for several days. FT-IR spectra of Fe3O4‚ mercaptosuccinic acid and mercaptosuccinic acid functionalized Fe3O4 are shown in Figure 1(a-c)‚ respectively. In Figure 1a‚ the sharp band at about 585 cm-1 corresponds to the characteristic Fe–O vibration peak and the bands at around 3420 cm-1 are due to the stretching vibrations of the hydroxyls (–OH) on the surface of the Fe3O4. In Figure 1c‚ the S-H stretching vibrations of mercaptosuccinic acid appears in 2800 cm−1، C-H stretching vibrations appears in

Ph Lab Report Bryon Kim 123013 B(2) Biology Background information/Research PH paper (litmus paper) determines how acidic or how basic a substance is. The paper changes color accordingly to color code on the pH scale. The pH scale starts from 0 to 14. The lower the number the more acidic it is. Zero is the most acidic‚ and 14 is the most basic while 7 is the neutral number for example water. Examples of an acid is lemon juice or multi purpose cleaner. Examples of a basic substance is shampoo or liquid soap

Stoichiometry Lab Stoichiometry is the end result of adding up chemical elements that were involved in chemical reactions (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/stoichiometry). The word stoichiometry was obtained from two greek words meaning element and measure. This explains the definition for the term. A chemist named Jeremias Benjamin Richter was the chemist responsible for first realizing what stoichiometry was (http://www.chemteam.info/Stoichiometry/What-is-Stoichiometry.html). In 1972

[Name] [Teacher] [Course] [Date] Catalase Lab Report An enzyme is something that helps to speed up a chemical reaction. The enzyme changes from reaction to reaction‚ but it always has the same impact. However‚ certain variables may cause the enzyme to have a more or less significant impact on the speed of each reaction. One of these variables that changes the effectiveness of an enzyme is temperature. There is an optimal functioning temperature for each enzyme in each reaction‚ depending on

Introduction Memory is defined as the faculty by which the mind stores and remembers information(Eysenck & keane‚ 2010). Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968) (Cowan‚ Rouder‚ & Stadler‚ 2000)‚ came up with a model of sensory memory which stated not everything we perceive we process. Craik and Tulving (1975) developed an opposing theory in which they proposed the levels of processing theory‚ stating its not the processing but the type of quality of the processing that is performed‚ that determines the retention

Effect of enzyme concentration on rate of reaction Research question: is there a relationship between catalase concentration and the rate of reaction? Hypotheses: if the enzyme concentration is increased then the rate of reaction will increase. If the enzyme concentration is decreased then the rate of reaction will decrease. Controlled: temperature Independent: % catalyze concentration ( Dependent: rate of reaction (mm/s) Materials: Mortar and pestle Graduated cylinder Distilled

most efficient use of resources while preserving the most energy. One stimulus to consider‚ is the exposure of plants to sunlight; when plants are just sprouting and are underground‚ the stimulus of not having any sunlight prevents the plants from growing chlorophyll and thus from growing leaves. SInce no sunlight is present underground‚ growing leaves would be pointless and would stunt the very essential growth of the plant as well as wasting very precious resources. Therefore hormones in the plant signal the formation of proteins that inhibit

Abstract A natural polyphenolic compound Quercetin was extracted from widely available and consumed plant Allium fistulosum which has shown promising chemo preventive and chemotherapeutic activities in cancer. In this study‚ quercetin is encapsulated and loaded onto PLGA (Poly lactic glycolic acid) microspheres using double emulsification methodology for improving its efficiency in cancer therapy. Quercetin is extracted and purified using chromatographic and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques
