Results: This study compared the antimicrobial effect of two herbal oils (Coconut and Nigella sativa oil) versus Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2 % as gold standard on 3 types of oral cariogenic microorganisms (Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacilli and Candida albicans) 1- Streptococcus mutans: The results of this study showed that coconut oil had a statistically significant higher inhibitory effect on SM with decrease in number of CFU from 500 to 40 and 53.7 and percentage of reduction 92%…
of not stealing bases. Most of them had built their careers on stealing bases and manufacturing runs, and now they were forbidden to do what scored runs. “The playoffs were about getting runs…about street creed, not science” (pg. 268, Moneyball) The approach of the A’s was seen as flawed and made no sense. It went against the game and how the game was designed to be played. How could you not steal bases? The game was about getting more runs, and to get more runs, you steal bases. The A’s were…
single pulse flow, a series of small scale pulse flows, or base flows, should also be done over a longer time period. Clearly from the data analysed above, the effects of a single pulse flow are short lived and must be elongated in order to make a lasting difference in the river’s streamflow. Although this was intended in the original Minute 319 plan, due to water-right and political issues, as well as high costs in terms of money and time, base flows were not implemented. Note that in order to…
nucleotide subunits: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). Each base must form a hydrogen bond with its respective compatible base, therefore adenine always bonds with thymine and guanine always bonds with cytosine. DNA is used to transfer genetic information to be able to duplicate a cell completely and successfully(6). Mutations occur when the replication of DNA strands result in misplacement of the bases A, T, G, and C. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is important to the human…
Friedrich Miescher (reviewed in Dahm 2005). Further work was performed by other chemists, including Phoebus Levene who identified the components of the molecule, including the presence of ribose sugars and phosphate groups, as well as four nucleotide bases; the pyrimidines, cytosine (C), and thymine (T); and the purines, guanine (G), and adenine (A) (Levene 1919). Erwin Chargaff showed that in DNA the amount of adenine nucleotides equalled the number of thymine nucleotides and the number…
This process comprises of three major stages: transcription, translation and protein synthesis. During transcription, the DNA unwinds and unzips leaving the base pairs exposed. Helicase is used in this reaction- the enzyme breaks the hydrogen bonds between the complementary bases. Activated RNA nucleotides then bind with the complementary base pairs exposed where A binds with U, G binds with C- the enzyme which catalyses the reaction is RNA Polymerase. The final mRNA strand which is produced is…
abundance acids or bases. The kidneys have some capacity to modify the measure of corrosive or base that is discharged, but since the kidneys make these modifications more gradually than the lungs do, this pay by and large takes a few days. Yet another mechanism for controlling blood pH involves the use of buffer systems, which guard against sudden shifts in acidity and alkalinity. The pH buffer systems are combinations of the body's own naturally occurring weak acids and weak bases(alkaline).…
producing duplicates of each gene, which are then coloured with fluorescent dyes in order to distinguish the nucleotide bases in the DNA. A DNA sequencer is then used in order to graph and print out the entire sequence of nucleotide base sequences from both organisms, which is then compared. The results prove that the more closely related species, the less differences in nucleotide base sequences. Mitochondrial DNA It is common for DNA to be located in the mitochondria of a cell.…
fabric which was sewn and sealed to create and air tight free moving form. For the construction of the base, concrete form tubes and lumber was used. The cardboard form was covered with monster mud or special effects film, which is basically two-parts plaster to one-part paint. After applying two smooth coats with a brush, a roller was used to apply two more coats. This process adds texture to the base and hides the seams of the cardboard. Paper letters are cut and taped to tube to mark…
To begin with, it looks like a diamond and it has bases and they are first, second, and third. For instance, there is a fence in the outfield that lets you know if you hit a homerun. However, the fence could be 200 feet away from home plate but that matters on what field you play on and what league you're…
