Precision will be reduced, but yield will be increased Optimisation of a PCR reaction is often a compromise between the competing demands for precision, efficiency and yield. Although the specific effects may vary, generally, increasing the annealing temperature will increase non-specific primer binding and reduce precision. Increasing the length of the elongation phase will reduce the proportion of incomplete newly-synthesised strands and therefore increase yield. In this case, the potential effect on efficiency is unclear. Increasing the elongation phase would increase the reaction time, but the time taken to ramp down to a lower annealing temperature would be reduced.

Ram and Nidhi are apparently normal, but their daughter was born with alkaptonuria, an inherited metabolic disorder. If alkaptonuria is like most human hereditary disorders, the probability of their next child being born with alkaptonuria is

A waste-water stream of F = 1 m3 /h with substrate at 2000 mg/l is treated in an upflow packed bed containing immobilized bacteria in form of biofilm on small ceramic particles. The effluent substrate level is desired to be 30 mg/l. The rate of substrate removal is given by the following equation

                   

By using the following information, determine the required height of the column (H). k = 0.5 h-1, X = 10 g/l, Ks = 200 mg/l, L = 0.2 mm, α = 100 m2 /m3 , A = 4 m2 , η = 0.8
