Figure 7. TA flux across membranes prepared with different proportions of AC:Pectin (CP2 and CP3) and DBS concentrations. Mechanical properties are very important parameters in membranes and coatings. These properties determine the homogeneity, resistance and film forming capacity of the coating. In figure 8 we represent some of the more important mechanical parameters obtained by mean tensile test. Figure 8. Mechanical parameters of the EC:Pectin membranes obtained with CP2 and CP3. In the…

At a young age my father always told me, “Whatever you do, big or small, do it well or don’t do it at all.” I apply that quote to everything I encounter in life. My dedication and determination of becoming a pharmacist has blessed me with numerous opportunities that have helped mold me into the young woman I am today. While in elementary school, I attended a science camp at Meredith College. Fifteen girls and I were invited to expand our knowledge of science. The camp was one week long and…

INTRODUCTION Oral Controlled Release Drug Delivery Systems1, 2: Oral controlled release drug delivery is a drug delivery system that provides*give the continuous oral delivery of drugs at predictable and reproducible kinetics for a predetermined period throughout the course of GI transit and also the system that target the delivery of a drug to a specific region within the GI tract for either local or systemic action. All the pharmaceutical products formulated for systemic delivery via*throw…

which led to an increase in hand-held cameras. With this invention he also invented the flexible roll film made of cellulose nitrate that was used in many cameras making picture taking much easier and making Kodak one of the most famous companies of its time. In the 1940s color photography became a reality with the help of dyes and a bit of science. Due to how flammable and acidic cellulose nitrate was in the 1970s films were made with triacetate which was more stable, flexible and less…

1) What is a difference between endotherms and ectotherms? The difference between an endotherm and an ectotherm is how their body is composed for regulating body temperature. This is important, as body temperature is key to maintain homeostasis. While ectotherms must rely on outside variables to regulate body temperature endotherms can regulate body temperature using mechanism within their own body. A major adaptation in endothermic organisms that is not seen in ectotherms is the large number…

The value of the invasive Water hyacinth classifies as both detrimental and beneficial. The authors of The Jepson Manual, Vascular Plants of California describe the invasive plant as “Perhaps the world’s most troublesome aquatic weed.” The despised notions come from the fact that the aquatic weed increases its capacity to spread in water; peculiarly when the plant distances from its natural enemies in South America. The Water hyacinth growth appears as an island in freshwater bodies, or as a mat…

Respiration (Short-term storage) Carbon that is stored in plants, animals and all living things is released back into the atmosphere during the process of respiration. Energy is required for all living things to carry out life processes therefore stored glucose must be converted to energy by respiration. Oxygen is used to break down carbon stored as sugar for energy by the process of respiration. Carbon dioxide is released as a waste product back into the atmosphere C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O…

conversion of temporary pools of substrates such as carbohydrates and amides into new structures including enzymes and permanent storage such as starch in seeds. Growth includes monomer synthesis, polymerization of monomers into polymers such as cellulose and proteins, organization of polymers into organelles and cells and tool maintenance…

ISSUE: Kraft Heinz cheese which labelled “100% Grated Parmesan Cheese” was found to have 3.8% cellulose. Although Bloomberg News story mentioned that between 2 to 4 percent is considered to be an “acceptable level”, consumers still consider this case as a fraud and even filed a class action lawsuit against Kraft Heinz in federal district court on 2016, 27 January. On this day, a class action lawsuit against Kraft Heinz in the federal Northern District court was filed by an Illinois woman named…
