Lab 7: The Kidney’s Role in Fluid Balance Introduction The renal system performs a vital role in homeostasis. The kidneys’ ability to retain valuable constituents and expel metabolic wastes from the body enables this system to regulate the volume‚ osmolarity‚ and pH of body’s internal fluid environment (Sherwood‚ 2007‚ p. 511). The functional unit of the kidney‚ referred to as the nephron‚ is composed of both tubular components—Bowman’s capsule proximal tubule‚ loop of Henle‚ the distal tubule

ABOUT ORAL FLUID DRUG TESTING N3 Fact #1 – The use of oral fluid testing is growing each year.1 Oral fluid drug testing in the workplace is relatively new compared to laboratory-based urine testing. But in a fairly short period of time it has become the testing method of choice for many companies. While it will not meet the needs of every employer‚ because of its unique advantages it will appeal to many

Class: DME2 Title: Flow Measurement Date: 11/02/2013 Lecturer: Mr Higgins Summary: In this experiment many different meters were used to measure fluid flow rate; the orifice plate‚ the venture meter‚ the rota meter and the weigh tank. Each meter works by its ability to alter a certain physical property of the flowing fluid and then allows this alteration to be measured. The measured alterations are linked directly to the flow rate and these measurements are subbed in to adjusted equations

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the effects of changes in temperatures and pH on enzyme activity in skeletal muscle‚ particularly the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). LDH is a glycolytic enzyme which converts pyruvate to lactate in the following equation: LDH Pyruvate+ NADH ------------ Lactate + NAD The reaction above can move in both directions‚

Fluid and Electrolyte Imbalance Paper Julia Peterson University of Akron Introduction Homeostasis of fluid and electrolyte balance is important for the body to be able to function. The nursing student will cover the risk‚ pathology‚ and signs and symptoms for both fluid deficit and hypokalemia. The nursing student will also apply these findings to the patient specific information from the clinical day February 8‚ 2011. This will give her the ability to formulate four different nursing diagnosis

Characteristics of a Good Hydraulic Fluid Viscosity Viscosity is a measure of a hydraulic fluid’s resistance to flow. It is a hydraulic fluid’s most important characteristic and has a significant impact on the operation of the system. When a hydraulic oil is too thin (low viscosity)‚ it does not seal sufficiently. This leads to leakage and wear of parts. When a hydraulic oil is too thick (high viscosity)‚ the fluid will be more difficult to pump through the system and may reduce operating
