2012 CYNTHIA C. GONZAGA Date of Submission INSTRUCTOR: ENGR. JAY S. VILLAN‚ MEP-EE Introduction A multitester or multimeter is a device which can be used to gather data about electrical circuits. A basic multitester can measure resistance‚ voltage‚ and continuity; while more advanced versions may be able to provide additional data. This tool can be very useful to have around the house‚ and anyone who plans on doing electrical repairs should most definitely use a multitester for safety

Insulin Resistance “Insulin resistance is a silent epidemic that increases the chance diabetes and heart disease” according to the insulin resistance and pre-diabetes article; the causes and treatments are confusing and not always effective. According to Gerald Reaven‚ M.D.‚ Sixty to Seventy-five million Americans have insulin resistance; however‚ they do not know it. The endocrinology system is still a mystery to most average Americans today. They are not well-informed between the differences

Does peaceful resistance to laws positively or negatively impact a free society? I feel it ultimately impacts in a positive way by raising awareness of pertinent issues. Non-violent action tends to win more support than does violence. Peaceful resistance is a method of social change that can employ strategies such as strikes‚ sit-ins‚ boycotts and civil disobedience. One example is of the numerous protests against the petroleum industry to transition to a renewable energy source. We have become so

particular antibiotics‚ has helped saved the lives of millions. Antibiotics are powerful medicines that fight bacterial infections. Used properly‚ antibiotics save lives. However as antibiotic resistance increases‚ the rise of super bugs such as Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus becomes more apparent. That is why it is important to carefully follow the instructions given to you when prescribed antibiotics. The feature of this article will be antibiotics as well as Antibiotic resistance. The article

to gain resistance to nickel and aluminium over generations. It discusses the importance of bacteria and how it is used throughout everyday life. It discusses that some bacteria is used for human applications and shows how it can be helpful in certain situations. This report will discuss the background information on E.coli K12 and the uses of bacteria. Throughout the investigation a series of experiments will be conducted to determine if metals such as nickel and aluminium have a resistance to E.coli

Most genetically engineered plant foods have this antibiotic resistance gene. The gene in these plants primarily have two negative effects. Eating these plants/foods that have this gene will lower the effectiveness of antibotics to fight disease when you are taking antibiotics with meals. "Antibiotic-resistance genes produce enzymes

Methicillian-resistant Staphylococcus aureus‚ also known as MRSA‚ is any strain of the bacteria S.aureus that has evolved a resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics‚ which includes the penicillin and cephalosporin family. This creates world-wide concern because there aren’t too many antibiotics left to treat S. aureus if the drug evolves greater resistances to stronger antibiotics. MRSA is one of the top leading causes of nosocomial acquired infections. According to an article featured in one of the

The purpose of this lab is to successfully infiltrate E. coli bacterial cells with a pARA-R plasmid that is antibiotic resistant and has the rfp gene‚ or red fluorescent protein. This can be verified if the E. coli obtains the characteristics of the plasmid when it enters. To start‚ three Petri plates containing agar are needed. On each plate there is a control group and a treatment group; the treatment group being the one with the plasmid. Before the plasmid is put with the E. coli‚ first the bacteria

was a new kind of medicine which is known as antibiotics. Antibiotics is a variety of substances that control the growth or kill bacteria. Since bacteria is evolving rapidly and resisting antibiotics due to the overuse of the medicine‚ reducing the need and use would help slow down the bacteria from evolving. There are many things that can be done to help slow down the resistance of antibiotics. If the trend of this resistance keeps growing antibiotics wont be able to help the human body from a bacterial
