UCB Barker-Koshland storeroom. Our Markup Las year, we lowered our markup from 14% to 9%. We had increased sales so much that we were able to run on a smaller percentage of the take. We knew at the time that this wouldn't last. The 9% rate meant that we were paying down the vast surplus that had built up over the previous year.

So it came as no surprise when our accountant in BDS told us we had to raise it. So we raised it. That's right: Our work saving you money has been so effective that our more permanent sale price is just barely above our "holy crap we should get rid of this money" price. We are thrilled to remain the best way to buy most of the things that make science go. 16 GB Flash Drives are now $12.99! That's not very much money! (Updated 8/12/13) Rainin Pipet-Lite XLS--extremely cheap. Rainin has recently discontinued its Pipet-Lite series, and replaced it with Pipet-Lite XLS. They're still giving us an awesome deal, though.

Ogg Electron Microscope Laboratory (EML) is located in 26 Giannini Hall in the North basement. The EML is an instruction and research unit of the College of Letters and Sciences, providing EM services to the Berkeley campus and the academic community at large. The EML provides two basic types of service: Education and training Equipment for trained users All are available to anyone with an interest in electron microscopy: graduate and undergraduate students, post-doctoral researchers, faculty, staff and non-UC users. EDUCATION AND TRAINING The EML provides basic to advanced training in all aspects of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), from specimen preparation to image processing.

RNA Whole Mount In Situ Hybridization Core protocol for both mouse and chick embryos Cepko/Tabin lab Embryo preparation Fix embryos in fresh 4% paraformaldehyde (or a thawed frozen aliquot) in PBS at 4° C overnight. Dissect embryos (as needed) into PBT, and wash once in PBT for 5 minutes with gentle rocking. Dehydrate embryos into methanol using a graded methanol/PBT series (25%, 50%, 75%, 100% methanol). Allow embryos to rock gently at room temperature for 5 minutes in each wash solution. Day 1: Prehybridization and Hybridization Rehydrate samples in a 75%, 50%, 25% methanol/PBT series.

Day 2: Post-hybridization washes, blocking, and antibody incubation Prewarm solution I to 70°C. Day 3: Post-antibody washes Wash 3 times for 5 minutes each with TBST at room temperature. Day 4: Color development Wash 3 times in NTMT for at least 10 minutes each at room temperature. Solutions All solutions should be made with high-quality reagent grade water that is RNase-free. 10X PBS (1 liter): 80 g NaCl. Protocols Directory. AG. Gene Ontology. DBGET database.

PAML - Phylogenetic Analysis by Maximum Likelihood. Ziheng Yang Table of contents Introduction PAML is a package of programs for phylogenetic analyses of DNA or protein sequences using maximum likelihood.

It is maintained and distributed for academic use free of charge by Ziheng Yang. ANSI C source codes are distributed for UNIX/Linux/Mac OSX, and executables are provided for MS Windows. PAML is not good for tree making. It may be used to estimate parameters and test hypotheses to study the evolutionary process, when you have reconstructed trees using other programs such as PAUP*, PHYLIP, MOLPHY, PhyML, RaxML, etc. This document is about downloading and compiling PAML and getting started. Downloading and Setting up PAML PAML-X: A GUI for PAML A graphical user interface, called PAML-X, has been written by Bo Xu of Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing.

Bash Reference Manual: This text is a brief description of the features that are present in the Bash shell (version 4.3, 2 February 2014). The Bash home page is This is Edition 4.3, last updated 2 February 2014, of The GNU Bash Reference Manual, for Bash, Version 4.3. Bash contains features that appear in other popular shells, and some features that only appear in Bash. Some of the shells that Bash has borrowed concepts from are the Bourne Shell (`sh'), the Korn Shell (`ksh'), and the C-shell (`csh' and its successor, `tcsh').

This manual is meant as a brief introduction to features found in Bash. 1.1 What is Bash? Bash is the shell, or command language interpreter, for the GNU operating system. Bash is largely compatible with sh and incorporates useful features from the Korn shell ksh and the C shell csh. While the GNU operating system provides other shells, including a version of csh, Bash is the default shell. 1.2 What is a shell? Blank A space or tab character. builtin field \a.
