The ability to successfully make solutions is a basic laboratory skill performed in virtually all biological and chemical experiments. 

The light microscope is an instrument used by researchers in many different fields to magnify specimens to as much as a thousand times their original size.

Decontamination is essential for laboratory biosafety, as the accumulation of microbial contamination in the laboratory can lead to the transmission of disease.

A mineral acid (or inorganic acid) is defined as a water-soluble acid derived from inorganic minerals by chemical reaction as opposed to organic acids.

Benchtop immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC), of polyhistidine tagged proteins is easily mastered by undergraduate students and has become the most widely used protein purification method in the modern literature. 

Investigating multiple, endogenous post-translational modifications for a target protein can be extremely challenging. 

A protocol is presented to rapidly test the thermal stability of proteins in a variety of conditions through thermal shift assays and nano differential scanning fluorimetry. 

We demonstrate the usage of Bio3D-web for the interactive analysis of biomolecular structure data. 

Gel purification is used to recover DNA fragments after electrophoretic separation. 

In molecular biology, ligation refers to the joining of two DNA fragments through the formation of a phosphodiester bond.
