•Researchers’ question: Do lifestyle and dietary habits change the gut microbiota in obese individuals?
•Hypothesis (and possible predictions): Gut microbiota changes along with the body composition in obese individuals during weight loss. The possible prediction is that gut microbiota changes before, during and after losing weight.
•Experiment and variables: Obese individuals were subjected to a dietary regimen during 4 months. The experiment consisted in measuring BIA and gut microbiota before, during and after the intervention. Gut microbiota was analysed through quantitative-real time PCR using the 16S rDNA to identify the bacteria genus present in the gut. The variables are weight loss and gut microbiota, the independent one is weight

    Asa Synthesis Lab Report

    The purpose of the experiment was about recrystallization of crude ASA from crude ASA, then analyze the yield and melting point of Recrystallized product, test for Purity of Recrystallized ASA by using thin layer chromatography and analysis of Recrystallized Acetylsalicylic Acid by Spectroscopy to compare these results with another experiment about creating an Aspirin from Salicylic Acid. In this experiment, 0.1241 gram of Recrystallized ASA was produced from 1.1754 gram of Crude ASA and the yield of reaction is 10.56%. This yield is lower than the yield by creating an Aspirin from Salicylic Acid because the crystallized product is purer because we did not add another chemical in. For the melting point of recrystallized ASA, Mel-temp was used…

    Experiment Number Two Lab Essay

    CONCLUSION: Two weeks ago, Soundings XVI performed Lab Experiment Number Two. Lab Experiment Number Two was similar to the previous, Lab Experiment Number One. The prompt was to compare the results of pennies dropped in water, versus the result of pennies being dropped into milk, both at 100 mL. The main purpose of this lab was to further discuss more scientific parts of this lab, such as the surface tension when the cylinder was close to overflowing for both the milk and water. Before performing this lab, my group and I created a hypothesis to reflect upon and to state what we believed would dictate the results.…

    The study consisted of 36 male adults, with 18 of them having the diabetes. The results showed that the men with type 2 diabetes are associated with compositional changes in intestinal microbiota. When combining microbiota with metabolic diseases (obesity), the glucose level tolerance should be considered. This will broaden more ways to maintain metabolic diseases by modifying the gut microbiota (Larsen,…

    There may have been errors in the lab that may have affected the results of the lab. There may have been mistakes: a person may have not measured the substances correctly while retrieving the liquids in the graduated cylinder, or not have been watching the conductivity probe while the group was measuring the electrolyte solution. Along with these, there is also the issue of timing the testing incorrectly. Adding onto this, there may have been a slight spill where the accurate amount of the substance being used was not completely added into the water for testing.…

    In this experiment, the competing enantioselective conversion (CEC) method was used to react an unknown secondary alcohol, which is either the R- or the S- enantiomer, with S-HBTM and R-HBTM separately. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was used to determine which reaction was faster. If the S-HBTM was faster, then the unknown secondary alcohol had the R configuration. If the R-HBTM was faster, then the unknown secondary alcohol had the S configuration. 1H NMR was used to determine the molecular structure of the unknown secondary alcohol.…

    Uncatalyzed Reaction Lab

    Introduction In this experiment, we mixed different amounts of reactants and measured the volume of O2 they produced so that we could determine the rate and order of the reaction. Three trials were done, the first trial acted as a baseline, then the following two trials each varied the concentration of a single reactant, allowing us to calculate the order of the reaction. Additionally, the temperature of the solution was changed to see what effect that would have on the rate. Using this information the activation energy for this reaction could be calculated and compared to the activation energy of the uncatalyzed reaction.…

    Chemical Change Lab

    The purpose of this lab is to practice different scientific methods, practice making different observations, and observe chemical and physical changes. What we did was measure out 4 grams of the powder and same with the little ball shaped chemicals that were solid. What happened in this experiment was when you put the liquid chemical called the acid indicator in the different types joined and formed a gas type substance. And our uncertainty was low, we had no idea if we were doing the lab right and if we were going to get the right results but we had it in the bag. We had learned new things like how to make a reaction, gas, chemical, and burn something without a flame.…

    The Unknown Substance Lab

    The guiding question for the Unknown Substance Lab was: What are the identities of the unknown substance? The purpose of the experiment was to broaden and deepen our understanding of conducting a lab and writing a formal lab report. The experiment itself was also important in applying our knowledge about the physical properties of matter. Based on the results from the lab, the challenge was to determine the identity of unknown substances in comparison to the known substances.…

    Testable Hypothesis Lab Report

    The purpose of this lab is to develop the skill of making a testable hypothesis, use TLC plate to identify the compounds in a mixture, and separate a mixture of compounds using column chromatography. The experiment performed was to run a TLC of the unknown number 113 with the 5 standards to determine the components of the unknown drug. The hypothesis identity components were performed in column chromatography to separate out the components of the unknown drug, to evidence the components by using the melting point range. In column chromatography, the compounds get separate based on the interaction with the solvent. Based on the observation and testable hypothesis, indicate that the unknown drug 113 is Anacin.…

    Microbial Community

    This article targets the increased interest of how microbial communities and the environment affect one another through impacting the evolutionary features of the organisms they interact with. Shifts within the environment can consist of predictable and unpredictable changes. Predictable changes are consistent shifts in the surrounding environment that occur daily or seasonally. Animals and plants developed the use of external cues that regulate this when predictable changes in their environment occur. Examples of this regulation may be temperature cycles or the length of time photosynthesis will occur.…
