Introduction Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is defined as the amount of a specified oxidant that reacts with the sample under controlled conditions. The quantity of oxidant consumed is expressed in terms of its oxygen equivalence. Because of its unique chemical properties‚ the dichromate ion (Cr2O72–) is the specified oxidant in Methods

Bleeding Precautions When on Anticoagulant Therapy‚ Adult WHAT IS ANTICOAGULANT THERAPY? Anticoagulant therapy is medicine that helps prevent or reduce blood clots. It is also called blood thinner therapy. Blood clots that form in your blood vessels can be dangerous. They can break loose and travel to the heart‚ lungs‚ or brain. This increases the risk of a heart attack‚ stroke‚ or blocked lung artery (pulmonary embolism). Anticoagulant therapy causes blood to clot more slowly. Anticoagulants

The significance of Therapy If discomfort is a concern then therapy may be the solution. Study and encounters prove that therapy is a extremely effective tool against pains and injuries varying from minor to major. Therefore‚ the prescription of therapy can’t ever be considered a wrong one just in case of treating discomfort or injuries. Just in case whenever a joint complication will be worked with by the aid of therapy‚ a physio therapist may twist or fold the braches getting infirmities into

Cranial Therapy — How it works & when to use it Different theories on how it works Exactly how craniosacral therapy works is still being explored. Scientific research continues to investigate the existence of the craniosacral rhythm and to distinguish it from the heart or respiratory rate. Research to date has been inconclusive and further study is clearly necessary. Dr. Sutherland described a palpable rhythmic movement within the body that occurs in the expansion and contraction of the bones of

Biochemical oxygen demand ( and COD) It is a measure of the amount of oxygen required by bacteria‚ algae‚ sediments and chemicals over a set period of time. BOD is of importance in aquaculture because microbial degradation of organic matter is a major sink for dissolved oxygen‚ a highly important parameter for

Oxygen Exchange and Transport Oxygen exchange or respiration takes place at a respiratory surface; a boundary between the external environment and the interior of the body. Gas exchange is the process by which oxygen and carbon dioxide (the respiratory gases) move in opposite directions across an organism’s respiratory membranes‚ between the air or water of the external environment and the body fluids of the internal environment. Oxygen is needed by cells to extract energy from organic molecules

If you’re down in these months‚ may be suffering from seasonal affective disorder (SAD). In the US‚ people have fought depression with an extra dose of artificial light during the day. Now‚ a new study found that light therapy is effective for treating other types of depression as well. For example‚ people with SAD may have a feeling that lingers over the winter months‚ sometimes even

OXYGEN-CARBON CYCLE The carbon-oxygen cycles are actually two independent cycles. However‚ both these cycles are interconnected as well as interdependent on each other to some extent. There are four processes involved in the completion of the carbon-oxygen cycle. Oxygen-carbon cycle processes are: * Photosynthesis Plants undergo photosynthesis that helps them produce energy and food for themselves. During photosynthesis‚ plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and absorb water (H2O) with the help

If a plant makes 30 grams of glucose (C6H12O6)‚ how many moles of glucose has it produced? 0.17 moles The health of bones depends upon a good supply of calcium. If a person consumes 0.06 g of calcium‚ how many moles of calcium did he consume
