Blastocoel
The blastocoel (/ˈblæstəˌsiːl/), also spelled blastocoele and blastocele, and also called cleavage cavity, or segmentation cavity is a fluid-filled or yolk-filled cavity that forms in the blastula during very early embryonic development. At this stage in mammals the blastula is called the blastocyst, which consists of an outer epithelium, the trophectoderm, enveloping the inner cell mass and the blastocoel.

It develops following cleavage of  the zygote after fertilization. It is the first fluid-filled cavity or lumen formed as the embryo enlarges, and is the essential precursor for the differentiated gastrula. In the Xenopus a very small cavity has been described in the two-cell stage of development.

Zygote
A zygote (/ˈzaɪˌɡoʊt/ ⓘ; from Ancient Greek  ζυγωτός (zygōtós) 'joined, yoked', from  ζυγοῦν (zygoun) 'to join, to yoke') is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes.

The zygote's genome is a combination of the DNA in each gamete, and contains all of the genetic information of a new individual organism.

The sexual fusion of haploid cells is called karyogamy, the result of which is the formation of a diploid cell called the zygote (or zygospore in specific cases).
Criticism of Islamism
The ideas and practices of the leaders, preachers, and movements of the Islamic revival movement known as Islamism (also referred to as Political Islam) have been criticized by non-Muslims and Muslims (often Islamic modernists and liberals).

B. Lumbard, Olivier Roy, and Indonesian Islamic group Nahdlatul Ulama.

Tenets of the Islamist movement that have come under criticism include: restrictions on freedom of expression to prevent apostasy from and insults to Islam; that Islam is not only a religion but a governing system; that historical Sharia, or Islamic law, is one, universal system of law, accessible to humanity, and necessary to enforcement for Islam to be truly practiced.

SYBR Gold
SYBR Gold is an asymmetrical cyanine dye. It can be used as a stain for double-stranded DNA, single-stranded DNA, and RNA. SYBR Gold is the most sensitive fluorescent stain of the SYBR family of dyes for the detection of nucleic acids. The SYBR family of dyes is produced by Molecular Probes Inc., now owned by Thermo Fisher Scientific

SYBR Gold is more sensitive than ethidium bromide, SYBR Green I, and SYBR Green II for detecting various types of nucleic acids. SYBR Gold's superior sensitivity is due to the high fluorescence quantum yield of the dye-nucleic acid complexes (~0.6-0.7) and the dye's large fluorescence enhancement upon binding to nucleic acids (~1000-fold). SYBR Gold can detect as little as 25 pg of DNA which makes it >10-fold more sensitive than ethidium bromide for detecting nucleic acids in denaturing urea, gyoxal, and formaldehyde gels, even with 300 nm transillumination.

Cyanine
Cyanines, also referred to as tetramethylindo(di)-carbocyanines are a synthetic dye family belonging to the polymethine group.  Although the name derives etymologically from terms for shades of blue, the cyanine family covers the electromagnetic spectrum from near IR to UV.

Chemically, cyanines are a conjugated system between two nitrogen atoms; in each resonance structure, exactly one nitrogen atom is oxidized to an iminium.  Typically, they form part of a nitrogenous heterocyclic system.

The main application for cyanine dyes is in biological labeling.  Nevertheless, there is a wide literature on both their synthesis and uses, and cyanines are common in some CD and DVD media.
