Re: SDS-PAGE migration conditions

But of course the gel % have an influence... It's say the equation for the Joule Heat: P (heat) = V * I = V^2/R = I^2 * R If the % is lower..., then the resistance (R) is lower..., then if I don't want to burn the gel during migration, I have to change (maybe ...

Quantifying DNA Damage via Radiation.

... article discusses SSB/bp/Gy (single stranded breaks per base pair per gray), and a couple others discuss yeilds of SSB in umol/J (micromoles per Joule). I've made an attempt to find a way to convert between the two methods so I can actually compare the values, but I'm stumped. The following is ...

Biology or Chemistry

... Oh my good boy! :lol: But what is "W" for? Willing? Wisdom? Woman? :lol: I dunno what is it called, but in Indonesia we call it 'usaha' with the 'joule' word in the back. Ow, my english is so bad... Example: W = 340 Joule.. Oh, in that formula, just consider that W is constant. :lol:
