Lactic Acid Bacteria Amanda Perry Many persons are oblivious to the fact that when they consume certain delicious food products like yogurt‚ buttermilk or cheese‚ they are actually eating live bacterial biomass which has acidified the milk content and contains a mixture of bacterial slime layers. Perhaps it is a blessing that most people are unaware because when most hear the word ‘bacteria‚’ their first thought is of a microscopic unicellular organism that causes various types of diseases especially

Different antacids 8. Side effects 9. Nursing implifications 10. Inference Abstract of the work under taken Antacids are medicines that neutralize stomach acid. They are used to relieve acid indigestion‚ upset stomach‚ sour stomach‚ and heartburn. Antacids are taken by mouth and work by neutralizing excess stomach acid. They contain ingredients such as aluminum hydroxide‚ calcium carbonate‚ magnesium hydroxide‚ and sodium bicarbonate‚ alone or in various combinations. Antacid products

Ethanoic Acid Advantages: Ethanoic acid is non-toxic and is a weak acid‚ meaning it will not do any damage to most surfaces as it does not corrode or bind to other metals‚ therefore can be easily removed through washing or rinsing it. Disadvantages: Ethanoic Acid is the slowest de-scaler of the three acids‚ and is therefore the least effective. It also may cause an unpleasant smell‚ and can have a negative effect on the taste of coffee meaning one would need to spend longer time rinsing and cleaning

non-essential amino acids‚ amino acid remodeling‚ and conversion of non-amino acid carbon skeletons into amino acids and other derivatives that contain nitrogen. However‚ the liver is the major site of nitrogen metabolism in the body. In times of dietary surplus‚ the potentially toxic nitrogen of amino acids is eliminated via transaminations‚ deamination‚ and urea formation; the carbon skeletons are generally conserved as carbohydrate‚ via gluconeogenesis‚ or as fatty acid via fatty acid synthesis pathways

Synthesis of trans-9-(2-Phenylethenyl)anthracene Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to convert carboxyl compounds into alkenes. While this reaction yields both the E and Z isomers‚ it is preferred over other reactions due to the lack of uncertainty of where the double bond is positioned. Also the stability of an ylide determines which isomer is the major product. 1 Experimental: Compounds Benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride 9-Anthraldehyde 50% Aqueous NaOH DCM Product Formula weight

The Central Role of the Citric Acid Cycle 3 processes play central roles in aerobic metabolism. The citric acid cycle. Electron transport . Oxidative phosphorylation. Metabolism consists of: Catabolism: the oxidative breakdown of nutrients. Anabolism: the reductive synthesis of biomolecules. • The citric acid cycle is amphibolic

Acid Rain and its Chemistry Acid rain is a type of pollution that is becoming a major threat to our planet and is need of attention. Acid rain has significantly increased ever since the industrial revolution‚ and now around the world‚ countries like Russia‚ China‚ and those in Europe are facing increasing levels of acidity in their rain. Not only is it becoming more acidic but it is also spreading by the pumping of sulfuric gasses deeper into the atmosphere from of the use of taller smokestacks

Acid Rain Definition: The term acid rain refers to what scientists call acid deposition. It is caused by airborne acidic pollutants and has highly destructive results. Scientists first discovered acid rain in 1852‚ when the English chemist Robert Agnus invented the term. From then until now‚ acid rain has been an issue of intense debate among scientists and policy makers. Acid rain‚ one of the most important environmental problems of all‚ cannot be seen. The invisible gases that cause acid

The Effects of Acid Rain Bio-105 Abstract The effects of acid rain is damaging no matter how you look at the picture. Acid rain effects open areas more than forests due to the trees blocking some of the rain from hitting the ground. Acid rain is monitored by using emissions monitors. This helps figure out how much acid is in rainwater. Acid rain is harmful to fish by killing off entire species. Acid rain is harmful to living creatures‚ but many do not realize how toxic it can be to

Recrystallization of Benzoic Acid Objective To purify benzoic acid by recrystallization and gain experience with a basic organic laboratory techniques. Background Products of chemical reactions are often contaminated with impurities. One method for purifying chemicals‚ recrystallization‚ takes advantage of the differences in the solubilities of the desired products and the impurities and the tendency for the slow formation of crystals to exclude impurities from the crystalline solid.
