Introduction When extracting lipids or fats from foods‚ both the method as well as the solvents chosen to perform a complete‚ or close to complete extraction are important. If these two elements are not taken into consideration‚ the extraction may not be complete‚ or the extract may contain a large quantity of undesired impurities. The natural fats and oil are mixtures of glycerides of fatty acids. Fats and oils are naturally occurring organic compounds which belong to a large group of water insoluble

Is the move from sector neutral to sector specific effective? 6/3/2014 Abstract: The International Financial Reporting Standards were adopted with idea of providing the private sector entities access to the international capital markets; have not focused on reporting needs of the public sector. Public sector entities also have financial reporting needs and are required to produce high quality reports. The central point of argument is that to maintain sector neutral accounting

Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to perform a liquid-liquid extraction method to extract the caffeine from the tea bags that were provided‚ and then recrystallize the caffeine. The solvents used in the experiment were an aqueous sodium carbonate and dichloromethane (DCM). Anhydrous calcium chloride pellets were used to dry the solution and emulsion layer and the DCM was then decanted. After washing the anhydrous calcium chloride pellets with more DCM‚ the solvent was evaporated‚ leaving

Objective : To extract the DNA from onion samples. Introduction : Nuclues has DNA molecule in it. It is packaged into thread like structure known as chromosomes. Each and every chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins which is known as histones. Histones supports the structure. Chromosome cannot be visible even under the microscope if the cells are not dividing. DNA consist of 2 long polynucleotide which is composed of 4 types of nucleotide units. Nucleotides

the Gulf’s fishing and tourism industries. Being from Louisiana I seen firsthand the effect the spill had on the gulf coast. Seafood is one of the biggest markets we have in Louisiana and we could not eat‚ buy‚ or sell anything out of the gulf. Skimmer ships‚ floating containment booms‚ anchored barriers‚ sand-filled barricades along shorelines‚ and dispersants were used in an attempt to protect hundreds of miles of beaches‚ wetlands‚ and estuaries from the spreading oil. Scientists also reported immense

Neutral Curriculum What is a neutral curriculum? A neutral curriculum is that curriculum that does not cover all aspects of coping with day to day life. This type of curriculum does not allow the students to draw their own conclusions about specific lessons that are being taught. As individuals‚ we need to be well rounded. This type of curriculum will not allow the students to conquer other areas that will encourage them to move forward in their education spiritually. They must understand the importance

The identification of acids and bases using a natural indicator Purpose: The purpose of this lab practice is to identify the pH of certain solutions and if they are acids or bases. Introduction: In chemistry‚ pH is a measure of the activity of the (solvated) hydrogen ion. p[H]‚ which measures the hydrogen ion concentration‚ is closely related to‚ and is often written as‚ pH. Depending on the pH solutions will be acids or bases. An acid is a chemical compound that dissociates in solution‚ releasing

Kate Kirby June 6‚ 2013 Title: Extraction of an Unknown Compound Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to separate a mixture of two or more unknown compounds and identify them based on their melting point and reactivity with an acid or a base. Compound studied/Reactions: The organic solvent used in this experiment was methyl t-butyl ether (MTBE‚ 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane). The unknown that dissolved in the MTBE‚ but was insoluble in water. MBTE is very volatile and flammable. It was
