Ketone bodies that are normally produced and used in small quantities can efficiently provide fuel for brain cells but when ketone

aldehyde or a ketone. An aldehyde is a compound containing a formyl group (CHO).The experiment involves diamminesilver complex and a chemical reagent (also known as “Tollens’ reagent”) which in this case is glucose. In a successful experiment a reflective silver metal should precipitate‚ with characteristics identical to that of a mirror’‚ this indicates that there was a presence of aldehydes in the reaction. If no reflective silver surface is seen than that indicates the presence of ketones. Purpose:

In the quest to combat pre-diabetes‚ a lifestyle disease that he was diagnosed with‚ Professor Tim Noakes embarked on and advocated for a Low Carbohydrate High Fat diet. The aim of the LCHF diet is to achieve a nutritional balance of 5% carbohydrates‚ 60-70% fats and 20-30% protein‚ and claims to control insulin levels resulting in weight loss‚ body weight control and prevent insulin resistance. The control of insulin levels and the hindrance of insulin resistance are of great importance since if

Essay #1 1. Mr. Sanchez makes an appointment to see his doctor for pain in his abdominal area. Tests and x-rays reveal kidney stones as well as bones with a moth-eaten appearance. Further questioning reveals a medical history of abnormal reflexes and weakness. What is the problem and what treatment would be recommended? Mr. Sanchez is suffering from hyperparathyroidism which is when the parathyroid glands secrete too much hormones. According to the medical website MedicineNet.com 85% of people

PurposeIn this experiment‚ sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) in acetic acid mixture was used to oxidize emdo-borneol (an alcohol) to camphor (a ketone). The product would then be purified by sublimation and then be analyzed by Infrared spectroscopy and melting point test. Procedure and ObservationsPlease refer to the lab manual and the carbon copy attached. Data and CalculationsWeight of endo-borneol = 0.2013gNo of moles of endo-borneol = 0.2013g/154.25g mol-1 = 1. 305mmolSince one mole of endo-borneol

Diabetic Emergencies Diabetic ketoacidosis ()()((D(KA) I. Definition: Diabetic ketoacidosis is a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones. Diabetic ketoacidosis develops when your body is unable to produce enough insulin and an increase in insulin counter-regulatory hormones (catecholamines‚ cortisol‚ glucagon and growth hormone). Insulin normally plays a key role in helping sugar (glucose) — a major source of energy for
