interstitial fluid‚ and intracellular fluid are identical‚ but the quantity of each substance varies among the compartments. The most striking differences are the low protein content in interstitial fluid compared with intracellular fluid and plasma and the fact that sodium and chloride ions are largely extracellular‚ whereas most of the potassium ions (approximately 90%) are intracellular. This unequal distribution of ions results in a voltage difference across cell membranes. Extracellular fluid can be

right balance in their lives. Confucius felt that if equilibrium could be restored to the individual‚ then order could be restored to the family‚ to other relationships‚ to the state‚ to the world‚ and to the universe. He described the superior man as being one who could maintain centrality and universality. According to Confucius‚ “When a man pursues the Way and yet remains away from man‚ his course cannot be considered the Way.” I believe this means that if one attempts to pursue balance to better

Drunk driving “Please blow into this machine. Thank you.” If you are a driver‚ this sentence is familiar to you. Many police examine drunk driving at the crossroads every day. Meanwhile‚ numbers of advertisements and messages on TVs and radios persuade us not to drive after drinking. Driving without drinking has become a common understanding. But why do we have to accept this? And what would we do if somebody is drunk driving? Today‚ I hope to convince you that drunk driving is terrible and that

Maple Syrup Urine Disease Maple syrup urine disease or MSUD is a genetically inherited disease‚ characterized by a maple syrup odor found in the sweat‚ urine and earwax of affected individuals. This metabolic disorder was first documented in medical literature in 1954 by John Hans Menkes‚ a pediatric neurologist who would also discover Menkes Disease. People with this condition lack specific enzymes required to metabolize certain amino acids. It is also commonly known as BCKD deficiency‚ branched

Fluid regulation Introduction Our kidneys keep the water in our bodies balanced‚ they do this by controlling the water concentration of blood plasma‚ the job of our kidneys is to control salt levels and control the excretion of urea. Water that is not returned to the blood is excreted in our urine. Why is fluid regulation important? Your body requires water for the cells‚ organs and tissues in the body‚ they use the water to help regulate body temperature and to maintain other functions in

2/5 Word count: You were given five samples of patients’ urine and some Uristix® dipstick. Describe how you used the dipsticks to determine if urine sample contained amounts of protein and / or glucose. To test the given samples for glucose or protein‚ dipsticks were immersed into each of the urine samples for 60 seconds. The colour change was compared with the colour chart on the Uristix® bottle. The detection of glucose in urine is based on the presence of two enzymes‚ glucose oxidase and

Huong Trinh Maple syrup urine disease Summary Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is an inborn error of metabolism which is caused by the branched-chain amino acid metabolism disorder. This disease happens when the body is unable to process certain protein blocks (amino acids) properly‚ then accumulate abnormally in the cells and fluids of the body‚ usually associated with newborn babies. Notably‚ the urine of patients often has a strong maple syrup odor. MSUD patients have inherited one

of the art on Bio-cutting fluids in Machining Submitted by: Abstract The increasing attention to the environmental and health impacts of industrial activities by governmental regulations and by the growing awareness level in the society is forcing industrialists to reduce the use of mineral oil-based metalworking fluids as cutting fluid. Cutting fluids have been used extensively in metal cutting operations for the last 200 years. In the beginning‚ cutting fluids consisted of simple oils
