nanoparticles have unique properties which help in molecular diagnostics‚ in therapies‚ as well as in devices that are used in several medical procedures. The major methods used for silver nanoparticle synthesis are the physical and chemical methods. The problem with the chemical and physical methods is that the synthesis is expensive and can also have toxic substances absorbed onto them. To overcome this‚ the biological method provides a feasible alternative. The major biological systems involved in this are

At the beginning of the lab‚ a micro test tube with and without glass wool was weighed on an analytical balance. A watch glass‚ crucible‚ and lid were also weighed. The masses of all the materials needed for the lab were recorded in the data tables of the laboratory notebook. An unknown vial was obtained from the teacher and set to zero on the balance. About 0.6 grams of the unknown was measured into the micro test tube. The analytical balance was set to zero again and then the test tube with the

Acetylsalicylic acid is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in aspirin and can be synthesized by the esterification reaction of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride in the presence of an acid catalyst. An esterification reaction is when an acid is converted into an ester by combining with an alcohol and removing a water molecule. When heating the salicylic acid mixture in the warm water bath‚ the mixture should be removed from the bath within 8 minutes‚ to reduce the chance of the acetylsalicylic

Figure 6: Imatinib The first imatinib drug synthesis was done by Zimmermann (figure 7) in 1993‚ he used a chain of the reaction to reach to imatinib but the important part is that both guanidinium nitrate 7 and aminopyrimidine 8 are precipitated from the respective reaction mixtures by the addition of Figure 7: imatinib synthesis by Zimmermann insolubilizing solvents‚ so we got a condensation reaction between guanidinium salt 7 with enone “9” to form the aminopyrimidine “8” then “8” is

The Grignard Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol Organic Chemistry Lab II March 19‚ 2012 Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to synthesize the Grignard reagent‚ phenyl magnesium bromide‚ and then use the manufactured Grignard reagent to synthesize the alcohol‚ triphenylmethanol‚ by reacting with benzophenone and protonation by H3O+. The triphenylmethanol was purified by recrystallization. The melting point‚ Infrared Spectroscopy‚ 13C NMR‚ and 1H NMR were used to characterize and confirm

crystals 18.287g Claim: Based on my calculations‚ the theoretical yield of Aluminum was 18.160g‚ and the actual yield was 18.287g. This gives a percent yield of 100.699%. Evidence/ Reasoning: By looking at the overall reaction involved in the lab‚ we can see that two moles of Aluminum are needed to react in the reaction‚ producing 2 moles of KAl(SO4)2 ·12H2O. This lets us know that however many moles of Aluminum there are in the original sample will be equal to

Purpose Use a standardized potassium permanganate solution to analyze an unknown iron solution by using redox titration. Theory Reduction-oxidation titration is an analytical method based on electrons transferring between an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent in solutions. Chemical analysis can be built on Redox titration if four criteria are met: a) The reaction is completed in a thermodynamically spontaneous condition. b) The reaction is fast enough to give an operational result instantly

(NH2CH2CH2NH2) that formed [Co(en)2(H2O)2]Cl. Then the [Co(en)2(H2O)2]Cl was reacted with H2O2 to change the cobalt’s charge to cobalt(III) from cobalt(II). Finally HCl was added into the solution to form [Co(en)2Cl2]Cl. The percent yield was 45.51%.To synthesis trans isomers of [Co(en)2Cl2]Cl‚ distilled water was first mixed with CoCl2▪6H2O‚ the solution color was changed to wine color. After ethlenediamine (NH2CH2CH2NH2) was added‚ the color of the solution changed to blood color‚ and kept its color until

of the gel electrophoresis‚ both Madi and me are homozygous positive (+/+) for the Alu gene. This can be determined by looking at the ladder and comparing our sample to it‚ to find out if we are homozygous or heterozygous. Discussion For this lab‚ DNA from our cheek cells were separated through PCR‚ and singled out through gel electrophoresis. The process of the PCR is complex and contains different components and reactions. The first main step of PCR is denaturing. The temperature at which
