Chemical T ests for Unknowns Chemical tests have been developed as a means of identifying what functional groups are present in an unknown compound. Since IR and NMR spectroscopy has been developed‚ they are no longer critical to unknown analysis‚ but they can still be useful for confirming what you have determined by spectroscopy. Some of them look cool too! In order for a chemical reaction to work as a chemical test‚ it must 1) create a visible result (a color change‚ a precipitate‚ etc)

Objective: In the present study‚ an attempt was made to improve the bioavailability of Zidovudine by formulating into Orodispersible tablets‚ as it has poor bioavailability and extensive pre systemic metabolism. Methods: In the present study‚ the mucilage extracted from Fenugreek seeds (Trigonella foenum-graecum) was used as superdisintegrant. The oral dispersible tablets were prepared by using wet granulation technique. A three factor two level (23) central composite design was employed for the

1-1 EXPERIMENT 1 ISOLATION OF CAFFEINE FROM TEA In this experiment you will isolate caffeine from tea leaves and prepare the salicylate derivative. Introduction This experiment illustrates the isolation of a naturally occurring product from plant material -- caffeine from tea leaves. The experiment will provide experience in handling relatively small amounts of material and at the same time you will be exposed to several techniques and procedures which are fundamental for survival in an organic

Did you know that for every cigarette you smoke you can lose eleven minutes off your life? Smoking can not only leave you with long term affects you may not be able to get rid of but it will leave you poor and maybe dead. Mankind first came in touch with tobacco approximately eighteen thousand years ago‚ when migrant Asiatic people first intersected the Bering Strait and extended across the continents today known as the Americas‚ where tobacco is native (Gately ‚2001). Mayan Indians of Mexico

be observed individually. This is accomplished in this lab by the technique called thin layer chromatography (TLC). TLC involves a stationary phase‚ which the TLC plates as well as a mobile phase‚ which could be one of two solvents used: ethanol-acetone for TLC. Dyes in a sample separate consequently because of their unique polarities. As a result‚ nonpolar substances travel further than polar substances in this process. The separation of a mixture into its components by TLC transpires because the

1 Experiment 15: Exploring the World of Polymers Objective: In this experiment‚ you will explore a class of chemical compounds known as polymers. You will synthesize and modify polymers‚ test their properties and use a fabrication technique to produce an object from a polymer. Introduction (See Tro‚ pp 985-987.) The importance of both natural and synthetic polymers in our lives cannot be overestimated. The desirable properties of these macromolecules‚ such as tensile strength and flexibility

Identifying sites of protein synthesis in Chlamydomonas using erythromycin and cyclohexamide as protein synthesis inhibitors. October 16‚ 2009 Introduction: In living cells‚ prokaryotic or eukaryotic‚ the synthesis (construction) of proteins is accomplished by similar machinery. Amino acids‚ ribosomes‚ messenger RNA (mRNA)‚ and transfer RNA (tRNA)‚ are all necessary for the building of functional proteins in a cell. Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis in a cell‚ and there are two
