what are the categories of medical pharmacology, rehab, genetics, medical devices,
interventions? diagnostics, surgery
What is bioinformatics? the application of computational methods to the
storage and analysis of biological data
How can DNA sequences be used to can determine specific segments of DNA that differ
identify disease pathogens? between different types of pathogens and analyze
this segment by following a similar sequencing
pattern

what are the basic steps for isolating 1- isolate the DNA of the pathogen using PCR. Only
and identifying bacterial DNA copies DNA from the invader
2- cycle sequencing takes the copied DNA and
creates DNA fragments of different lengths and
separates them by size
3- organize fragments based on size. Florescent
DNA goes through a laser
What is a serial dilution? A stepwise dilution of a substance in solution
Explain the process of ELISA step 1- sample is added to the wells. Proteins bind
to the walls of the wells
step 2- detergent washes out unbound proteins
and blocks surface proteins
step 3- primary antibody binds to a specific
antibody
step 4- unbound primary antibody is washed away
step 5- secondary antibody that is linked with an
enzyme is attached and added to walls and binds
to the primary antibody
step 6- excess secondary antibody is washed away
step 7- substrate is added to the wells. The
substrate binds to the enzyme bound to the
secondary antibody and causes a color change
What is the mode of action of interferes with ability to synthesize cell. (attacks
penicillin? cells walls)
what is the mode of action of binds to the ribosomes and halts protein
tetracycline? production
what is the mode of action of messes up DNA replication
floroquinoles?
