iTRAQ (isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation) is a non-gel based technique used to identify and quantify proteins from different sources in one single experiment. It uses isotope coded covalent tags. iTRAQ is used in proteomics to study quantitative changes in the proteome.

## Procedure

The method is based on the covalent labeling of the N-terminus and sidechain amines of peptides from protein digestions with tags of varying mass. There are currently two mainly used reagents: 4-plex and 8-plex, which can be used to label all peptides from different samples/treatments. These samples are then pooled and usually fractionated by nano liquid chromatography and analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). A database search is then performed using the fragmentation data to identify the labeled peptides and hence the corresponding proteins. The fragmentation of the attached tag generates a low molecular mass reporter ion that can be used to relatively quantify the peptides and the proteins from which they originated, using software such as the freely available i-Tracker.

### Book Organization

This book is divided into Chapters, which are further divided into sections. The section pages are those which contain the content for reading. The book page contains the complete table of contents, while each chapter page contains the table of contents only for that chapter. Given this explanation, navigation should be self explanatory using the small links in the top left. However, additional navigation capabilities will be added in the future to make things even easier.

### Definition of key terms

When key terms appear in the text they are denoted in one of two ways.
* If the key term is defined within the text, directly before or after the term appears, then it is shown as italicized text.
* If the term is left to be formally defined at the end of the section(bottom of page), then it will be shown in boldface text.

# Chemistry 101/Elements and Atoms: The Basics of Chemistry/Purpose of The Periodic Table
## History of The Periodic Table(s)

One of the original periodic tables was a creation of Dmitri Mendeleev, a Russian scientist.
After becoming a teacher, Mendeleev wrote a definitive two-volume textbook at that time: Principles of Chemistry (1868–1870). As he attempted to classify the elements according to their chemical properties, he noticed patterns that led him to postulate his Periodic Table. Mendeleev was unaware of the other work on periodic tables going on in the 1860s. He first made a small table following a particular pattern, and by adding additional elements following this pattern, developed his extended version of the periodic table, pictured here.
As you can see the table consists of rows, and columns. In the case of a periodic table, the rows are referred to as periods, and the columns are referred to as groups. This table is very similar to the modern periodic table. In the modern periodic table there are seven periods, and eighteen groups. The labeling of the groups in the table can vary from country to country. You will see more on this soon.

## Conclusions Can be Revised

Conclusions can, and should be revised. A conclusion can change based on new evidence and observations. However, an observation should never change based on new evidence or further observation. An observation, by definition, should only describe the physical phenomenon occurring in a particular situation. Again, an observation describes what is happening only as it is seen.

# Process of the Scientific Method

1.) Ask a question 2.) Do background research 3.) Construct a hypothesis 4.) Conduct an experiment to test your hypothesis 5.) Analyze the data and draw a conclusion
# Stafford Gambit
## 6.d3??

Although better than 6.f3??, the move gives Black a winning tactic. Instead of moving the knight away, Black has the move 6...Bc5!, sacrificing the knight.
Targeting the weak f-pawn, White's best move is blocking with 7. Be3. After the bishops trade 8...Qh4+ wins the rook for a knight, a common theme in the Stafford Gambit.
More commonly, White captures the knight with 7. dxe4. This allows 7...Bxf2+, sacrificing the bishop. If the White king captures the bishop, Black will capture the undefended queen. Otherwise, the White king will move up and 8...Bg4+ wins the queen.

# Chess Opening Theory/1. e4/1...e5/2. Nf3/2...Nf6/3. Nxe5/3...Nc6/4. Nxf7/4...Kxf7
## 4...Kxf7

In the Pusab Countergambit, after the moves 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.Nxe5 Nc6 4.Nxf7, black can choose to take the white knight with 4...Kxf7. This leads to an exposed black king, but also leaves white down a knight early in the game.
White's main plan after 4...Kxf7 is to exploit the exposed black king and try to develop their pieces quickly to launch an attack. One common way to do this is to play 5.d4, aiming to control the center and open lines for the bishop and queen.
The line 5. d4 Nxe4 6. Qh5+ Kg8 is a surprising and uncommon trap that white can set. If black blunders with 6...Kg8??, white can deliver a shocking mate with 7. Qd5#!. This is a checkmate because the black king is trapped by its own pieces and has no legal moves, while the white queen attacks it.
However, it's important to note that 6...Kg8?? is a blunder and not a move that a well-prepared player would make. A better move for black would be 6...g6, blocking the check and also attacking the white queen.
Remember, chess is a game of strategy and every move has potential consequences. It's up to the player's judgment to decide whether a move aligns with their overall game strategy. The Pusab Countergambit offers an aggressive and tactical approach to the game, but it also requires careful planning and execution.
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.Nxe5 Nc6 4.Nxf7 Kxf7
# Stafford Gambit - Main Line
## 6.Nc3?

The White knight develops into the center and protects the e-pawn. This is not the best move because Black can win back their pawn with the aggressive move 6...Ng4. The only move which protects the f-pawn is Be3, though Black can take with their knight and then bishop, now even in material.
Black holds a comfortable advantage because the bishop and threat of the queen swinging over prevents White from castling.

# Stafford Gambit
## 5...Ne4

Rather than moving their knight back, Black plants his knight in the middle of the board. It aims at the weak f-pawn and White is tempted to remove the knight from the square. The inconspicuous move actually sets up a trap if White pushes their 6. d3 or 6. f3 pawn. Instead, a good response for White is 6. d4, creating a strong center in the middle of the board.

## 4. Nxf7!? - Pusab Countergambit

The Pusab Countergambit is a variation of the Stafford Gambit, which is a line in Petrov's Defense¹². The sequence of moves is as follows:
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. Nxe5 Nc6 4. Nxf7
In this sequence, white sacrifices a knight on f7 to capture the pawn, leading to an exposed black king¹². This gambit is known for its ability to generate traps, despite being disliked by computers¹².
After 4.Nxf7, black's king is forced to move, and white can gain a tempo by attacking the black king. However, this also leaves white's knight vulnerable and potentially trapped behind enemy lines¹².
Despite the risks, the Pusab Countergambit can lead to complex and interesting positions. It requires precise play from both sides, and a single mistake can lead to a quick defeat¹².
According to lichess.org, white has a win rate of 53% in this line¹². This suggests that while the Pusab Countergambit is risky, it can be effective if played correctly¹².
Remember, chess is a game of strategy and every move has potential consequences. It's up to the player's judgment to decide whether a move aligns with their overall game strategy. The Pusab Countergambit offers an aggressive and tactical approach to the game, but it also requires careful planning and execution¹².
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.Nxe5 Nc6 4.Nxf7!?
# Stafford Gambit
## 6.f3??

6. f3 is a tempting move to kick out the knight from the center, but allows a devastating check from Black. After 6...Qh4+, 7.Ke2 immediately loses with a forced checkmate (see below). The other option is 7.g3 Nxg3, losing a rook for a knight and destroying the kingside.

# Stafford Gambit
## 5.e5

White maintains their material advantage and kicks the Black knight from its square. This aggressive move now enables the knight to jump forward on the board.
The common replies for Black are 5...Ne4 or 5...Ng4, putting pressure on the weak f-pawn. The former move sets up White to make a mistake by pushing with 6. d3 or 6. f3. The latter move threatens the e5 pawn which White pushed.

# Donkey Kong Country/Kongs
## Donkey Kong

Donkey Kong, or DK for short, is the head ruler of Kongo Bongo Island who owns an enormous banana hoard. When he hears the bad news of the Kong's banana hoard being stolen by the Kremlings, he embarks on a journey to retrieve his stolen bananas. This strong ape is capable of pounding many enemies but cannot do this quest alone and requires his friends' help. His main companion during this journey is Diddy Kong.

## Diddy Kong

Diddy Kong is Donkey Kong's nephew. He is trapped inside a DK barrel and must wait for DK to help free him before he joins Donkey Kong on his quest. This little chimp doesn't have DK's ground pound ability.

## Cranky Kong

Cranky is DK's father, and gives certain advice to Donkey Kong. He really doesn't want to help DK, because he only cares about the island and himself. He's old, with a cane and rocking chair, and scolds DK and Diddy a lot. Though he is wise, he can certainly be a jerk at time.

## Funky Kong

DK and Diddy's bud, Funky takes them all over the island to the places where the banana guardian has been beaten, and the place you're currently working on. In the Game Boy versions he also runs a minigame called Funky's Fishing where the goal is to catch a certain amount of sea creatures (in one case, pieces of trash) before the time runs out.

## Candy Kong

DK's girlfriend, whom he talks about with Diddy a lot, is Candy Kong. Candy runs Candy's Save Barrel and can save your game anywhere. If you are on your way to a new part of the island and don't have Funky's Flights unlocked yet (other than Gangplank Galleon), you need to go back to the part where you just beat the banana guardian and save the game in case you die before reaching Candy's and have to start over. In the Game Boy Advance versions, Candy's Save Point is replaced with Candy's Dance studio, which is a mini-game that functions somewhat like Dance Dance Revolution and Parrapa the Rapper, only fitted to the GBA's button scheme.
