Chloroform is a halogenated organic compound known by its nonsystematic name. The chemical name for chloroform is trichloromethane. The molecular formula of this synthetic chemical is CHCl3. A particular odor‚ considered by some to be pleasant‚ will let one know chloroform is in the room. Because without it‚ the lack of color of this clear liquid makes it difficult to identify. Be fair warned: trichloromethane is volatile. It also sinks in water because it is denser. Chloroform is nonflammable

The Effect of Solvent Exposure and Temperature on Beet Cell Membrane Integrity Introduction: • Cell membranes are vital to proper cellular function • Cell membranes consist of a lipid bilayer made up of phospholipids • Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules meaning they have a dual nature in that they show both hydrophilic (water-loving) and hydrophobic (water-fearing) properties • The amphipathic nature of phospholipids causes them to spontaneously form bilayers in water

History Chloroform also known as trichloromethane‚ had been in use as an anesthetic since 1861 when the American Civil War. Chloroform quickly became the favorite for military doctors because it was non-flammable and it took action quickly. Chloroform was first made in 1831 by American chemist Dr. Samuel Guthrie‚whose intention was to create a cheap pesticide. It was first used as an anesthetic in 1847 by a Scottish physician named Sir James Young Simpson. Doctors were all for the use of Chloroform

Aim: Investigate the effect of different temperatures and chemicals including various pH levels‚ alcohol and detergent on the cell membrane structure as well as function. Hypothesis: Increasing the temperature and pH levels which the beetroot membrane cells are exposed to will increase the amount of dye that passes out of the membrane. Materials: Part A • Bunsen Burner‚ Tripod and a Wire Gauze • 250mL Beaker • A 100° thermometer • Matches • 10mL measuring cylinder • Sticky labels and a Pen

by using the application of membrane have become highly demand in various industries. In this newly separation process ‚ the membrane function as a semi-permeable barrier and the separation process occur by the membrane controlling the rate of movement of various molecules between two liquid phases ‚ two gas phases or a mixture of a gas phase and liquid phase. In industries‚ many companies have high demand on both quality and quantity of water for production. Membrane process can be used to separate

BIOL 2010 ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY I Chapter 4: TISSUES AND MEMBRANES Outline of Notes I. Introduction. A. General: Cells are highly specialized and interdependent on one another. Groups of similar cells performing similar functions are called Tissues The study of tissues is called Histology. Organs are made of tissues. A detailed understanding of tissues will greatly help your understanding of organs and organ systems later in this course. Tissues are classified into 4 main types:

Membrane Processing MEMBRANEFILTRATION A membrane or‚ more properly‚ a semipermeable membrane‚ is a thin layer of material capable of separating substances when a driving force is applied across the membrane. Membrane filtration enables to separate particles with a diameter smaller than the pore diameter in the membrane from the liquid feed‚ by applying a driving force (pressure) over the membrane. The membrane technology consists principally of Microfiltration (MF)‚ Ultrafiltration

BIOSC 048: Problem Set Questions 1. Given that cell A has significantly more nongated K+ channels than cell B‚ which cell has the larger resting membrane potential? Explain. If the permeability to K is higher in A than in B‚ then the resting membrane potential (rmp) will be closer to the equilibrium potential in cell A‚ which means the rmp will be more negative in cell A than in cell B; or in other words‚ the potential difference will be LARGER in cell A. 2. Predict the effect of a reduced
