involving the appearance of NADPH. Sucrose and glucose concentrations were calculated from the concentration of NADPH formed by the reaction of glucose-6-phosphate and NADP+. Spectrophotometric absorbance readings were taken at 340nm‚ this is because NADPH absorbs strongly at this wavelength‚ whilst NADP+ does not (1015MSC‚ 2010). The concentration of glucose and sucrose in Powerade was found to be 0.43g/100mL and 7.36g/100mL‚ whereas the concentration of glucose and sucrose in Gatorade was found to be

Glucose challenge was conducted through intravenous application of 50% glucose (0.3 g/kg of body weight) in 1 min periods in the antecubital vein. The clock was restarted at the beginning of glucose application. Samples used for measuring insulin and c-peptides were taken precisely in +2 min‚ +4 min‚ +6 min and +8 min after initiation of glucose administration. Samples for measuring glycemia were taken in +2 min‚ +4 min‚ +6 min and +8 min. Upon completed sampling‚ insulin infusion was stopped‚ while

The starch and glucose that was put inside the dialysis tube help identify which of the two will reacted with potassium iodide inside the breaker‚ as the latter passed from the beaker into the tube‚ the glucose/starch solution’s change of color showed that the potassium iodide was small enough that it able to pass through from the solution and into the bag.

number of human genes changed nothing. Venter’s remarks concealed two whopping nonsequiturs: that fewer genes implied more environmental influences and that 30‚000 genes were too few to explain human nature‚ whereas 100‚000 would have been enough. As one scientist put it to me a few weeks later‚ just 33 genes‚ each coming in two varieties (on or off)‚ would be enough to make every human being in the world unique. There are more than 10 billion combinations that could come from flipping
