Coconut oil is a popular nutritional oil derived from the flesh of matured coconuts. Coconuts have long been a primary source of food throughout the tropics and their many industrial and cosmetic applications have made them a valuable commodity. Coconut oil is heat stable‚ making it suitable for cooking at high temperatures‚ it’s slow to oxidize‚ resists rancidity and has a shelf life of approximately two years or more (virgin coco creme created through a wet-milling process has an indefinite shelf

Proteus vulgaris Antibiotic Sensitivity Assay By: David Toelkes BIO 225 June 12‚ 2012 Lab Partners Alexis Blackmon Cheryl Cardiff Megan Dereani Logan Freeman Abstract Development of bacterial resistance to the antimicrobial drugs identified the need to determine a given bacterium’s susceptibility or resistance to a given drug which prompted W. M. M. Kirby and A. W. Bauer to develop a single disk method for susceptibility testing. This experiment used the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion

Researchers have identified the activity of Silver NPs exerted the antibacterial effect in two steps. First‚ they changed the membrane potential and reduced adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase activities‚ thus reducing the metabolism process. Secondly‚ they declined the subunit of the ribosome for tRNA binding‚ thus collapsing its biological mechanism. At the same time‚ they proved to be less toxic to mammal cells [26]. Silver NPs with a small size and enhanced surface area produce some electronic

environmental benefits. It provides below ground carbon sequestion in addition to its above ground up take due to its rapid growth. Arundo stems produced during the first growing season are unbranched and photosynthetic. It grows spontaneously and abundantly from heavy clays to lose sands and gravelly soils‚ but prefers wet drained soils where it produces monotypic dense stands‚ very competitive with weeds. In the Philippines‚ old folks use the stickcane shoots to cure newly castrated pig’s wound. This is

Philippines is being applied as lactifuge to the breast of women. The roots present several uses. They may be used to treat venereal disease when given fresh‚ while a tincture made from it is reported to be used as a sedative‚ anesthetic and vulnerary. Leaves are also given internally in decoction for fevers. When boiled in oil‚ they exude a balsam which is used by the natives to alleviate eye complaints. Sampaguita flower has many uses‚ people just ignore it because of the modern world we have now.

Introduction This lab’s purpose was to determine whether Salicylic Acid made from methyl salicylate is the same as Salicylic Acid made from benzene. This information can be found by comparing the difference in melting points of the two samples of Salicylic Acid. Here are the physical properties of Salicylic Acid and the mechanism of reactions that occurred in this lab. How Salicylic Acid is derived: Procedure/Results First‚ .26mL of 2.0mmol methyl Salicylate was measured and put

ABSTRACT The objective of this research is to produce second generation biodiesel from Pongomia Pinnata seed oil using a microwave assisted transesterification. Pongomia Pinnata seed oil is obtained after the mechanical extraction of rubber seed is using Soxhlet Extractor. The alcohol used in this research is methanol which is used to react with Pongomia Pinnata seed oil with a base or acid catalyst to produce methyl ester. Acid catalyst used in this research is potassium hydroxide

Liquid Crystals from Coconut Oil Fatty Acids - Investigatory Project Liquid Crystals from Coconut Oil Fatty Acids Abstract Liquid crystals are fluids that are between the solid and conventional liquid phases. Liquid crystals are in widespread use‚ especially in optical technologies. They are synthesized by combining fatty acids with cholesterol. This study aims to utilize coconut oil as an alternative source of fatty acids for synthesizing liquid crystals since coconut is cheap and abundant
