Environmental Biotech Final

I can't seem to get the entry box to work (probably a user issue), so I'll ask out here:
In PCR is Taq the enzyme that unzips the DNA?-Erin

Hey now I'm having the same problem as you, which is strange. No, I don't think that Taq denatures the DNA - I'm pretty sure that heat denatures the DNA, and then Taq copies it from the primers. Or something like that - this website explains it well http://www.dnalc.org/ddnalc/resources/shockwave/pcranwhole.html - Annelise
OK, yeah that makes more sense. -Erin

A second way to remove phospherous besides natural remediation (ie duckweed)? Chemical Remediation?
-Erin

Alum is a chemical means of removing phosphorus that makes it precipitate out. -Annelise
Thank you! -Erin

np - you wouldn't happen to have the notes about alkalinity titration, do you? I have my lab but not the explanatory titration graph, and I'm a little bit lost. -Annelise
