Lead concentrations can be measured in various body tissues or by measuring the biomarkers of the toxic effects of lead. The concentration of lead in the body has been measured in blood, bone, nails, hair, teeth, urine, faces and saliva for screening and diagnostic purposes. In all samples, specimen collection, storage and processing must be meticulously performed to avoid contamination of the samples with lead in the surrounding environment. Teeth, nail and bone reflect long term exposure to…

To many, this may seem absurd or even erroneous, but that’s the truth behind each poem I’m submitting, they’re spontaneous without any exact aim other than to dispose of an emotion or answer a question resulting from my musings. These are by no means a written “Starry Night” or a mosaic from ancient Greece but each is more of a basic sketch for the reader to find their own…

Throughout the day I look forward to going to chemistry and understanding what we are learning. Chemistry continues to be fun even though there are sometimes challenges of not understanding it or getting confused. The labs in the classroom are incredibly interesting and never fail to amaze me I chose to pursue higher level coursework by taking AP Chemistry although it is challenging, I do not regret taking it. It showed me how rigorous and fascinating it is to learn about this science. Chemistry…

an RBMK-1000 model nuclear reactor, which used “enriched U-235 uranium fuel to heat water creating steam that drives the reactors’ turbines and generate electricity” (http://www.livescience.com/39961-chernobyl.html). The plant had 4 reactors with graphite moderators, which slows down the release of neutron during fission. Essentially, used to maintain the chain reaction. The reactors were powered by enriched uranium oxide pellets enclosed in a fuel rod. As for the coolant, general there is two…

1. How do you adjust the pulling force of the mousetrap? Adjusting the length of the snapper will change the pulling force—making something move as it goes in a certain direction. Making the snapper on the mousetrap longer will decrease the pulling force and a shorter snapper will increase it.…

of it. Conclusion- The amino acids in unknown mixture A were Glycine and Valine. The amino acids in unknown mixture B were Glycine and Leucine. The amino acids in unknown mixture C were Lysine and Prolise. Questions- The markings from a lead/graphite pencil will not enter the mobile phase so it will remain stationary while the ink from a pen will enter the…

myself. The feeling of drifting the explicit outlines clinched in my mind into my fingertips is irreplaceable. With a dainty pencil placed in my right hand, and an unmarked paper in front of me, I outset sensations of color. With every stroke of graphite, an image is being born that once lived in the depths of my mind. Seeing my imagination come to life…

Exponential Innovations: The Tensions of The Cold War The world was thrust into the Atomic era by Fat Boy and Little Man, the two atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of WWII (Nelson 212). These bombs served as a demonstration to the world of the immense power created by splitting the atom. This fostered the exigence for the prevailing global superpowers, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) and the United States (US), to develop larger, more destructive nuclear…
