For example, more than 2.9 million serum vitamin B12 tests were performed in 2010 in Ontario at a cost of $40 million.(Ogunkolade et al., 2013) Vitamin B12(Cobalamine) is a group of compounds with corrinoid ring (4-pyrrole rings) with cobalt (Co). Vitamin B12 are synthesized exclusively by bacteria and have different functional groups chelated to Co. (University of Aberdeen, 2016) Vitamin B12 and folate depend on each other for activation. Both vitamin B12 and folate are very important…

Following WHMIS, it is vital that safety be a priority when conducting labs. Especially when handling chemicals, the ideal setup of labs should avoid any obstructions and potential hazards that may occur. This is due to the possible dangers: flammable and combustible chemicals (alcohol, sodium), oxidation (hair dye), bio hazardous products (which causes AIDS, rabies), toxic items (lead, benzene), poison (carbon monoxide), corrosive compounds (bleach), dangerously reactive chemicals (fluorine)…

Urban trees provide a wide range of environmental, ecological, social, cultural and economic benefits. However, as natural objects, they are constantly under stress, and living in an unnatural habitat, which will primarily affect the tree crown. In this study, the Diameter at Breast Height (DBH), Crown Live Ratio (LCR), Crown Dieback (CDBK), Crown Transparency (CT), and Crown Chlorosis (CC) of trees at University of Toronto – St. George campus were assessed by field measurements and Google…

Cinematic Representations of Cognition in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Howard and Joel walk into the lab.

Assessing the body condition score (BCS) of a horse is needed in order to evaluate the physical health of the horse. The ideal BCS of many horses is between a 5 and 6, while a thoroughbred in the racing industry has an ideal BCS of a 4. While the BCS of a horse is a good way to determine the overall body condition of a horse, it does not tell whether or not the horse is getting the required nutrients in the appropriate amounts. The required nutrients can be calculated into the horse’s diet based…
