    In this paper, I explore the murder of Christian H. Schindeldecker and how the police were able to find and prosecute the murderer, Edward Gottschalk. I recount the actions of Chief of Police John O\u27Connor and his men as they follow the clues and with a little luck connect the dots of the mysterious murder. Thirteen days after Schindeldecker was murdered, Gottschalk was arraigned for murder. Solving the murder of Christian Schindeldecker was one of the best cases of detective work ever done in Minnesota. Following the firsthand account of Chief Deputy Sheriff Frank Robert Jr., court papers, and contemporary newspapers, the unfurling of the case was done

    Analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Circadian Rhythms in Continuous Culture

    The circadian rhythm is a roughly 24-hour cycle in the physiological processes of organisms. There have been many studies on the circadian rhythms in other model organisms, but not in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To study the rhythm in S. cerevisiae, the levels of GAP dehydrogenase were observed. After the baseline levels were recorded, the conditions were changed to see if the circadian rhythm could be manipulated. The importance of identifying and studying the circadian oscillators in S. cerevisiae is to understand how the circadian rhythm is altered in differing conditions. The purpose of this experiment was to identify how changing the light and dark cycles affected the overall rhythms of S. cerevisiae

    It is essential when studying the circadian rhythm in cells to be able to effectively stop them in time. In this experiment, we tested what would be the most successful killing agent on Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Six different agents were tested at different concentrations and amounts. After the S. cerevisiae was added to the test tube containing the agent, it was streaked on a plate after 5 and 10 minutes. The plates were incubated and then checked for growth. Ethanol was the most efficient killing agent. After an effective killing agent is determined, it can be used in further experiments measuring Gapdehydrogenase activity using a colorimetric assay to examine the circadian rhythm in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Gapdehydrogenase results will also be presented
