October 7‚ 2013 CASE STUDY (Qualitative and Quantitative Methods for Endoparasite Detection) Introduction Parasitic infections are considered to be a public health problem of global importance by the World Health Organization. The Philippine government has been creating projects to help eradicate this public health problem in the country and although the percentage of infected people has decreased‚ this has not been fully successful just yet. Successful eradication of parasites would involve

Chromatographic Separation of Fluorene and Fluorenone Abstract: A mixture of Fluorene (1) and Fluorenone (2) was separated by column chromatography. Chemical Equation: Fluorene (1) Fluorenone (2) Mp 114C mp 83C MW 166.22 MW 180.21 Introduction: Column chromatography was invented by Tswett in 1906 so that his study of the chemistry of chlorophyll could be facilitated. Tswett made significant advances in the method and demonstrated its applicability to the separation

mixture is dissolved in diethyl ether (common name is ether). Both components are soluble in this solvent. Then a 1 M NaOH solution is used to extract the benzoic acid in the form of its water-soluble salt‚ sodium benzoate (three extractions to ensure complete removal)‚ leaving the neutral compound in the ether layer. The three aqueous extracts are combined and the two components are recovered as follow: 1. The neutral compound by washing‚ drying and evaporating the ether layer. 2. Benzoic acid by

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to synthesize Lidocaine from 2‚6-dimethylaniline‚ using diethyl amine‚ 2-chloroacetyl chloride‚ acetic acid‚ and toluene. The Lidocaine was made by adding 2‚6-dimethylaniline to 2-chloroacetyl chloride in acetic acid. Sodium acetate is added in order to make the compound soluble. The product is dried‚ then treated with diethyl amine and toluene. This is refluxed using a water-cooled reflux condenser. The vapor is condensed by the cold water as the compound

I will be telling you my short little paper on the History of Anesthesia. I will be telling what some terms mean that will be used in anesthesia history. Also I will be telling a some dates from years before our time on how anesthesia came from and who was there‚ and what drugs came out. First I will be starting out with several definition of the term anesthesia. The absence of normal sensitiation‚ especially to pain‚ as induced by an anesthetic substance or by hypnosis or as occurs

122°C. Therefore‚ there were errors that occurred within the experiment. One source of error was from the separation process. Some of the aqueous solution in the separatory funnel containing the ether could have potentially been drained off with the product and the NaOH. This would have caused some ether to remain in the final product which would cause a larger molecular weight to occur and the product would have a lower melting point. Another source of error could have been having leftover impurities
