Spectrophotometry. Spectroscopy‚ and the Spectrometer Spectroscopy is the branch of science concerned with the investigation and measurement spectra produced when mater interacts with or emits electromagnetic radiation Meanwhile‚ spectrophotometry is the measurement of color in a solution by determining the amount of light absorbed in the ultraviolet‚ infrared‚ or visible spectrum. A spectrophotometer is an instrument often used to compare the intensity of light from a regulated or standard

The functioning of this instrument is relatively straightforward. A beam of light from a visible and/or UV light source (colored red) is separated into its component wavelengths by a prism or diffraction grating. Each monochromatic (single wavelength) beam in

Protein SCI/241 Protein A protein are organic compounds that made up of amino acids and are the building blocks of the cells in the body. Every cell in the body requires proteins to grow and repair themselves so these proteins are necessary for a healthy body and survival. Having so much protein can hurt your body so when you consume so much can get you sick and the right size of protein can keep you from getting sick. They’re five types of protein in everything that we eat. The largest class

Effect of Protein Intake on Strength‚ Body Composition and Endocrine Changes in Strength/Power Athletes Introduction: Proteins are often called the building blocks of the body. Protein consists of combinations of structures called amino acids that combine in various ways to make muscles‚ bone‚ tendons‚ skin‚ hair‚ and other tissues. They serve other functions as well including nutrient transportation and enzyme production. Adequate‚ regular protein intake is essential because it isn’t easily

DETERMINATION OF COPPER BY COMPLEXATION‚ SOLVENT-EXTRACTION AND SPECTROPHOTOMETRY ABSTRACT To determine the concentration of copper in an unknown solution by using copper complexation‚ solvent extraction and spectrophotometry. Standards are used to create a calibration curve and the unknown concentration of copper is then calculated by using the linear equation from the calibration curve. The concentration of copper in the unknown solution 201 was found to be 12.57± 0.25 μg/mL. INTRODUCTION Copper

Abstract The activity of invertase and the quantification of albumin and casein were performed and analyzed after extraction of the said proteins from their respective sources. Isolation of proteins was initiated by the breakage of the cell wall / membranes in three different ways. Homogenization of invertase‚ albumin and casein were achieved via grinding process‚ addition of 1M acetic acid and acidification by 0.1M hydrochloric acid correspondingly. Extraction of invertase and casein involved

Proteins Are the basic materials of every body cell. Body cells are constantly wearing out. As a result‚ they are continuously in need of replacement Of the six nutrients group‚ only proteins can make new cells rebuild tissue. By the age of 4 years‚ body protein content reaches the adult level of about 18% of body weight. An adequate supply of proteins in the daily diet is essential for the maintenance of health. The word protein is a Greek derivation and means “of first importance”. Composition

Introduction: Proteins are necklaces of amino acids – long chains molecules. Proteins are the basis of how biology get this done. As enzymes‚ they are the driving force behind all the biochemical reactions which make biology work. As structural elements‚ they are main constituents of our bones‚ muscles‚ hair‚ skin‚ and blood vessels. As antibodies‚ they recognize invading elements and allow the immune system to get rid of the unwanted invaders. For these reasons‚ scientists have sequenced the

PROTEIN TRANSLATION 1. Initiation Translation To begin translation: large and small ribosomal subunit‚ along with the initiating tRNA‚ assembles onto the mRNA 2. Translation Elongation The next amino acyl-tRNA enters the ribosome at the A site The amino acid at the P site is transferred to the tRNA at the A site. The ribosome moves one codon farther along the mRNA‚ releasing the empty tRNA through the E (exit) site. The A site is free for the next incoming RNA. The cycle is repeated as the
