By not acquiring permission of these subjects and causing their deaths, they participated in unethical and immoral activities. Although some prisoners of the Holocaust were not experimented on, they also experienced corrupt treatment in their everyday lives. Many immoral…

DNA fragmentation assay DNA extraction was done by a standard procedure using proteinase K digestion with phenol: chloroform: isoamyl alcohol extraction method and 10 μg of the extracted DNA were loaded onto 2% agarose gel containing 0.5 μg/ml ethidium bromide. DNA fragments were separated by gel electrophoresis at 80 V for 90 min in Tris-acetate-EDTA (TAE) buffer. Gels…

It is vital to reduce contaminates and decrease the risk of microbes in drinking water. This process is accomplished through water disinfection. This procedure can be done though several methods; however, chlorine and chloramine are the most frequently used forms of chemical disinfection (Serrano, Silva, & Gallego, 2011). When this process is utilized, there is an increased risk in the release of unwanted by-products can cause severe health risk. The use of chemical disinfection methods,…

The NMR sample was prepared by dissolving the collected product in chloroform-D (CDCl3) and DCM for mass spec. The 1H NMR spectra of the 2-bromo-4-methnoxy-phenol product reported significant peaks at (in ppm): δ = 3.02 (s, 2H), 3.75 (s, 4H), 6.97 (1H, dd), 6.81 (1H, dd,), 6.78 (1H, d), 5.15 (1H, s) 3.32 (m, 12H), 3.63 (d…

Sometimes, he would fill the hotel rooms with gas and his guests would silently die in their sleep, or he would use chloroform soaked rags and suffocated them to death. After he murdered his guests, he would then burn their bodies at the bottom of the hotel’s basement. From these crimes, Holmes is said to be one of America’s first known serial killers (Larson, 2003). Furthermore…

INTRODUCTION The Love Canal episode is one of the major and most publicized environmental disaster recorded in America history. In recent time, it has been described as an epidemic. It became a focus of intensive and extensive studies on health effect, environmental studies and epidemiologic research (Friis and Seller, 2014, p.20; Jasanoff, 1998 p.83). This paper attempts to bring to light how a community is forced to bear the consequences of decision made by greedy and negligent corporate…

Chapter Three - Conclusions 3.1 Conclusions This research aimed to verify the synthesis protocol for HPA-12 and analogues from aldehydes of Greatrex et al. (2014). Limited success in synthesising required quantities had a negative impact on the outcomes of this research, and no reasons were identified for the low yields that were obtained. Additional time, or resolution of issues resulting in low yields, would have allowed additional research and confirmation of the synthesis protocol. Long…
