Low Molecular Weight Heparin Paper Low molecular weight heparin is typically used for patients who need to be treated for deep vein thrombosis. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot (thrombus) in a deep vein usually in the legs. These clots are dangerous because they can break loose‚ travel through the bloodstream to the lungs‚ and block blood flow in the lungs (pulmonary embolism). There are many reasons why clots form in a patient. Mainly

Abscisic Acid and Stomatal Closure Abscisic acid is a single compound unlike the auxins‚ gibberellins‚ and cytokinins. It was called "abscisin II" originally because it was thought to play a major role in abscission of fruits. Though ABA generally is thought to play mostly inhibitory roles‚ it has many promoting functions as well. In 1963‚ abscisic acid was first identified and characterized by Frederick Addicott and his associates. They were studying compounds responsible for the abscission

Acids and Bases Shane Purpose- To study the relationship between pH and metabolism. 10/21/13 Materials- see attached Per. D Biology Procedure- see attached Data and Results- see attached Theory- PH stands for the power of hydrogen. People refer to the pH scale as a tool for finding out if a substance is acidic‚ basic‚ or neutral. This scale goes from zero to fourteen. The number seven is neutral. Any number higher than seven on this scale is basic. Any number lower is acidic

Conjugated linoleic acid‚ is a form of linoleic acid‚ an omega-6 fatty acid important to human health (Wang and Jones‚ 2004). The CLA is formed by the bacteria in rumen of certain ruminants but not for humans. It is obtained by humans from dietary sources such as beef‚ lamb and dairy products including milk and cheese (Wang and Jones‚ 2004). CLA is an antioxidant‚ anti-carcinogenic‚ anti-diabetogenic‚ anti-atherosclerotic‚ anti-catabolite as well as an immune system enhancer (Belury‚ 2002). Health

to Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion). Which solute(s) were able to pass through the 20 MWCO membrane? None According to your results‚ which solute had the highest molecular weight? Albumin Which solute displayed the highest rate of diffusion through the 200 MWCO membrane? NACI_ Using the data from Chart 1‚ explain the relationship between the rate of diffusion and the size of the solute. The smaller the solute particle‚ the greater the rate of diffusion.

Studying the pH of Strong Acid‚ Weak Acid‚ Salt‚ and Buffer Solutions The purpose of the current experiment was to determine the pH of various hydrochloric acid and acetic acid solutions‚ to determine the pH of various salt solutions‚ to prepare a buffer solution‚ and determine the effects of adding a strong acid and strong base to the buffer solution versus adding a strong acid and strong base to water. The measured pHs for the hydrochloric acid solutions were 1.6‚ 2.2‚ 2.9‚ and 3.8. The measured

The Effectiveness of Phosphoric Acid on Meat Chapter I. Introduction A. Background Of The Study This experiment was performed to find out if the acidity in Coca Cola could dissolve meat. The testing was done by placing pieces of pork‚ chicken breast and salmon into bowls filled with Coca Cola‚ and observing meat for 5 days. Coca Cola is a popular carbonated beverage that is sold in more than 200 countries. Also known as Coke‚ it can be purchased from vending machines‚ department stores and

Benzoic Acid and Benzoates in Food‚ Drinks and Medicines Benzoic acid and benzoates are common additives to food‚ drinks‚ medicines and cosmetics‚ and they also occur naturally in many plants. They are useful chemicals in manufactured products because they kill or inhibit both bacteria and fungi and can act as preservatives. Benzoic acid and benzoates are considered to be safe chemicals for humans when they’re used in small quantities‚ but there are at least two situations in which even small
