Albumin

Bone profile includes testing the levels of calcium, inorganic phosphate, albumin, and alkaline phosphatase. [2]. Lipid profile includes testing HDL cholesterol, LDL calculated, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol ratio. [3] Liver profile incudes testing total protein, albumin, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, gamma glutamyl aminotransferase (GGT), aspartamine aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransaminase…

1 – Introduction Haemocompatibility is an evaluation of the effects of medical devices on blood and the blood components which they come in contact with. It confers to a set of properties that indicate the ability of the material to come in contact with the blood without resulting in adverse reactions. In terms of regulatory requirements, the material is tested in relation to 5 main test categories: Thrombus Coagulation Platelets Haematology Immunology Problems with haemocompatibility…

I have several things which I like very much. They consist of human evolution. This article will describe my personal opinion about how mammary glands and immune system are interconnected. It is a very interesting theme because the evolution of mammary glands originates from ancient times, when they have been presented in the form of immune protective glands. At that time, they acted bactericidal effect on an organism to fight with various infections. Precisely, in response to these processes,…

Week Eight Journal Mrs. C. C. was a sixty-seven-year-old Caucasian woman who presented to the office with bruises on her left forearm and right hand. She had a history of diabetes, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, peripheral vascular disease, and arthritis. Upon completion of her history and physical exam, large dark purplish irregular patches were noted on the left dorsal portion of bilateral forearms. The areas did not blanch and appeared to be isolated areas to bilateral forearms. There…

In 2012 the new movement towards integrated care organisations, which refers to new models called “integrated care pilots”. The policy aims to deliver independency for people with LTC at all stages, therefore provides new ways of collaboration between organisations as well as cross the boundaries between primary, secondary, community and social care (Department of Health, 2012). Even with applying the new policy there some existing setback such as, the IT infrastructure were patient do not have…

Biological macromolecules are large molecules made up of smaller organic molecules. There are four classes of bio macromolecules : Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acid. For carbohydrates and proteins these smaller molecules are known as monomers. These similar or identical monomers are covalently bonded together to create a large polymer molecule. Monomers, or base units are bonded together to create larger molecules via dehydration. This involves the removal of a water molecule at…

Diabetes Mellitus Type One Diabetes mellitus type one (DMT1) is a chronic disease in which the affected individual is unable to produce insulin. This is just one form of diabetes, another is the commonly known type two diabetes. Type two diabetes is a chronic disease in which the individual’s body becomes resistant to insulin, or the ability to produce insulin is impaired. Type two diabetes is not as severe as type one, but is still able to be dangerous when left untreated. Another type of…

Question 1 Assess Mr Logan’s medication chart. Identify and explain three significant risks that may be associated with the use of the medicines (home or inpatient use) for Mr Logan. The total dose of parenteral digitalisation for the elderly is 25-500microgram. This may be given slowly by Intra Venous Route, single dose or divided doses each 125-250 microgram at intervals of 4-6 hours. The immediate STAT dose given at 1100 01/05 was the total dose, the prescribed post expected doses 4 hourly…

already in each of the supplements beakers. We distrubited 1mL of each solutions into 16 test tubes. We also had to heat up the Benedict’s reactions to 65 degrees Celsius for 4-7 mintues for the reaction to occur. We also took a startch and a protein (albumin) and made two more solutions. We had a total volume for each protein and starch of 2,100uL in the 5 test tubes of each concentration of protein and starch. We had to add an additional 1,500uL of water to the starch solutionWe used the…

TRIS Hcl, NBT, NADH, Ethanol, PMS, l-ascorbic acid 1. The superoxide radicals is generated in 3 ml of TrisHCl buffer (16 mM, pH 8.0) containing 1 ml of NBT (50 μM), 1 ml NADH (78 μM) and ethanol extract of sample (25 – 50 μg). 2. The reaction was started by adding 1 ml of PMS solution (10 μM) to the mixture. 3. The reaction mixture was incubated at 25° C for 5 min, the absorbance was read at 560 nm using a spectrophotometer (Schimadzu UV-Vis 1700) against blank samples using l- ascorbic acid…
