different types of products and their properties for the sportsman. INSULIN refill Insulin is a protein secreted by the pancreas that acts on the liver to stimulate the formation of glycogen from glucose and to inhibit the conversion of non-carbohydrates to glucose. Insulin also promotes the diffusion of glucose by cells via insulin receptors. Very high concentrations of insulin result in protein synthesis by the highly stimulated muscle. It does this mainly by improving the initiation of the peptide

Abstract Much of our money is spent eating out. Our food is processed‚ refined‚ concentrated‚ sugared‚ salted and chemically engineered to produce high-calorie‚ low-nutrient taste sensations. This problem is unique to westernized peoples. Rural populations in China‚ Japan‚ and Southeast Asia who have little access to rich foods experience few heart attacks. Similarly‚ most people in rural Africa and South and Central America have little fear of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Yet in North America

disulphide bond. It is produced by the beta cells in pancreatic islets to maintain the blood glucose at optimum level. When there is a rise of glucose in the blood especially after meals‚ insulin works to convert glucose into glycogen by glycogenesis as well as into lipid by lipogenesis. However‚ in people with type 1 diabetes‚ their body are not able to supply sufficient insulin for converting the glucose into glycogen as the storage

oxygen‚ while proteins (composed of amino acids) have amino groups (-NH3+) and carboxyl (-COOH) groups. These characteristic subunits and chemical groups impart different properties to the macromolecules. For example‚ monosaccharides such as glucose are polar and soluble in water‚ whereas lipids are nonpolar and insoluble in water. Methods for Identifying Organic Compounds There are several chemical tests available for the identification of the major types of organic compounds in living

The aim of our investigation is to find out whether the use of different sugar isomers with yeast‚ will affect the rate at which the yeast respires at. The sugars to be tested are fructose‚ galactose‚ glucose‚ lactose and sucrose. Their effects on the respiration rate of yeast to be observed through the measurement (cm3) of the displaced water‚ which will tell us how much CO2 has been respired over 2 minutes. To compare the effects an average will be calculated for each and a result will be drawn

experiment used six smith fermentation tubes‚ distilled water and sugar substrates. It composed of six set-ups which used 15ml of 10% yeast suspension‚ 15 ml distilled water and 15 ml of their assigned sugar substrate namely: starch‚ lactose‚ sucrose glucose and fructose respectively. Set-up six was the controlled set-up and did not contain any sugar substrate. The opening of the tube was covered with a cotton ball to prevent oxygen from entering. The set-ups were then observed every five minutes for

alcohol is currently made principally from grains. · Fermentation of starch from grain is somewhat more complex than fermentation of sugars because starch must first be converted to sugar and then to ethanol. · Starch is converted enzymatically to glucose either by diastase presents in sprouting grain or by fungal amylase. · The resulting dextrose is fermented to ethanol with the aid of yeast producing CO2 as co-product. A second co-product of unfermented starch‚ fiber‚ protein and ash known as distillers
