clinical responsibilities is to ensure the availability of up-to-date client information leaflets in the branch as well as in outline clinics in order to provide excellent service and best practice for patients. My responsibilities also include daily calibration checks, maintenance of Audiological equipment and cleaning procedures. Word count…
After thymol blue was added, the pH-buffered samples developed the colors of red, yellow, green, and blue as the pH of the solutions increased (Figure 3.1A). The pH-2 buffer turned to a light red-pink color, while pH-3 to pH-6 displayed very similar forms of rich yellow or light orange (Figure 3.1A). The neutral pH buffer solution appeared as a saffron green colored solution (Figure 3.1A). A mixture of yellow and green was apparent in the dijon color of the pH-8 buffer (Figure 3.1A). The buffer…
theoretical predictions (made from the calculated value of μ, there is a relatively good agreement, especially when neglecting the πc result. The slightly higher gradient of the experimental results is likely due to an error (systematic) in the calibration of the load cell, causing it to become more inaccurate at higher tensions.…
Study Design and Questionnaire construction A cross-sectional anonymous survey was carried out among medical students, residents and attending physicians from two medical faculties in France (Faculty of Medicine of Nancy, University of Lorraine; Faculty of Medicine of Poitiers, University of Poitiers). The instrument “Nancy-Poitiers Translational Research Study” was developed in the Faculty of Medicine of Nancy after an extensive literature review. Content validity of the questionnaire was…
Statement of Purpose I am a senior at Wichita State University studying Biomedical Engineering. I expect to graduate in May of 2018 with magna cum laude distinction. As an undergraduate, I have the opportunity to tutor underclassmen in physics. Eventually, I became an undergraduate teaching assistant as well. Both of these made me realize how much I enjoy helping students learn, which made me think about pursuing graduate education to become a college professor. Assisting in a biomechanics lab…
spectrophotometer (UV-1800) against blank. 4.2.5.2 Preparation of calibration curve of Tinidazole in phosphate buffer of pH 7.4 The stock solution was further diluted with phosphate buffer of pH 7.4. Serial dilutions were carried out to get different concentration 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10μg/ml. The absorbance was measured at λmax on double beam UV- VIS spectrophotometer (UV-1800) against blank. 4.2.5.3 Preparation of calibration curve of Tinidazole in phosphate buffer of pH 6.8 The stock…
Plant proteases with excellent catalytical properties perform many functions in biological systems. Vallaris solanacea, a new plant protease has been identified and screened effectively for its caseinolytic activity. This protein activity was specifically inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate, which showed that it is a cysteine protease. Preliminary investigations such as effect of pH and temperature on the caseinolytic activity of crude protease were done. Stability towards temperature and pH…

Comparing the Absorptivity of Two Sequestration Agents Macy Freireich* & Alekhya Geddan ABSTRACT In this experiment it was decided which sequestration agent, charcoal or magnetic bentonite clay, was more effective at absorbing the PAH model, Procion Red MX-5B. By way of spectrophotometry, the collected absorptivity and concentration values of each of the diluted samples of the Porcion Red MX-5B were graphed and evaluated in comparison to the measured absorptivity of the dye extracted from…
