Abstract In this piece of coursework I have been investigating the synthesis of Aspirin and checking for presence and purity of Aspirin. Throughout this coursework we have looked at the history of Aspirin; industrial manufacturing; making salicylic acid; the preparation of Aspirin; recrystallization and purity; melting point; thin layer chromatography (TLC) and titration of Aspirin. I’ve learned a lot about Aspirin‚ how it works and how it is made. We found out that the Aspirin we made and used

Type 1 diabetes Type 1 diabetes occurs when the pancreas is unable to make enough insulin. Insulin is a hormone that acts as a key to let glucose from the food we eat pass from the blood stream into the cells to provide energy. What causes the condition? The exact cause of type 1 diabetes is unknown. It is thought that a viral infection‚ makes triggers the immune system to destroy the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas in people who have a genetic history of diabetes. . At this stage nothing

taken a college level class since 1993 and only took a Nursing Math class which in my opinion is not very advanced. It was during the first module‚ I became much more at ease with taking this class gaining the confidence I needed to successfully complete it. My knowledge was definitely improved because ‚aside from graphing‚ I didn’t know or couldn’t remember any of the concepts of this course. My work was strong until Module 1 case study. Got a D-‚ which bothered me greatly but also motivated

Type 1 Diabetes- Usually diagnosed in children and young adults‚ and was previously known as juvenile diabetes. The body does not produce insulin. The body breaks down the sugars and starches you eat into a simple sugar called glucose‚ which it uses for energy. Insulin is a hormone that the body needs to get glucose from the bloodstream into the cells of the body. With the help of insulin therapy and other treatments‚ even young children can learn to manage their condition and live long‚ healthy

Osmosis in Potato Cells Interpretation My results show what I predicted would happen. My prediction was that as the concentration of sucrose increased the amount of water moving in or out of the potato would change. A low concentration of sucrose solution would make the potato increase in length and mass (become turgid). A high concentration of sucrose solution would make the potato shrink (plasmolysed) We can see this occurred‚ as at 0.1mol of sucrose solution the potato’s size increased by an

Before starting your coursework The coursework is in two parts‚ but they are linked. This is done so that you can receive feedback on Part 1 to help you with Part 2. Choose a country to analyse: it cannot be the UK as many of the lecture examples are from the UK. It is recommended that you analyse your "own" country but you do not have to. Be careful though‚ countries like Nigeria have so little information available that it is very hard to obtain regulatory information and Case Study examples
