Calcium Supplementation in Dogs There are many reasons why owners feel the need to supplement their dogs with certain nutrients. They may be trying to fill holes in their dog’s diet to ensure that the dog is getting the proper nutrition, or they may feel that the life stage that their animal is in requires a higher dosage or certain nutrients or minerals. Whatever the case may be for introducing certain mineral and nutrient supplements into a dog’s diet, it is important to understand the issues…
indicates the possible identities. When salt #287 was exposed to flame, the color that was noted was a bright opaque orange, whereas the flame color for Sodium Chloride was a yellow color. Due to this, based on this test only, salt #287 could be Calcium Chloride dihydrate, which is the only salt to produce an orange flame. This lab test shows that the unknown salt is not Sodium Chloride as their flame colors are…
Purpose I’m writing to propose ATC purchase an alternative traction device instead of snow chains. The current method of complying with mandatory snow chain laws is to purchase metal snow chains for the drivers to carry through the states and provinces where it is mandatory to have them in the trucks during the winter months. Situation Snow chains are cumbersome, heavy, and are often stolen when left behind for the ETLLC group to retrieve. The approximate weight of a set of snow chains is…
parafibromin protein which is a tumor suppressor as well. A mutation here causes a decrease of the parafibromin protein. The CASR gene is involved in the production of the calcium-sensing receptor protein (CaSR). CaSR helps to regulate the amount of calcium in the body, by controlling the production of the parathyroid hormone. The calcium molecules bind to the CaSR and this activates the receptor. The activated receptor sends signals to block the production and release of the parathyroid…
The major factor that allows calcium channel blockers to be effective are ethyl groups at the 3 and 5 position, and cyclic substituents on the 4 position. Furthermore, it was found that electronegativity has no effect on blocking ability; as a result, electron donating and withdrawing…
Nifedipine Nifedipine is a common drug used to treat a variety of disorders from hypertension and angina to preventing premature labour in pregnancy (Aedla, N, et al. 2012). It originated in the early 1970’s from the works of Bayer, who developed the short-acting formulation that proved to be successful in controlling high blood pressure, however due to its side effects, was modified to a long-acting formula which produced fewer side effects and is commonly used in modern obstetric practice…
volume ratio. Each granule had a high surface area to volume ratio and each powder had a very high ratio. The reason why the difference between the granules and the powder was not a lot was because each granule was pretty flat, and quite a lot of calcium carbonate molecules were accessible by the hydrochloric acid. If the granules had been less flat, the difference would be higher. The graph of the powder shows how a lot of gas produced in…
how the amounts of sodium carbonate and calcium chloride affect the chemical reaction made: calcium carbonate. Introduction: This lab was to show the relationship between reactants and products. In this case, we used calcium chloride and sodium carbonate. This made a chemical reaction and eventually formed calcium carbonate. The goal of this lab was to determine how the amounts of sodium carbonate and calcium chloride change or affect the amount of calcium carbonate formed after the…
Eggshell from Gallus Gallus Domesticus as an Additive Ingredient in Making Calcium-Rich Cookies Ken R. Soto, Alyssa Jhayne E. Del Rosario, Harlene S. Rinos Caloocan National Science and Technology High School, Congress Road, Bagumbong, Caloocan City Introduction Eggshells have the most significant role as a component of an egg. It serves as the protection of the inner extremities of an egg such as the albumen, chalazae, the yolk, and the vitelline membrane. However, people dispose it without…
widespread problem facing many marine ecosystems with the growing emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere. It the coral, shell forming organisms and some phytoplankton in these ecosystems that are of the most concern with rising CO2 levels due the calcium carbonate that forms their exoskeletons and shells. The acidification of the ocean creates inadequate pH levels for the marine ecosystems. It is the coral polyps that are of the highest degree of interest as to their reactions to the acidification…
