Lysozyme activity | Observed in tears and saliva | | Connie Jamieson | 3/1/2012 | | Abstract Lysozyme is an enzyme found in both tears and saliva. Each time we blink our eyes‚ our eyelids wash tears over the surface of our eyes. In addition‚ our mouth is continually producing saliva. A spectrophotometer set to 450nm was used to measure the effect of lysozyme on bacteria. The absorbance or optical density was measured for each sample at specific times with a total measuring time of twenty

Because of this and spreading infection through the body pneumonia can cause death. Until 1936‚ pneumonia was the No. 1 cause of death in the United States. Since then‚ the use of antibiotics brought it under control. In 1997‚ pneumonia and influenza combined ranked as the sixth leading cause of death. Pneumonia affects your lungs in two ways.

Experiment 1 The Heat Capacity Ratio of Gases Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to calculate the heat capacity ratio of gases‚ Helium‚ Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide‚ and compare with their theoretical values. Introduction Thermodynamics is the study of heat as it relates to energy and work. There are various properties which all relate to each other when determining the characteristic of a certain substance. One of such properties is heat capacity‚ which is the amount of heat energy
