A Junior Research Associate was asked 1mo ago
Q. What is SDS-PAGE and how is it used in biological research?
Ans. 

SDS-PAGE is a technique for separating proteins based on their size using a polyacrylamide gel and sodium dodecyl sulfate.

  • Separation by Size: SDS-PAGE separates proteins primarily based on their molecular weight, allowing researchers to analyze protein purity and size.

  • Denaturation: SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) denatures proteins, giving them a negative charge proportional to their length, ensuring uniform migratio...

Q. What is the calculation formula for FCM in Air velocity?
Ans. 

The calculation formula for FCM in air velocity is FCM = 0.075 x V^2

  • FCM stands for face velocity calibration factor

  • V is the air velocity in feet per minute (fpm)

  • The formula is FCM = 0.075 x V^2

A Process Validation Executive was asked 6mo ago
Q. What is the pore size of a HEPA filter?
Ans. 

HEPA filters typically have a pore size of 0.3 microns.

  • HEPA filters are designed to capture particles as small as 0.3 microns in size

  • The pore size of a HEPA filter is crucial for its efficiency in trapping particles

  • HEPA filters are commonly used in cleanrooms, hospitals, and HVAC systems

A Trainee Research Associate was asked
Q. What is molarity?normality?
Ans. 

Molarity is the concentration of a solution expressed as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. Normality is the concentration of a solution expressed as the number of equivalents of solute per liter of solution.

  • Molarity is a measure of the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

  • It is represented by the symbol 'M'.

  • For example, a 1 M solution of sodium chloride contains one mole of sodium chl...

A Senior Research Associate was asked
Q. Molarity concept
Ans. 

Molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution.

  • Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

  • It is expressed in units of mol/L or M.

  • Molarity can be calculated using the formula: Molarity (M) = moles of solute / liters of solution.

  • For example, a solution containing 0.5 moles of NaCl in 1 liter of water has a molarity of 0.5 M.

An Executive Trainee was asked
Q. Molarity and Molality of NaCl
Ans. 

Molarity and molality are two different ways of expressing the concentration of a solution.

  • Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

  • Molality is the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.

  • Molarity changes with temperature, while molality does not.

  • For example, a 1 M solution of NaCl contains 1 mole of NaCl per liter of solution, while a 1 molal solution of NaCl contains 1 mole of Na...

A Process Validation Executive was asked 6mo ago
Q. Limits for NVPC atrest and inoperation
Ans. 

Limits for NVPC at rest and in operation refer to the non-viable particle count in a cleanroom environment.

  • NVPC limits are typically specified in particles per cubic meter (e.g. 3520 particles/m3 at rest, 35200 particles/m3 in operation)

  • These limits are important for maintaining cleanliness and quality in pharmaceutical or semiconductor manufacturing facilities

  • Regular monitoring and testing of NVPC levels is neces...
