In addition, the experiments stress the various techniques and methods of biochemistry. Laboratory reports are to be presented in the form of a paper suitable for publication in a scientific journal. The laboratory report will consist of the following items. Graphs, figures, tables, diagrams, etc. should be used when appropriate. The lab reports must be typed, word processed or printed in ink.
Lab reports are due within one week of the completion of the experiment.
Points will be deducted for lateness. The reports will be graded and will be counted toward the final grade in the course. Attendance in the laboratory is required and the work must be done at the scheduled time. Excused absences include medically-excused absences or emergencies or prior arranged absences with the consent of the instructor. Three points will be deducted for unexcused absences out of a possible ten hence the maximum score is seven if the report is turned in.
