Osmotic pressure allows a cell to prevent itself from shrinking or swelling and possibly bursting. However‚ it is necessary in some cases to perform these actions to prevent the opposite from occurring‚ that can also be known as stabilizing the osmotic pressure of the cell (Lang‚ 1997). Studies have shown that ions of sodium‚ potassium‚ hydrogen

All of this led to a culmination of a virtually dead IPO that was launched in 1999 during the tech bubble bursting‚ virtually shutting off all options to this struggling company (General Information‚ FDIC). This lead to floating the company until 2001 and it was reported that the company was severally undercapitalized‚ causing the FDIC to launch a full scale

Methylparaben is a member of the paraben family‚ a group of compounds that possess antibacterial and antifungal properties. These agents are esters of para-hydroxybenzoic acid‚ which is why they are collectively called parabens. However‚ in contrast to its cousins‚ ethylparaben‚ butylparaben‚ and propylparaben‚ methylparaben receives its specific name owing to the fact that its chemical structure contains the methyl alkyl group. Methylparaben is found in several fruits‚ in particular blueberries

Introduction: Bacteria need specific living conditions to survive. The ideal conditions for bacterial growth is a warm‚ dark‚ and damp environment. This provides the maximum effectiveness for bacterial growth. The areas in our school that contain the most bacteria would be the water fountains because the bacteria from our mouths drop off on to it when we drink from it‚ and because water fountains are not regularly washed in comparison to weight equipment. Water fountains also provide a warm damp

Domagk’s research involved analyzing thousands of chemicals for their antibacterial properties. In 1932 he tested a red dye‚ Prontosil. The dye itself had no antibacterial properties‚ but when Domagk slightly changed its chemical makeup‚ Prontosil showed

The hypothesis was that if bleach was used‚ it would be the most effective because bleach is commonly used to clean and disinfect various things. The variables that were tested were antibacterial soap and Scope mouthwash for the antiseptics; bleach and ammonia for the disinfectant; and Cipro‚ erythromycin‚ and tetracycline for the antibiotics.
