FDA CONTINUES WARNING ON COUNTERFEIT TOUCH BLOOD GLUCOSE TEST STRIPS Back in 2005‚ Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has alerted the public to counterfeit blood glucose test strips being sold in the United States claiming different models and under different brands. Upon tracing the origin of these counterfeited medicines‚ the authorities had found same copies distributed in developing countries including Jakarta‚ Indonesia‚ Bangkok‚ Thailand and some part of Northern Australia.

Determining the Production of Glucose During Changes in Temperature and pH‚ and Manipulation of Specificity and Cofactors BIOL-1406-SL8 November 16‚ 2012 Abstract Enzymes are biological catalysts. They work by lowering the activation energy needed to initiate a chemical reaction. Enzymes work within an optimal temperature and optimal pH. Enzymes are highly specific for a single substrate. The Enzyme is usually much larger in size than the substrate it binds to. In some cases‚ an enzyme requires

What we wanted to aim is the comparative and qualitative analysis of Coke‚ Sprite‚ and Royal. We tested the Comparative pH ‚ Carbon Acid and Glucose content of different soft drinks. Since soft drinks like Coca-Cola‚ Royal and Sprite are common beverages that Filipinos like to drink‚ It is usually sold in a lot of stores and markets. (This beverages taste sweet and has a tangy feeling in your

Extraction of DNA from Calf or Hog Thymus/Isolation of Yeast RNA I. Abstract Nucleic acids may be divided into two groups RNA and DNA. DNA contains almost all the genetic information while RNA serves as the bridge between the DNA and proteins. Study of both DNA and RNA initially involves proper extraction/isolation. The storehouse of eukaryotic DNA is the nucleus (and in the mitochondria)‚ so experimentally‚ DNA is extracted from tissues that have a high nuclear to cytoplasmic mass ratio‚ such

of glucose during physical activity? How? The factors that influence the body’s use of glucose during physical activity are: diet‚ activity intensity level‚ and activity duration. (Whitney and Rolfes 466-468) First of all you must have a carbohydrate rich diet in order to store glycogen. Abundant glycogen stores enables people to perform physical activity longer at higher intensity. Glucose provided by carbohydrates (Whitney and Rolfes 466-468) Intensity of activity affects glucose use

By increasing the temperature‚ the time it takes (the rate) for the solution to completely change to colourless will be increased. Thus it can be said‚

Cellular Respiration  Cellular respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules‚ like glucose‚ to carbon dioxide and water. C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O → 12H2O + 6 CO2 The energy released is trapped in the form of ATP for use by all the energy-consuming activities of the cell. The process occurs in two phases: glycolysis‚ the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid the complete oxidation of pyruvic acid to carbon dioxide and water In eukaryotes‚ glycolysis occurs in the cytosol.

This involves all the metabolic processes taking place In the body as well as the blood‚ tissue fluid and all the contents in the body ’s cells. There are a range of variables from heart rate to the blood glucose levels that the body will take into account. Negative feedback will occur when something changes from

Summary This purpose of this experiment was for students to do the colony count methods‚ estimating the viable cell number of commercial active dried yeasts (ADY). This experiment allowed the students to perform the plate count technique by serial dilution and two common methods‚ spread plate and pour plate to determine the colony forming unit (CFU) of yeasts A ten-fold dilution is used in this experiment‚ the sample is diluted until it reached the 10-9 dilution. Plating for spread plate started from
