Viral Replication Cycle
The viral replication cycle describes the sequence of events from viral attachment to the release of progeny virions from the host cell.
BiologyViral Structure and Classification
Viruses are submicroscopic infectious particles composed of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat, classified by genome type and structure.
BiologyGas Chromatography (GC)
Gas chromatography separates and analyzes volatile compounds by partitioning them between a mobile gas phase and a stationary phase.
ChemistryIon Exchange Chromatography
Ion exchange chromatography separates ions and polar molecules based on their affinity for charged stationary phases.
ChemistryThin Layer Chromatography (TLC)
Thin layer chromatography is a simple, rapid technique for separating and analyzing mixtures based on differential migration on a stationary phase.
ChemistryGravimetric Analysis
Gravimetric analysis determines the amount of an analyte by measuring the mass of a pure precipitate or residue.
ChemistryPotentiometry and Electrochemical Analysis
Potentiometry measures the electrical potential of an electrochemical cell to determine ion concentration in solution.
ChemistrySample Preparation Techniques
Sample preparation techniques convert raw samples into a form suitable for chemical analysis by extraction, digestion, or clean-up.
ChemistryAtomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS)
Atomic absorption spectroscopy measures the concentration of metal elements in a sample by analyzing absorbed light.
ChemistryFluorescence Spectroscopy
Fluorescence spectroscopy measures the emission of light from excited electronic states to study molecular structure and dynamics.
ChemistryInfrared (IR) Spectroscopy
Infrared spectroscopy identifies functional groups in molecules by measuring the absorption of infrared radiation.
ChemistryMass Spectrometry
Mass spectrometry measures the mass-to-charge ratio of ions to identify and quantify molecules.
