The alternative medicine with medicinal herbs in the treatment of liver disease‚ have some usage than help the liver to healing. 1. Stimulate the function of the liver Example: Dandelion 2. The milk thistle could lead to a significant reduction in liver-related mortality. 3. Some research indicates that turmeric may be useful in treatment of hepatitis B and hepatitis C. 4.

Abstract: The Enzyme Lab results where when the liver was frozen‚ its reaction was fast‚ and when it was hot‚ it was slow‚ and the liver that was at room temperature reacted slowly to medium. Introduction: The Enzyme Lab is to conduct investigations to determine the most favorable conditions for the most efficient enzyme activity. Variables to be used testing include temperature‚ pH values and surface area. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions‚ which would otherwise

Use the experimental design and the BioLab Guide provided to assist with your report write up. Safety Considerations: You must have the risk assessment checked before continuing. NOTE: For this task you are required to submit a journal which documents

Title: Enzyme Activity Aim: To investigate the activity of the enzyme catalase in liver and potatoes‚ and to investigate the effect of temperature‚ surface area‚ pH and certain chemicals on the activity of catalase. Equipment: Dilute hydrochloric acid solution x 1ml 10 volume hydrogen peroxide x 100ml Copper sulphate solution x 1ml Aluminum nitrate solution x 1ml Zinc nitrate solution x 1ml dilute NaOH solution x 1ml Mortar and pestle x 1 25ml Beaker x 1 Hot plate x1

result of respiration. Urea is produced in the liver from excess amino acids. Where are the substances excreted? Carbon dioxide is passed from the cells of respiring tissues into the blood stream. It is transported in the blood (mostly in the form of hydrogen carbonate ions) to the lung. In the lungs the carbon dioxide diffuses into the alveoli to be excreted as we breathe out. Urea is produced by breaking down excess amino acids in the liver. This process is known as deamination. The urea

speeds the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide‚ a toxic chemical produced by cells in the body‚ into water and oxygen (Cain and others‚ 2010). The oxygen can be observed as bubbles coming from the reaction site. Catalase is found in many living tissues of organisms‚ including chicken liver. The purpose of this experiment is to determine what changes in pH‚ temperature‚ and enzyme concentration have on the rate catalase works to break down hydrogen peroxide. If the pH‚ temperature‚ or enzyme concentration changes‚ then the reactio

synthetic drug that is used for treatment of breast cancer. Despite the beneficial effects of TMX‚ the use of this drug has several side-effects in these patients. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a well-known adverse effect of TMX. Silybum marianum is the most researched plant in the treatment of liver disease. Objectives: In this study the effect of Silybum marianum extract (SME) on histological and biochemical parameters in the TMX treated rats was investigated. Materials and Methods:

Abstract The purpose of this lab was to test if ethanol affects the reaction involving hydrogen peroxide and catalase. Tests were performed by putting chicken liver‚ ethanol solution (diluted ethanol solution for other trials) and hydrogen peroxide in a test tube with a side arm‚ and having a rubber tube lead the oxygen gas into a gas collection tube. Results from the tests showed a negative correlation‚ this means that the more diluted the solution of 95% ethanol was‚ the less oxygen gas collected

Six fresh empty boiling tubes 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ 4‚ 5‚ 6 were labeled. 2. The liver provided was cut into three pieces of roughly 0.8cm X 0.8cm X 0.5cm. 3. One piece of liver was placed into tube 1. 4. The second piece of liver was placed into the tube 2. Tube 2 was placed in the boiling water for about five minutes

they tested this by seeing how H2O2 and the catalysts from the banana and liver react to make H2O+O2. Depending on different conditions; like decomposition of H2O2 (surface area)‚ temperature on function‚ reusing the catalase‚ reaction rate of iced liver returned to room temperature‚ and effects of pH on enzyme activity‚ to see how much O2 was released by each reaction. For experiment two they tested effect of temperature on liver‚ iced had a slow increase of O2 loss‚ after a minute 18.8 ml of O2 escaped
