Titration

Introduction Intravenous infusion therapy is an infusion of fluids directly into the patient’s bloodstream via a vein using an intravenous catheter. It is frequently used in hospital settings for patients that require a rapid onset of medication and for those who are unable to receive medications orally. According to Adams and Urban (2012), intravenous (IV) infusion is considered to be the most dangerous route of receiving medications because medication cannot be retrieved once it enters the…

neutralize the acids and its ability to maintain relatively constant Ph(buffer). Alkalinity influence the contamination of many substances present in the water. It can be determined by various menthods ,one of which include the use of simple dil.HCL titrations in the presence of phenolphthalein and methylorange indicators. Presence of hydroxyl and carbonate ions in the boiled water results in…

In order to increase nursing knowledge, according to Nelson and Staggers (2015), the ability to extract the unique data that nurses provide is essential. Utilizing a common language, standardized nursing terminology (SNT), allows for the organization of data, information and knowledge. Park (2014) asserted, coded SNT in the electronic health record EHR, allows for a comprehensive means to portray the “art of nursing”, the interventions and outcomes which are a direct result of nursing actions.…

An antacid is composed of a basic chemical compound (the active ingredient), which is an essential component of a neutralization reaction. When this compound along with an acidic compound (HCl) dissociates, it react and form neutralized components such as water and a salt. This is an ideal mechanism of action for individuals who suffer from acid reflux or heartburn conditions because the excessive HCl that is found in the stomach can be alleviated by ingesting antacid tablets. This experiment…

properties of the protein. This could be due to either the refractive index changes in the sample or possible dimerization/aggregation. This change should be considered when performing the fluorescence analysis. This implies that the fluorescence titrations up to 200μM are well behaved i.e. linear. The experiment in figure 2 shows that when the samples are run in a 0.1 cm cuvette and not in a 1 cm one, and their corresponding absorbance multiplied by 10 to put them on the same scale, the curves…

Extraction of alkali from banana peels is known to depend on such parameters as ashing temperature, ashing time, soaking time and particle size of the ashed sample, soil type and variety. Alkali was extracted from three Nigerian grown banana peels namely: Saaro, Oloosun and Paranta for the purpose of determining the concentration of the extracted alkali. The concentration of the extracted alkali ranged from 0.02 to 0.10mol/dm3. The three varieties of the banana peels gave a maximum concentration…

Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome Nursing Care Bhumika Patel Orvis School of Nursing University of Nevada Reno Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome Nursing Care This paper discusses the case of 2-month old patient who will be referred to simply as L.C. The patient has been admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit at Saint Mary’s Regional Hospital in Reno, NV for neonatal abstinence syndrome. L.C.’s meconium toxicology screen reveals positives for the following substances: codeine,…

Circular Dichroism (CD) fundamentals. CD is defined as the difference between absorptions of left (Al) and right (Ar) circularly polarized light beams, CD=Al-Ar For each absorption band, the CD of two enantiomers are always exactly opposite. Theory. For each electronic transition one can define an electric (µij≠0) and a magnetic (mij≠0) transition dipole. Both can lead to absorption of radiation, the intensity of which is directly related to the oscillator strength f, fij≈| µij |2+ | mij |2 In…

Two chromatographic methods were developed for the assay of the FDA approved lozenges containing dextromethorphan hydrobromide (DXT) and menthol (MNT). The first was a green HPTLC method which depends on using Merck HPTLC aluminum sheets of silica gel 60 F254 and methanol-ammonia (10:0.1, v/v) as mobile phase. This was followed by densitometric measurements of the spots which were retained at 0.28 ± 0.01 for DXT and 0.76 ± 0.02 for MNT scanned at 210 nm. The method was found linear over the…

Examination of Molecular determinants of Yellow Fever Virus pathogenicity in Syrian Golden Hamsters: one mutation away from virulence Christian Lee West Coast University: Ontario Native and endemic to the tropical and subtropical locations of Africa and South America, these areas are where Yellow Fever is most prevalent. According to Klitting, Roth, Rey, and Lambellerie, “Yellow Fever Virus was named after the jaundice characteristic of the liver dysfunction caused by the…
