Other nitrogen containing compounds Catecholamine: Dopamine‚ norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and epinephrine (adrenaline) are biologically active amines and are collectively called as Catecholamine. * Dopamine and norepinephrine functions as neurotransmitters. Outside the nervous system‚ norepinephrine and its methylated derivative‚ epinephrine regulates carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. They are released from storage vehicles in the adrenal medulla in response to stress (fright‚ exercise‚ cold

EXPERIMENT 5- A FISCHER ESTERIFICATION SYNTHESIS OF PEAR OIL One of the major uses of Esterification (C(=O)-C-R) is forming compounds with different odors which can be used to make different synthetic and natural flavorings. Using the chemical and physical properties of organic compounds‚ an ester was catalyzed from the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol‚ producing an odor similar to that of pear oil. The mechanism of this Fischer- Esterification process is outlined as follows:

Without oxygen‚ life itself would be nonexistent. Imagine what would happen if wounds did not get better‚ incisions did not heal‚ and burns did not improve. This is where hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) comes into play. Oxygen is necessary for the replenishment of tissues‚ healing of the body and assisting with general ailments. HBOT is used for a wide variety of treatments usually as requested in a medical care plan (Society‚ 1996). In this paper I will introduce what hyperbaric oxygen therapy

for yoga practitioners to help and prepare them in theirMeditation process. In our respiration process‚ we breathe in or inhale oxygen into our body‚ going through our body systems in a form of energy to charge our different body parts. Then we exhale carbon dioxide and take away all toxic wastes from our body. Through the practice of Pranayama‚ the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide is attained. Absorbing prana through breath control links our body‚ mind‚ and spirit. But life is full of stress
