Branching
when part of a chain of polymers comes off of a another. it affects the flexibility of the polymer. More branched= looser and more flexible, less branched = tighter and less flexible

Peptide bond
the covalent bond that forms when the -COOH group of one amino acid reacts with the -NH2 group of another, joining the two amino acids
Examples of Polyester
Kevlar, polyester clothing, PET, Cotton or wool
Examples of Polyamides
Amino Acids, nylon
Main Feedstock for polymers
petroleum, non-renewable
Biodegredation Strengths and weaknesses
Most aren't biodegradeable, but its less Green house gasses in the atmosphere. Land fills have become anaerobic so not even naturally biodegradable polymers can break down there.
Incineration Strengths and weaknesses
Lots of greenhouse gas, but it gets rid of the, no landfill or waste. Alos burning PVC = HCl disolved in water = acid rain. Bad. But more energy per pound then coal = good
Recycle strengths and weaknesses
Less new plastic entering waste stream, requires energy to convert, sometimes have to alter quality to bring up to virgin plastic standard
Recycled- Content
has recyled material in it and there are two kinds: Pre-consumer Content and Post-Consumer Content
Pre-Consumer Content
recycled materials are from manufacturing process
Post-Consumer Content
recycled material are those which have ended up in the trash industrial or consumer - this is the best one
Recyclable
doesn't mean the same as recycled content
Reduce, reuse alternatives
donate packing peanuts to stores, use less plastic bottles, avoid excessively packaged products
Antipyretic
reduces fever
anti-inflammatory
reduces swelling or inflammation
Analgesic
reduces pain
Polar Functional Groups
Ones that have polar bonds, and differences in EN, most is Amide, Acid, Alcohol Ketone and Aldehyde near netural
Structural Isomers
Different ways of arranging the same number of atoms. They have different chemical and physical properties, the more C's the more structural isomers
Optical Isomers
Caused by Carbon bonded to 4 different groups. Forms 2 optical isomers L - (left) or D + (right)
Pharmacore
Three dimensional arrangement of atoms responsible for biological action of molecule. Computers are used to find things that work as dummy keys, then they can rearrange and make better
What did we do Salicin to make it aspirin
changed out a functional group by combining it with acetic acid to form acetylsalicylic acid and water
Ketone Functional Group
CH3-C-CH3
||
O
So its a C=O bonded at the C to C's on either side
Aspirin's other name
Acetylsalicylic acid
Side effects of Aspirin
Common- Ringing in ears, nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting, heartburn. Rate- Drowsiness, rash, hives, itch, diminished vision, black or bloddy vomit, blood in urine, jaundice, SOB
NSAIDs
Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen, Non-Steroid Anti-Inflammatory Drugs
How Aspirin works
Blocks COX enzymes: reduces fever and swelling, surpresses the pain receptors. Only partially taken into specialized Cells. Pain & fever reducer and good pain reducer
How Ibuprofen Works
blocks COX enzymes better than aspirin: taken into specialized cells more than aspirin, better as an anti-inflammatory and pain reducer than aspirin.
How Acetaminophen works
Blocks COX enzymes NOT taken into speciality cells. Pain and fever reducer and poor anti-inflammatory
Prostaglandins
Hormone-like molecules made by cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes
ENZYME
PROTEIN THAT ACTS AS A BIOLOGICAL CATALYST
COX-2:
makes prostaglandins which cause fever & swelling, increase sensitivity of pain receptors, prevent blood vessels dilating
COX-1
make prostaglandins that regulate kidney and stomach function (acid, mucus production)
Why is bad to block both COX-1 and COX-2
COX-1 Regulates stomach and kidney function, if this gets blocked too much or long than that's real bad for your stomach and kidney, but just COX-2 blocking drugs weren't as safe as first thought
HORMONES:
Chemical messengers that are produced by ENDOCHRINE GLANDS. Received by receptor sites on the target cell.
thyroxine
gland- thyroid, effect- regulate metabolism
insulin
gland-pancreas effect- using glucose for energy
adrenaline
gland-adrenal effect-fight/flight
steroids
gland-various effect-various
Estrogens
female sex hormones
Androgens
male sex hormones
Estradiol & testosterone
regulation of secondary sexual characteristics
progesterone
regulation of the female reproductive cycle
RU-486
the "abortion pill" regulation of the female reproductive cycle
Cortisol
regulation of metabolism
cholic acid
digestion of fat
cholesterol
component of cell membranes, most common steroid,
gestrinone, trenbolone
stimulation of muscle and bone growth
Steroids
have same base structure- 3 hexagons and 1 pentagon
How the pill works
uses progestin and progesterone to affect the pituitary gland to prevent ovulation. When you're on the pill you trick your body into thinking its pregnant from the amount of progesterone present, so you can't get pregnant again. Have to go off every 4th week to ovulate and reset the clock
Emergency Contraception
basically either tell the body its already pregnant and it can't possibly be pregnant again, or RU-486 fits the lock and doesn't let the progesterone be expelled, and the second drug expels the egg
Anabolic Steroids
ynthetic steroids that stimulate muscle and bone growth Originally created as alternative to testosterone to help suffers of wasting illnesses
Anabolic Steroids risks
row breasts, testes shrink (men), become masculine (women), acne, hair loss, heart attack, stroke, liver damage.
