Trans-resveratrol has long been known to exhibit antioxidant properties owing to the presence of three hydroxyl group which can readily scavenge any free radical either by donating a hydrogen atom or by forming a non radical product with the radical. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS)‚ the most potent of free radicals have been shown to be involved in initiation of heart and cancer related diseases by damaging DNA and other macromolecules in the body. It is associated

IT TOGETHER: Classifying Chemical Reactions Purpose: To observe and differentiate between the four different types of chemical reactions. Variables: The independent variables are the sodium chloride‚ sodium carbonate‚ magnesium‚copper‚ copper (11) sulfate‚ silver nitrate‚ oxygen‚ lead(11) nitrate‚ sodium carbonate‚ copper (11) sulfate pentahydrate. The dependent variables are the chemical reactions that are being looked for. For example decomposition‚ synthesis‚ single displacement or double displacement

Synthesis of 3‚4-dihydro-3-(p-methylphenyl)-1‚2-(2h)-benzoxazine involves the nucleophillic addition of the 1 °amine group upon the carbonyly group of the salicylaldehyde‚ the reduction of imine to amine and the addition of paraformaldehyde to proceed ring closure. The experiment prepared the product through Mannich reaction‚ a multicomponent condensation synthesis between ketone‚ aldehydes‚ enols and amines. Biosynthesis of benzoaxazines occur under reductive and nucleophilic reaction conditions

Trans Fats Ban Doughnuts are one of my favorite foods. I don’t eat them regularly‚ maybe once a month so they are an occasional treat for me. Darryl Townson‚ owner of “Dat Doughnut” shop in Illinois makes his living from the fried sugary goodies. Recently‚ lawmakers have been pushing for a ban on artificial trans fats. Such a ban would mean that people like Townson would have to alter the way he makes his doughnuts. Here in Washington‚ a similar bill has already been passed in King County. I

To understand the issue of trans-misogyny‚ we must first define the word(s). Trans-misogyny is composed of two separate words‚ trans and misogyny. Trans is the shortened version of transsexual‚ a person who emotionally and psychologically feels that they belong to the opposite sex#. Misogyny is the hatred of women#. So when we speak of trans-misogyny‚ we mean the hatred of trans-women‚ so male-to-female individuals. This is another form of discrimination‚ and hatred‚ like homophobia‚ xenophobia and

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)

Social scientists have studied it‚ lawyers have tried to fix it and post-feminist society is over it. But women are still outnumbered by men in math‚ science and engineering fields. Most overt discrimination against women in the sciences has been reduced or eliminated in recent decades through legal‚ academic‚ corporate and government measures. But a climate that is less than fully friendly to women remains‚ and its texture is often still so taken for granted that it tends to be invisible. The

Lab 1: Synthesis of Aspirin Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate the ability to easily alter the molecular structure of a compound to greatly increase its utility. In this case‚ an acetyl group was added to salicylic acid‚ a naturally occurring compound with significant pharmaceutical value. Without the addition of the acetyl group‚ salicylic acid is an irritant to the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract. Once the acetyl group is added via a simple reaction‚ acetylsalicylic

Myeloid tissue Is the bone marrow Why we discuss myeloid tissue/bone marrow? – because we want to study the development of blood cells. We called it HEMOPOEISIS/HEMATOPEISIS HEMOPEISIS/HEMATOPOEISIS –Blood cell formation (occurs in the bone group) Why study this? Because: there is a continuous replacement of cells they have short life span when they are in the peripheral circulation so‚ we have to study how these cells mature and differentiate Phases of hematopoeisis MESOBLASTIC PHASE
