  • Freezing and Boiling Point Changes
    Freezing Point and Boiling Point Changes for Solutions and Solids Lesson Plans and Labs By Ranald Bleakley Physics and Chemistry teacher Weedsport Jnr/Snr High School RET 2 Cornell Center for Materials Research Summer 2005 Freezing Point and Boiling Point Changes for Solutions and Solids Lesson Plans and Labs Summary: Major skills taught: • Predicting changes in freezing and boiling points of water, given type and quantity of solute added. • Solving word problems for changes to boiling points and freezing points of solutions based upon data supplied. • Application of theory to real samples in lab to collect and analyze data. Students will describe the importance to industry of the depression of melting points in solids such as metals and glasses. • Students will describe and discuss the evolution of glass making through the ages and its influence on social evolution. Appropriate grade and level: The following lesson plans and labs are intended for instruction of juniors or seniors enrolled in introductory chemistry and/or physics classes. It is most appropriately taught to students who have a basic understanding of the properties of matter and of solutions. Mathematical calculations are intentionally kept to a minimum in this unit and focus is placed on concepts. The overall intent of the unit is to clarify the relationship between changes to the composition of a mixture and the subsequent changes in the eutectic properties of that mixture. Theme: The lesson plans and labs contained in this unit seek to teach and illustrate the concepts associated with the eutectic of both liquid solutions, and glasses The following people have been of great assistance: Professor Louis Hand Professor of Physics.

Super-resolution Imaging of the Natural Killer Cell Immunological Synapse on a Glass- supported Planar Lipid Bilayer. J. Vis. Exp. (96), e52502, doi:10.3791/52502 (2015). Abstract The glass-supported planar lipid bilayer system has been utilized in a variety of disciplines. One of the most useful applications of this technique has been in the study of immunological synapse formation, due to the ability of the glass-supported planar lipid bilayers to mimic the surface of a target cell while forming a horizontal interface. The recent advances in super-resolution imaging have further allowed scientists to better view the fine details of synapse structure. In this study, one of these advanced techniques, stimulated emission depletion (STED), is utilized to study the structure of natural killer (NK) cell synapses on the supported lipid bilayer.
