Chemical Senses OLFACTION The sense of smell. Begins with the detection of molecules suspended in the air Olfactory stimuli Must be soluble in fat Taken through the nostrils and circulated within the nasal cavities connected to the nostrils. Olfactory epithelium Thin sheet of cells which contain neural receptors for olfaction Contains olfactory receptor cells and glia-type support cells that produce mucus Also contains basal cells which give rise to new receptors when needed Olfactory

Chemical Proportionality (Carbonate and Hydrochloric Acid) Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is what happens when a solid substance‚ a metal carbonate is added slowly to a solution of an acid. We are finding methods of determining acid concentration. For us to balance certain equations‚ we will use a stoichiometry. For this experiment‚ we will need to set up the ratio and finding the concentration of HCI. Procedure: • Grab 4 different beakers. • Add a small amount of sodium carbonate

Application of statistics in Pharmaceutical industry * * * Bookmark Although the advancement of medicine has prolonged and improved the life of many people over the years‚ it is important to remember that it is not an exact science. While some treatments do seem to offer a complete ’cure’ for any particular ailment universally‚ the vast majority of medicinal treatments do not. As such‚ it is important that statistics are used in medicine in order to justify the development and subsequent

Chemical Separation Introduction: The objective of this experiment was to extract the pigments from spinach leaves‚ perform Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) on the spinach leaf extract‚ and then determine the best solvent mixture to use to separate the pigments in the extract. The pigments are located inside the chloroplast walls in the cells of the spinach leaves. In order to obtain the pigments the cell walls must be broken down thus exposing the pigment containing chloroplasts. Upon
