The C8 found in the water was known to cause “observable deformations in animal’s organs”. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) even came out with a study saying that C8 was toxic, and that it lasts forever. Instead of taking action to remove the C8 from the water, DuPont decided to hide this evidence.…
It is called Gaseous Chlorination and is often used in post-treatment as a secondary disinfectant after chlorine, ozone, UV irradiation, or chlorine dioxide. It helps prevent and remove harmful pathogens like bacteria, viruses, microbial cysts and parasites.…
Some of it's many uses include being an antiseptic, commonly used in the medical field (like in hospitals, for example), and found in medical wipes and antibacterial hand sanitizer. Some widely-known brand names include: Germ-X, Lavacol, Sani-Soft, Hanitizer, Epoch, and Aplicare Antiseptic Gel Hand…
Using Silver and Carbon in Wound Care Malodor, or odors that come from wounds, can be a challenge for both the patient and the care giver. The malodor can be quite unpleasant and may make the patient feel uncomfortable or embarrassed from it, causing them to isolate themselves and possibly delay much needed treatments. Delay of treatment can either prolong the healing process or make the wound worse. The odor usually comes from anaerobic bacteria that colonizes dead and dying tissues of wounds.…
Thanks for sharing. Your diagnosis of migraine headache is appropriate. However, the lack of important information in this case study makes it a little challenging and more testing will be helpful. The essential information needed include current vital signs, personal and social history as well as the family history, because recurrent headaches lasting for 12-18 hours, especially with a patient on a birth control medication. Also, the clinician should know when she started Ortho Tri-cyclin and if any other prescription medications, or herbals is involved, did she have a recent blood work done?…
Bad Women Following “good women”, the second category of women Marie introduces is “Bad Women.” These women are seen in Marie’s Lais, “Equitan” and “Bisclavret.” These women are initially seen as courtly women but soon turn deceitful, unrestrained and fickle with their love. Unlike the prior women introduced, these married women are vilified for their adulterous deceit.…
In this essay I will outline and discuss my opinion on the most the relevant pieces of legislation that needed to be considered with regard to a case study, and list other legislation. Safe practice is very significant so as to promotion self-esteem in any care setting. There are few legislative regulations and measures, that upkeep health and safety in domiciliary and residential care.…
The macrolide are a group of compounds which comparable in the structure, the vast majority of which are gotten from numerous types of Streptomyces soil-borne bacteria (Scott et al., 1996). Macrolides are effective against Gram-positive bacteria, such as Streptococcus spp. what's more, Staphylococcus spp. , Mycoplasma spp, however are marginally successful against Gram-negative living beings (Botsolou and Fletouris, 2001). Tilmicosin is a bacteriostatic macrolide antibiotic got from tylosin for veterinary use only.…
Antacids are weak bases that relieve heartburn by neutralizing small amounts of HCl in the stomach. When antacids are consumed bases such as OH- or CO32- are released and decrease the H+ concentration of a solution (the acid in the stomach) (Ferguson 2016). A neutralization reaction occurs when the base and HCl react producing a salt and water (Ferguson 2016). The purpose of this experiment is to test if the price of an antacid is correlated to it’s effectiveness.…
Antiperspirants containing aluminum chloride may be more effective when other antiperspirants fail Prescription strength antiperspirant - containing aluminum chloride Iontophoresis - the process of passing current through the water to the skin Oral drugs - called anticholinergic drugs, can reduce sweating Botulinum toxin (botulinum toxin) - for the treatment of axillary (armpit), hands, feet or facial sweating Surgery - such as endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy Aluminum chloride and sweating too…
In this lab, benzoic acid, benzocaine, and 9-fulorenone are isolated from a three-component mixture by using the acid-base extraction and other following types of various extraction techniques. An acid-base reaction is utilized in order to isolate the individual species from the mixture. First, in isolating the base benzocaine, proton transfers occurred via reaction with hydrochloric acid, which led to a significant shift in the polarity of the said compound, although the conjugate acid of benzocaine formed as a result. Due to the change in polarity, the state of benzocaine shifted from being solubilized in diethyl ether to water.…
3.0 Results and Discussion Figure 1 shows the infrared spectrum for both crosslinked and non-crosslinked films. Both carrageenan and vanillin contain similar functional groups such as CH4, C =O, C-O-C, C-OH. There is no significant difference in the spectrum that can be detected for crosslinked and non-crosslinked film samples.…
4.0 INTRODUCTION TO RESULT AND DISCUSSION This chapter covers the result and also the discussion on the experiment of lab scale soap production. All of the findings which are the analysis of pH value, saponification value and moisture content of the formulation soap bar is discussed thoroughly throughout the chapter. 4.1 RESULT AND DISCUSSION The purposes of the experiment were to identify the weights of materials to be used in the formulation of soap and also to produce the average quality of soap bar using basic formulations from palm oil.…
Antibiotic creams, also known as topical ointments are preparations designed to fight bacteria on the skin. The main difference between antibiotic creams and ointments is the oil to water ratio. For instance, ointments contain an average of 80% oil and 20% water while creams contain a relatively lower oil to water ratio. This is why ointments tend to feel greasier and stickier than creams. We have chosen three antibiotic creams and three antibiotic ointments in order to find out which antimicrobial agents each one contains, and compare how effective each one is.…
