Identify an unknown carbonyl compound © KCl http://hk.geocities.com/fatherofchemistry Objective To classify a carbonyl compound by a simple test and to identify it by the precipitation of a derivative. Principle In this experiment‚ the unknown compound is either an aldehyde or a ketone from Table 90. In the first part‚ on undergoing Tollen’s & Fehling’s tests‚ ketone will have no reaction. In the second part‚ by preparing a derivative of the compound with 2‚4-dinitrophenylhydrazine

Determining Genotypic Frequencies for Alu Insertion Polymorphism at the PV92 Locus Introduction An Alu element is a short stretch of non-coding DNA found in primates. It gets its name from the single recognition site for the endonuclease Alu I‚ located near the middle of the Alu element. Alu elements are transposable DNA sequences that copy and insert themselves into new chromosome locations. They are regarded as “selfish DNA” because they do not encode protein and appear to only exist for their

Luminol solutions use oxidation reactions to create the bright‚ luminescent‚ blue emission. In order to discover which additive enhances that glow the most and for the longest‚ I studied the data of several tests with varying enhancers added to the luminol. The substances to be compared in this study are as follows: cysteine‚ Cu (II)‚ silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)‚ and zinc sulfide nanoparticles (ZnS-NPs). The first experiment focused on the reaction between alkaline luminol H2O2‚ the most common

Photolytic Degradation of Flupentixol-Melitracen Chapter One Introduction 1 Photolytic Degradation of Flupentixol-Melitracen 2 1. ANTIPSYCHOTIC 1.1 Antipsychotic An antipsychotic also known as neuroleptic is a tranquilizing psychiatric medication which is used to treat psychosis‚ schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Now it is increasingly being used to treat the non-psychotic disorders. Psychosis disorder included delusions or hallucinations. Delusion is the pathological condition

Section 2 EXPERIMENT: DNA & Protein Synthesis Exercise 1 – Modeling DNA 1. List the four bases which are found in DNA. (1 pt) The four bases found in DNA are cytosine‚ adenine‚ guanine and thymine. 2. Fit any six nucleotides together to form a row‚ then list the six nucleotides in the order you used them. Work with your model pieces and try fitting the bases together to make a double strand as shown in Figure 9 of the lab manual. Which nucleotides form pairs

Aspirin Aspirin is a salicylate‚ also known as a non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It is the generic name of acetylsalicylic acid and is used clinically to treat fever‚ pain and inflammation as it works by preventing the formation of prostaglandin. Prostaglandin is the active agent that is responsible for the sensitisation at the nerve endings. It can be administered orally‚ rectally or by intravenous route.

Today‚ aspirin is one of the most widely used medication on this Earth and has been since its popular breakout in the late 1890s. Long before we were born there was no such thing of a medication called aspirin. Instead‚ ancient people used willow leaves and bark from trees to help relieve oneself from pain and fevers. Aspirin as we come to know it in the form of an acetylsalicylic acid‚ was introduced to the world by Chemist Felix Hoffmann who was working at Bayer pharmaceutical company located in

Thus a solution α-naphthol 1a‚ 4-methylbenzaldehyde 2a and tert-butyl isocyanide 3a in EtOH was magnetically stirred at 45 C for 12 hours under an oxygen atmosphere with an equimolar ratio of the three reactants. TLC monitoring of the reaction mixture exhibited formation of a new product‚ which was purified (Table 1‚ entry 1). Identification of its structure by NMR spectroscopy revealed that it was 2-(4-methylbenzoyl)-1-naphthyl N-(tert-butyl)carbamate (4a). Next‚ in order to improve the yield of

In order to read DNA‚ it must be sequenced. This sequencing uses electrophoresis‚ a technique that separates sections of DNA that differ by a base. Electrophoresis used to be done manually‚ but was error prone and time consuming. Now‚ automatic sequencing machines are used. A technician begins the process by pouring gel between two glass plates that are set less than half a millimeter apart. After the gel is set up‚ DNA is put into each of the ninety-six lanes. The DNA sections then move through
