Learn the high level concepts of Gas Chromatography by finding out: Which has the least pesticide - the supermarket chain apple, or an apple from a local market? Learn how GC works by testing each apple, and then examine the resulting to chromatograms to find out.
The CPC exam can be intimidating if you don't have a plan going in. In this video, we'll show you some general preparation tips and test-taking strategies that will set you on the path to success.
North Carolina develops the best-trained, most industry-focused workforce possible at the Golden LEAF Biomanufacturing Training and Education Center (BTEC). The facility is located on NC State's Centennial campus in Raleigh and is home to two top-tier learning organization: NC State and BioNetwork. NC State's BTEC program provides bioprocess development, engineering, biomanufacturing, and analytical education for students and professionals already working in the field. BioNetwork's "Capstone Center" offers fundamental science and GMP training for entry-level and technical professionals in bioprocessing, analytical chemistry, microbiology, and aseptic manufacturing. Through this unique partnership, learners from a wide range of backgrounds can find the right educational program to meet their career goals, and companies can find job-ready, knowledgeable employees. The 82,500 gross-square-foot facility includes industry-standard equipment in a validated production environment.
You're the newest member of the Quality Assurance department at CATT - the Center for the Advancement of Toast Technology. Your mission is to audit the company and determine if it's SOPs, notebooks, equipment, personnel, reagent labels, and test animals are GLP compliant.
GMPs help ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of a product. You'll explore Good Manufacturing Practices as you work through several interactive scenarios in a virtual manufacturing facility.
In science, we use equations as a tool for showing a relationship between two or more entities. Using equations allows us to create a graphic of those relationships. This graphic is known as a graph. The importance of graphing cannot be overstated. Graphs are used as a tool to observe correlations between various experimental parameters.
In this program, we'll look at the production of Green Fluorescent Protein. GFP is used as a biological marker, and when attached to a drug it can provide researchers with a visual story of where the drug goes. It's a fluorescent dye that's very well tolerated by most cells and doesn't interfere with normal cellular function.
Panelist: Chuck Blethen This session will focus on the planting, training, growing, harvesting, and marketing of the Katuah Muscadine -- the only native cold-hardy muscadine on the planet. This grape has the potential to ignite a major economic growth for a long list of direct products and many value-added products that can come from growing grapes.
HCPCS codes are a vital part of the coding process. This video will teach you the format of these codes and how they interact with CPT codes, ICD codes, and Medicare and Medicaid.
In previous courses, we've talked about HIPAA in regards to its regulation of standard transmissions between providers and payers. These standard transmissions include claims, meaning HIPAA regulates a huge portion of the medical billing process.
The Health Information Resource Database includes 1,400 organizations and government offices that provide health information upon request. Entries include contact information, short abstracts, and information about publications and services the organizations provide.
In BioNetwork's Counting Cells with a Hemocytometer you will learn how to: Count cells using a Hemocytometer. , Recognize living cells vs dead cells. Calculate the percentage of viable cells. Find the average number of cells per square. Calculate the dilution factor. Find the concentration of viable cells per mL
Learn the high level concepts of High Performance Liquid Chromatography by finding out which has more caffeine - an energy drink or coffee? Learn how HPLC works by testing each drink, and then examine the resulting to chromatograms to find out.
This discussion was originally presented at the Plant Grafting Workshop hosted at Wilkes Community College in April 2009. In this video, Bill Hanlin of the Wilkes Cooperative Extension Service, explains a bit of the history behind plant grafting.
Panelist: Dr. Juliana Rangel Dr. Rangel will address: * The importance of honey bees as pollinators, value of honey bee pollination services in the US, and some definitions of ecosystems, agro-ecosystems, and ecosystem services (pollination being an important ecosystem service to humans) * Basics of pollination biology, morphological adaptations of honey bees for pollination * Economic impact and benefits of honey bee pollination nationwide and in NC * Factors that influence honey bee health * Healthy honey bees ? healthy ecosystems?
Here's how a spectrophotometer works. A lamp provides the source of light. The beam of light strikes the diffraction grating, which works like a prism and separates the light into its component wavelengths. The grating is rotated so that only a specific wavelength of light reaches the exit slit. Then the light interacts with the sample. From this point, the detector measures the transmittance and absorbance of the sample. Transmittance refers to the amount of light that passes completely through the sample and strikes the detector. Absorbance is a measurement of light that is absorbed by the sample. The detector senses the light being transmitted through the sample and converts this information into a digital display.
Coding and billing is booming, and unfortunately this means there are more than a few scams out there trying to take your money. In this video, we'll teach you how to recognize and avoid some of the most common industry scams.
Learn how to use an analytical balance. In this video, we'll explore the steps and techniques required to set up, take measurements, and clean the balance.
There are a lot of products that need to be sterilized: pharmaceuticals, equipment, solutions, medical waste, and even tattoo needles! We use a device called an Autoclave to sterilize materials in the lab. In today's demonstration, we'll show 2 common applications: 1. Sterilize a solution using slow exhaust. 2. Sterilize and dry some empty glassware using fast exhaust.
Learn how to use a microscope, see it in action, and then head to the lab to practice working with a microscope hands-on. In this video, Clarence (our rotifer microscopy expert), describes the functions and procedures for using a microscope including: , stage controls , coarse and fine focus , condenser and diaphragm , eye pieces , 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x oil immersion lenses, cleaning
