20 MWCO membrane because the urea was too big to pass through. 3. Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the results compare with your prediction. a. Between the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane‚ the results for both were that glucose was diffuse but the albumin did not. Comparing to my prediction‚ the results were a bit different. I predicted that both were able to diffuse‚ but at the

Previously drawn laboratory tests have been released into the patient’s chart and show a blood glucose of 110 mg/dL‚ serum total protein of 6.0 g/dL and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of 300 U/L. A diagnostic thoracentesis is performed‚ removing 50mL of pleural fluid. The pleural fluid will be sent for cell count‚ gram stain‚ culture‚ pH‚ glucose‚ protein and LDH. Gram stain and culture of a sputum specimen is negative for tuberculosis. If the effusion is due to the patient’s history of cirrhosis

Why is albumin the first protein to be detected in tests for renal failure? b. its molecular size is smallest 5. Cortisol excess will result in _____ a. hypernatremia c. elevated glucose levels in blood 6. What is the reason for this discrepancy or What would you do

Denaturation is carried on by heating the double-stranded DNA at 94°C to separate the complementary strands that will serve as template in further cyclings. Pre-denaturation is sometimes done at the same temperature to ensure complete separation of strands. Annealing then occurs upon rapid cooling of the solution‚ allowing oligonucleotide

as a source of carbon and energy. *Lithotrophy is the use of an inorganic compound as a source of energy. Energy-Generating Metabolic Pathways 1) Aerobic respiration a) Heterotrophic reduced carbon compounds as energy sources (carbs‚ fats‚ proteins) 8 ATP (Glycolysis) 30 ATP (Krebs‚ ETC) b) Chemolithotrophic including C1 metabolism > derive energy from oxidation of inorganic compounds > derive cellular carbon from CO2 2) Anaerobic respiration a) Also Heterotrophic and Chemolithotrophic

Basic cooking principle CONDUCTION Conduction occurs in two ways: 1. When heat moves directly from one item to another part of item example‚ from the top of the range to a soup pot placed on it‚ from the pot to the broth inside‚ and from the broth to the solid food items in it. 2. When heat moves from one part of something to an adjacent part of the same item for example‚ from the exterior of a roast to the interior‚ or from a sauté pan to its handle. Different materials conduct heat at different

concentration of bilirubin was calculated by the formula: Total Bilirubin Conc. = [Sample Abs./Standard Abs.] × standard Conc. 3.6.2.2.5 Estimation of albumin content PRINCIPLE The test is based on the amount of albumin that binds Bromocresol green indicator in an acid medium to form a green BCG complex‚ the amount which is directly proportional to the albumin concentration present in the sample. REAGENTS Reagent I: Bromocresol green (0.24mM/L) + Succinate

Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability 1 EXERCISE 1 OBJECTIVES 1. To define the following terms: differential permeability‚ passive and active processes of transport‚ diffusion (simple diffusion‚ facilitated dif- fusion‚ and osmosis)‚ solute pump‚ pinocytosis‚ and phagocytosis. 2. To describe the processes that account for the movement of sub- stances across the plasma membrane‚ and to indicate the driving force for each. 3. To determine which way substances will move passively

destruction of heme-containing proteins and catabolism of heme. When hemoglobin is destroyed‚ the protein portion‚ globin is reused in the body. The porphyrin is broken down as a waste product and excreted. This action of splitting the porphyrin ring and releasing the iron globin forms biliverdin‚ which is easily reduced to bilirubin. Bilirubin is transported to the liver in the bloodstream bound to proteins‚ chiefly albumin. It is then separated from the albumin and taken up by the hepatic cells
