Lab Report Macrocyclic Synthesis (Heme Analog) I. Purpose of Experiment and Introduction The purpose of this lab experiment is to prepare meso-tetraphenylporphin (TPP) and its copper‚ cobalt or zinc complex by condensing benzaldehyde with pyrrole in boiling propanoic acid. II. Introduction and Background There are two types of proteins that function as oxygen carriers: myoglobin (stores the oxygen) and hemoglobin (present in red blood cells and is responsible for oxygen transport)

Protein synthesis is the process whereby proteins are produced‚ or synthesized‚ in living things according to "directions" given by DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and carried out by RNA (ribonucleic acid) and other proteins. As suggested earlier‚ this is an extraordinarily complex process that we do not attempt to discuss here. Following synthesis‚ proteins fold up into an essentially compact three-dimensional shape‚ which is their tertiary structure. DNA contains the instructions for a cell’s structure

Formal Report no. 1 Synthesis of Aspirin Chemical Principles Aspirin is most widely sold over-the-counter drug. It has the ability to reduce fever (an antipyretic)‚ to reduce pain (an analgesic)‚ and to reduce swelling‚ soreness‚ and redness (an anti-inflammatory agent). Much of this is believed to be due to decreased production of prostaglandins and thromboxanes. Aspirin’s ability to suppress the production of prostaglandins and thromboxanes is due to its irreversible inactivation of the cyclooxygenase (COX)

and Compassion Abstract There are different views on the concepts of nursing. Nurses can have the same views on nursing concepts as patients do with only slight difference. But overall the concepts of competence‚ professionalism‚ and compassion are viewed very similarly between the nurse and patient interviewed for this paper. Competence plays a key role in the quality of patient care. Compassion is a basis of nursing that expresses empathy towards patients‚ and professionalism can sometimes

Ethics in Nursing Kerrie D. Garraway Keyano College Ethics in Nursing Today people strive to leave an imprint on the world around them. Towards the beginning of adulthood people choose a path that allows them to take part in one of the integral roles of society. For those of us who choose the role of a nurse‚ we are expected to provide the best therapeutic care possible for our clients and instil lifelong health values into their everyday lives. In order

Lab 3: Grignard Synthesis Objective: The goal of this lab is to synthesize a Grignard reagent from bromobenzene and magnesium metal in diethyl ether. This same Grignard reagent would then be used to prepare a tertiary alcohol and then purify and characterize the product.

Articulation of a personal nursing philosophy encompasses the examination of one’s values‚ beliefs‚ and principles that direct nursing care. Throughout my education and experiences as a nurse‚ I inadvertently formed a set of values and beliefs or my nursing philosophy. My nursing philosophy is a result of the knowledge acquired from education and my interactions with patients‚ family members‚ caregivers‚ and coworkers. As long as I can remember I have had a desire to care for others. My day to day

Experiment 2 and 3: Synthesis of Aspirin and Determination of Melting Point A. Abstract Aspirin is the common name for the compound acetylsalicylic acid‚ widely used as a fever reducer and as a pain killer. The first part of the experiment aims to synthesize aspirin from the reaction of salicylic acid with acetic anhydride with the aid of phosphoric acid as a catalyst. The second part of the experiment aims to assess the purity of aspirin through the determination of its melting point and
