    Biology is the scientific study of life. [1] [2] [3] It is a natural science with a broad scope but has several unifying themes that tie it together as a single, coherent field.

The most vital things in human life (locomotion, speech) just have to ...

    Coomassie brilliant blue R-250 (CBB)(C 45 H 44 N 3 NaO 7 S 2; mW: 825.97) is the most popular protein stain. It is an anionic dye, which non-specifically binds to proteins. The structure of CBB is predominantly non-polar, and it is usually used in methanolic solution acidified with acetic acid. Proteins in the gel are fixed by acetic acid and ...
