period in Christianity between 500-1500 AD. It provides background that during this time all Christians were Catholic, led by the Pope and bishops. The priests sold indulgences claiming they could reduce time in purgatory. Martin Luther protested the Catholic Church's corruption in 1517, sparking the Protestant reformation. Luther and other reformers disagreed with practices like selling indulgences and wanted people to be able to read the Bible in their own language. The document examines key figures and events of the Reformation like Martin Luther, his 95 Theses, and the new Protestant churches that formed.
Pharm mon to perfect
This document discusses demand for lifesaving pharmaceuticals and the pricing of drugs under a monopoly. It asks how the demand curve would look if a firm had a patent on a cure for cancer and what deadweight loss would be. It also asks if such a firm should be allowed to charge any price and how quantity supplied would change if the firm price discriminated. The document then provides a graph showing the transition from a monopoly market to a competitive market when a drug patent expires and generics enter. It asks about other similar markets and provides links about copyright and public domain works.
Price discriminating monopolist
This document discusses the concept of price discrimination. It begins by defining price discrimination as selling the same good at different prices to different buyers based on their willingness to pay. It provides examples such as student/senior discounts and differences in airline ticket prices. The document explains that under perfect price discrimination, a monopolist can capture all consumer surplus as profit and eliminate deadweight loss. However, in reality firms can only imperfectly discriminate by dividing customers into groups based on observable traits related to willingness to pay. It concludes by asking questions about whether price discrimination should always be illegal and discussing the "Soup Nazi" character from Seinfeld.
Monopoly types
This document discusses monopolies and public policy related to monopolies. It begins by explaining the key characteristics of a monopoly market, including that a monopoly has total pricing power as the sole seller of a good or service. It then discusses the different types of monopolies such as geographic, government-granted, technological, and natural monopolies. The document goes on to explain how a profit-maximizing monopoly determines its optimal quantity and price using demand and marginal cost curves. It notes that a monopoly produces a lower quantity and charges a higher price than would be produced under perfect competition, resulting in deadweight loss. Finally, it discusses various public policy options for dealing with monopolies, such as antitrust laws to increase competition, regulation

This document contains instructions for a homework assignment about the Medici family during the Renaissance. Students are asked to answer 7 questions: 1) identifying if a source is primary or secondary, 2) discussing how the Medici family business helped Europeans, 3) considering why the Medici patronized artists, 4) listing 3 Medici contributions people enjoy today, 5) analyzing the Medici view on education, 6) evaluating the impact of powerful families, and 7) creating a timeline of 5 Medici family events. The document repeats the assignment questions multiple times.
Block renaissanceart
This document provides an overview of Renaissance art and key concepts about the Renaissance period from the 1300s to 1550. It discusses causes of the Renaissance like the rediscovery of Greek/Roman ideas and art. Renaissance art is characterized by elements like perspective, realism, contrast between light and dark, and depicting humanism in Greek/Roman styles. The document lists and shows images of famous Renaissance artists like Michelangelo, Donatello, Da Vinci, and Raphael and some of their iconic works. Students are assigned a task analyzing Renaissance paintings or creating original art in the Renaissance style.
Mon printing press
The document discusses the impact of the printing press invention by Johannes Gutenberg in the 1400s-1600s. It notes that before the printing press, all books were handwritten which was a long and difficult process. The printing press allowed books and new ideas to spread widely across Europe, helping to end ignorance. This was a factor in the Renaissance period, a time of "rebirth" in European culture and society. The document suggests Gutenberg is one of the most important people to ever live due to his role in popularizing printing.
Shut down point and profit
The document contains examples and explanations of microeconomic concepts related to firm behavior including:
1. How a competitive firm determines its profit-maximizing quantity where marginal revenue equals marginal cost.
2. How the marginal cost curve determines the firm's supply decision - if price is above marginal cost, the firm will increase output.
3. The difference between a firm's short-run decision to shutdown if price is below average variable cost, versus its long-run decision to exit the market if price is below average total cost.
Black plague wed thur
The document discusses the deadliness of diseases over time. It mentions that the Black Plague killed 30-50% of Europe's population in the 1300s. Students are asked to compare graphs showing which diseases are not as deadly today and which two diseases remain deadly. The document also discusses a modern plague outbreak in Madagascar in 2013 and brainstorms ways the US and Madagascar governments could help prevent future outbreaks. Students are assigned to create a 4-page health pamphlet for people in the 1300s about the symptoms, prevention, and societal impacts of the Bubonic Plague.
04 black plague wed thur
The document discusses several deadly pandemics throughout history, including the Black Death plague which originated in China and spread along the Silk Road to Europe in the 14th century, killing an estimated 30-50% of the European population. Students are assigned to write a letter from a Silk Road trader during this time period describing how life has changed in Rome due to the plague, symptoms of the disease, and how to prevent its spread. Other assignments involve analyzing the impact of a modern disease outbreak and creating an educational pamphlet about the bubonic plague.
03 intolerance today
The document provides instructions for students to complete assignments on discrimination and religious intolerance. Students are asked to describe a time they witnessed discrimination and how they responded, and how they will respond in the future. They are also assigned a group poster project analyzing cases of extreme religious intolerance by indicating the location, groups involved, and events, and conveying a message about the effects of such behavior.
02 intolerance inquisition
The document discusses the religious protections guaranteed by the First Amendment and how countries may change if they adopted different state religions. It provides background on countries with official state religions, the concept of a theocracy where government is run by religious rules, and details about the Spanish Inquisition where the Catholic church ruled Spain and persecuted those who did not conform to Catholic doctrine.
01 end of crusades
Constantinople was important during the Crusades as it was the capital of the Byzantine Empire and controlled the trade routes between Europe and Asia. Spain was under Muslim control during the Crusades. The document provides notes about Crusades events like the Siege of Jerusalem in 1099 and Battle of Nicopolis in 1396, and asks questions about Crusader advantages and Ibn Fadlan's travels.
Perfect comp m t
This document discusses competition in markets through a series of examples and questions. It begins with an experiment involving different levels of competition and asks students to consider how it affects pricing power. It then discusses the benefits and drawbacks of competition for consumers and producers. Various market structures are introduced, including perfect competition as exemplified by markets like gasoline, salt, and paper clips. Firms in perfect competition are price takers, and the document explores how they can increase revenue and profit given these constraints.
Sports assignment
The Tohono O'odham tribe wants to build a soccer stadium next to their casino. This would create both positive and negative externalities for the local community and governments. Negative externalities could include increased traffic and noise, while positive externalities could include more jobs and tax revenue. Finding ways to minimize the harm to neighbors, such as addressing traffic issues, would help gain city support for financing the stadium project. Understanding the elasticity of demand for tickets, concessions, and merchandise through price changes would help the tribe maximize revenue.
Cost curves computer lab
This document provides instructions for creating graphs using an online graphing tool to illustrate various microeconomics concepts related to supply and demand, costs of production, and market equilibrium. Students are asked to create graphs showing: a unit elastic supply/demand curve with price controls; a market with negative externalities; the effect of a per unit tax; short-run cost curves and break-even analysis; and supply/demand shifts in response to current events. The final questions provide an additional economics game and a request for new classroom tools.
