Microscopy is a vital tool used in scientific research and analysis. It involves the use of specialized instruments to observe and study microscopic objects or structures. There are different types of microscopes available, but two of the most commonly used are light microscopy and electron microscopy. In this article, we […]
Cancer and tumors are two related but distinct medical conditions that are often confused with each other. In this article, we will explore the differences between cancer and tumors. What is Cancer? Cancer is a complex and multi-factorial disease that is characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal […]

Nucleic Acids Nucleic acids, the building block of genome it can be either DNA or RNA. The genome is the entire set of genetic material in a haploid cell. There are 46 or 23 pair of chromosomes are present in a cell. The genome resides mainly in the nucleus […]
Transcription is the process by which the genetic information stored in DNA is copied into RNA. This process is essential for the expression of genes and the synthesis of proteins. Transcription occurs differently in eukaryotes and prokaryotes due to differences in the organization of their genetic material. Transcription in Prokaryotes […]
Blood, “The River of Life” as it supports life. It contains the nutrients and oxygen that support living organisms. The cells in the blood are generally synthesized in the bone marrow by a process called haematopoiesis. Blood contains three types of blood cells, namely Erythrocytes or RBC, Leukocytes or […]
Replication is the process by which a cell duplicates its genetic material to pass on to its daughter cells during cell division. The replication process is different in eukaryotes and prokaryotes, which are two distinct types of cells. Read more about Introduction to Molecular Biology In prokaryotes, such […]
Biotechnology is a leading field in the world. Biotechnology is directly and indirectly involved in daily life. It supports not only humans but the whole life on earth. It has various branches including Animal Biotechnology, Plant Biotechnology, Medical Biotechnology, Food & Diary Biotechnology, etc. But everyone doubts when Biotechnology […]
In Biology, specifically in Microbiology Gram Staining is an inevitable technique. It was introduced in the year 1884 by Hans Christian Gram. This staining process can classify a bacteria into Gram Positive and Gram Negative. It can be used as a step in various bacterial diagnosis. Table of Contents […]
A microscope is a device used to visualize materials with a micro size that is not visible to the naked eye. The first microscope was invented by Zacharias Janssen. This type of microscope is called the light microscope as it uses visible light to illuminate the object. The light […]
