3.00 Credits
Focuses on the theory and practice of cell culture in the biotechnology laboratory. Plant embryo culture and protoplast culture are performed, and cultured plant cells are used in genetic engineering experiments. Primary animal cell cultures and continuous cell lines are propagated. Related topics include lab safety, aseptic techniques, growth cycles, cloning of cells, specialized techniques and applications, contamination, organogenesis, and cell transformation. Lecture and lab. For biotechnology majors. Prerequisite: Matriculation in biotechnology M.S. or B.S. program or permission of the instructor 4 credits
-
1.00 Credits
This General Education laboratory course, the first semester course in the CHEM 031/ CHEM 032 (Organic Biochemistry) sequences, introduces the practice of general chemistry in the laboratory, and the topics covered correspond to the topics covered in the co-requisite lecture course, CHEM 131 (College Chemistry). The course has an orientation toward the health sciences. In this first semester course, the primary emphasis is on learning basic laboratory techniques such as quantitative measurements of mass, volume, density, concentration, qualitative analysis, distillation, measurement of the properties of gases, simple compounds, solutions (including acids and bases), factors affecting chemical reactivities, and equilibrium. Corequisite: CHEM 131 1 credit
-
3.00 Credits
The course uses molecular model approach to emphasize the significance of isomerism and functional groups in determining the physical, chemical, and biological properties of organic molecules actually observed. In addition, experiments in enzymology, digestion of foods, qualitative and/or semiquantitative determination of amino acids, carbohydrates, ketones bodies, proteins, ATP etc. are also conducted. Prerequisite: CHEM 031, corequisite CHEM 132 1 credit
-
3.00 Credits
This laboratory course, the companion course to CHEM 251 (Organic Chemistry I Lecture), introduces the practice of organic chemistry in the laboratory. In this first semester course, the primary emphasis is on learning basic laboratory techniques such as recrystallization, distillation (simple and fractional), reflux and extraction. Experiments will also include the preparation and reactions of alkanes, alkenes and alkynes (the three major functional groups discussed in the companion first semester lecture course). Experiments will be performed at the macro and micro scale. Prerequisites: CHEM 161 and CHEM 061; corequisite: CHEM 251 1 credit
-
3.00 Credits
This laboratory course is the continuation of CHEM 051 (Organic Chemistry I Laboratory) and is the companion course to CHEM 252 (Organic Chemistry II Lecture). In this second semester course, the primary emphasis is to build on the basic laboratory techniques such as recrystallization, distillation (simple and fractional), reflux and extraction introduced in CHEM 051 (Organic Chemistry I Laboratory). Also various spectroscopies (NMR, IR, MS, and UV-VIS) are introduced. Experiments will also include the preparation and reactions of derivatives, alcohols, phenols and ethers, aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives (esters, acid halides, amides and anhydrides), and amines (the major functional groups discussed in the companion first semester lecture course). Experiments will be performed at the macro and micro scale. Prerequisites: CHEM 251 and CHEM 051; corequisite: CHEM 252 1 credit
-
1.00 Credits
A laboratory taken concurrently with CHEM 160 lecture, which is designed to provide an elaboration of general chemistry concepts encompassing matter and measurement, atoms, molecules, and ions, atomic structure, stoichiometric calculations with chemical formula and equations, aqueous reactions and solution stoichiometry, thermochemistry, electronic structure of atoms, and chemical bonding theories. Corequisite: CHEM 160 1 credit
-
3.00 Credits
A laboratory is taken concurrently with CHEM 161 lecture, which is designed to provide an elaboration of general chemistry concepts encompassing gases, intermolecular forces, liquids, and solids, modern materials, properties of solutions, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acid-base equilibria, and chemical thermodynamics. The laboratory presents a series of exercises that demonstrate the chemical principles presented in lecture. Prerequisite: CHEM 060; Corequisite: CHEM 161 1 credit
-
4.00 Credits
