Five COX inhibitors were used to validate the assay‚ indomethacin‚ aspirin‚ naproxen‚ ibuprofen‚ and the arylsulfonamide NS-398‚ all with different COX selectivity and time dependency. Time-dependent inhibition was determined by comparing the inhibition‚ with and without preincubation of enzyme and inhibitor. Two flavonoids

Medical Marijuana is also a good medicine to help get rid of headaches and migraines. “Some people find it so useful in gaining perspectives or seeing problems from a different vantage point that they smoke it in preparation for intellectual work.” (Grinspoon) This is actually something thats very debatable‚ its also a very hot topic right now.

Like all drugs‚ aspirin also has some undesirable side effects which should be noted. When taken in large quantities (several grams per day)‚ gastric problems can result. Its use has been implicated in Reyes syndrome‚ a brain disorder that can affect people under the age of 18. Some people are highly allergic to aspirin. Finally‚ aspirin interferes with platelets and affects normal blood clotting which can lead to hemorrhaging

EXERCISE 11 Synthesis of Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid from Salicylic Acid) RAQUID‚ Rency J Group 5 18L I. Introduction Due to the demand of certain reagents in the laboratory in order to perform and conduct further experiments or produce essential compounds‚ chemists continuously develop organic synthesis. This process aims to prepare and synthesize desired organic compounds from commercially or readily available ones by providing the simplest route in synthesizing the compound

Investigation and Preparation of Esterification Lab Introduction Esters are classified as organic compounds commonly derived from carboxylic acids. They are compounded from the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol in the presence of a strong acid to be used as a catalyst. The formula that represents an ester is R-COO-R where both Rs’ are alkyl groups‚ one which is bonded to an oxygen‚ and the other to a carbon which is double bonded to 1 oxygen and single bonded to the other. Esters

12th Nov LS4002 - EXPERIMENT 1 Quantitative Analysis by Acid-Base Titration - A Determination of the Quantity of Aspirin in Powdered Tablets Aims In this experiment a solution of sodium hydroxide will be standardised using potassium hydrogen pthalate. This standardised sodium hydroxide solution will then be used to titrate powdered aspirin tablets. The percentage of aspirin in the powder tablets will then be calculated. Introduction Acid-base titrations are an example of what is called volumetric

Monica Perez Experiment 8: Acetylsalicylic Acid Experiment 01/25/2013 CHM Lab- 2211 Sec 0016 Instructor: Jennifer Reed Introduction: Commonly used as Aspirin‚ acetylsalicylic acid is an analgesic (pain reliever)‚ which is one of the products of the esterification reaction between salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. This esterification occurs since the hydroxyl group from the salicylic acid reacts with acetic anhydride to form an ester. In this experiment‚ we will be able to recreate

Research on lagundi conducted by the Philippine Department of Health has suggested that the plant has a number of practical uses‚ and the use of lagundi is actively promoted by the government as a result. Outside of the Philippines‚ preparations of lagundi are sometimes available at stores which supply herbal medicines‚ or through practitioners of herbal and alternative medicine. This plant is native to the swamps of the Philippines‚ where it can sometimes grow quite tall. It has a
