Testing for reducing sugars‚ non-reducing sugars‚ starch‚ lipids and proteins in unknown substances: Our aim: was to find out which substances from our five samples have reducing sugars present to determine what they may be for example; they could be monosacchrides or disaccharides. This was carried out by using Benedict’s test. To find out which substances from our five samples were non-reducing sugars‚ since some disaccharides are reducing sugars and this would be carried out by using Benedict’s

Is a Circumsporozoite Protein based vaccine an applicable preventative against Malaria? 1.1 The Problem Malaria is caused by five species of parasites of the genus: Plasmodium that affects humans (P. falciparum‚ P. vivax‚ P. ovale‚ P. malariae and P. knowlesi). “Malaria due to P. falciparum is the most deadly form and it predominates in Africa; P. vivax is less dangerous but more widespread‚ and the other three species are found much less frequently”.An estimated 3.3 billion people were at risk

Protein synthesis occurs in two steps : Transcription and Translation. Transcription is the process of creating an mRNA copy of a DNA template; the mRNA is then translated into protein. The Messenger RNA (mRNA) contains the genetic information is copied from DNA during transcription . During translation‚ ribosomes synthesize the proteins using the mRNA copy produced during transcription. Proteins are complex molecules that each has a very unique shape‚ structure and function. The shape of the

The Hair Follicle Stem Cell Niche and the Function of the Rac1 protein within the niche. Abstract: An adult stem cell’s niche is responsible for the preservation of the stem cell’s undifferentiated state through either intrinsic or extrinsic expression of specific proteins (Scadden‚ 2006). Situated in the bulge of the hair follicle‚ hair follicle stem cells (HFSC) are quiescent in nature and are responsible for not only its self renewal but also in the production of rapidly proliferating cells

Do Fats Digest More Slowly Than Carbohydrates and Proteins? The foods we eat are classified into six elementary groups: carbohydrates‚ fats‚ proteins‚ vitamins‚ minerals‚ and water. These foods are broken down into various nutrients during digestion. The time taken for the body to extract nutrients and the complexity of the digestion process depend on the molecular nature of the food eaten. Fat molecules seem more complex than the others so its digestion often takes a longer time. Types of Fat Fats

Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids‚ just a chain of ami. tacids makes up the primary structure. The secondary structure is formed by hydrogen bonds joining the chains in certain places to make an alpha helix or a beta sheet. The tertiary structure is formed by even more folding and joining of the chains to make a globular mass or fibrous mass. An example of this would be a carrier protein. Proteins are needed for many things they are needed in our diet for growth and repair of cells
