Experiment 2: Starch Hydrolysis by Amylase Theoretical Background Polymers of carbohydrates are called polysaccharides‚ and make up some of the most important naturally occurring compounds [1]. They have thousands of monosaccharide units linked to each other by oxygen bridges. They include starch‚ glycogen‚ and cellulose‚ all three of which yield only glucose when completely hydrolyzed [2].

Title: Determination of Iron in Natural water by Spectrophotometry. Aim: To determine the iron in natural water by spectrophotometry. Abstract: The iron in natural water was determined by utilizing spectrophotometric analysis. That was done by measuring the absorbance of five Fe(oPH)2+3 standards at 510 nm. From that information‚ a calibration curve was plotted and used to find the amount of Fe2+ that was in two unknown water samples based on the absorbance readings obtained with them at 510nm. The

Determination of Florfenicol in Catfish by UV-mediated High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) 1. Introduction 1.1 Description of the Analyte Florfenicol (C12H14Cl2FNO4S) is a derivative of thiamphenicol. Its structure is identical to that of chloramphenicol – a synthetically developed antibiotic for veterinary use‚ such as treating a wide range of bacterial infections (Hayes p. 7). It is commercially available as 50 percent of Aquaflor® premix‚ which has been approved for the control of bacteria

Unit 4: Solutions and Solubility Lesson 13 Key Questions: 42. a) Cloudy pond water – Heterogenous‚ light cannot pass though‚ can see different parts. b) Apple Juice – Solution‚ organic apple particles(solute)‚ and water(solvent). c) Rainwater – Solution‚ CO2‚ hydrogen(solute)‚ and water(solvent). d) 14-karat gold in jewelry – Heterogenous‚ light cannot pass through. Just because light can’t pass through‚ doesn’t mean it’s not a solution! Gold is a solid solution – it is different metals

CLASSIFICATION TESTS A. Acids There are relatively few suitable tests for carboxylic acids. Classification is based mostly upon solubility tests. If the compound is water soluble‚ test the aqueous solution of your compound with pH paper (also check the pH of the original water). If the compound is water-insoluble and it dissolves in 5% (1.5M) sodium hydroxide and 5% NaHCO3 solutions as performed in your solubility tests‚ it can be classified as a carboxylic acid. Establish an equivalence value

Session 9: The Nervous System - Assignment #2 PhysioEx Assignment : Exercise 3 Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses Activity 1: The Resting Membrane Potential 1. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out of the neuron through the K+ leak channels. Increasing the extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value because when K+ ions diffuse out across the membrane they are leaving behind a net negative charge. 2. Explain

A Diels-Alder Reaction History and Application: The 1950 Nobel prize in chemistry was awarded to Otto Paul Hermann Diels and Kurt Alder for their breakthrough work on the discovery and development of [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions i. This set of reactions are enormously useful in the synthesis of six membered rings in a single stepii. These are used in many pharmaceutical applications. Tamiflu® is a drug which
