Iodine

patient include but are not limited to the following: the patient should not drink or eat six to eight hours before the test, the patient should tell the doctor if he/she is allergic to seafood or any medications, had a reaction to contrast dye or iodine in the past, any medications he/she is currently taking, or if the patient may be pregnant. The patient will be awake and able to follow instructions during the procedure, but will have little to no discomfort during this…

1. Redox Catalyst Catalyst is defined as a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without changing its chemical composition and affecting the standard Gibbs free energy, by lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction. It does so by providing an alternative reaction pathway. In redox reaction, the key chemical event is the net movement of electrons from one reactant to the other. The oxidation state of atoms are changed. Transition metal is used as redox catalyst due…

holder. The urine sample is filled into a syringe and attached the filter holder whereby the urine is expeled. The filter is removed with forceps and placed on a microscopic slide. The whole filter is examined for eggs after staining with Lugol’s iodine. Other parasites include Wuchereria bancrofti and Onchocerca volvulu. 1.5).1)Name three anaemias which could give you these full blood count…

Fiber is of two types: Soluble and Insoluble Fiber. Soluble fiber is the type of fiber which dissolves in water. Soluble fiber is found in different types of fruits and vegetables including apples, oatmeal, oat bran, dried beans, and rye flour. Meanwhile, Insoluble fiber is fiber which does not dissolve in water because of its high cellulose content. Insoluble fiber is present in the bran of grains, pulp of fruits, and the skin of different vegetables. The two types of fiber have different…

The heterocyclic compounds naming tetrahydrocarbazoles having the significant biological properties. The newly substituted tetrahydrocarbazole derivatives were prepared from substituted phenylhydrazine and cyclohexanone in glacial acetic acid under reflux. These intermediates on reaction with substituted aromatic acid chlorides in alkaline media finally converted to N-Substituted tetrahydrocarbazoles. Fifteen compounds are synthesized and charaterized by their melting point (MP), IR, NMR, MS…

chronically malnourished populations. Micronutrient deficiencies can cause preventable blindness, maternal death and birth defects. PHC works with national governments and food manufacturers to find low-cost, effective means of adding iron, folic acid, and iodine to local food supplies. Improving…

I took 12 pennies and then divided those pennies up into 4 equal groups and then I created three solutions for my project which are: A toothpaste solution, bleach solution vinegar and salt solution, and vinegar/baking soda solution My hypothesis is that the salt and vinegar solution is going to win because vinegar is a liquid that is produced from the fermentation of ethanol into acetic acid . vinegar consists of acetic acid(CH3COOH, water and trace amounts of other chemicals which may include…

Annotated Bibliography: Nuclear Energy Ferguson, Charles D. Nuclear Energy: What Everyone Needs to Know. Oxford UP, 2011. In this book Charles D. Ferguson, president of the Federation of American Scientists, writes about how nuclear energy is formed, the health risks it can cause, and the cost of nuclear energy plants. He gives the three sources to create nuclear energy: fission, fusion, and radioactive decay. Farther into book Ferguson gives background information on nuclear energy and the…

In order to assess if the full effect of anaesthesia has taken effect, the rat’s pedal reflex will be tested. Essentially, after a given period of time (approximately 5-10 minutes) after administration of anesthesia, the foot of the rat will be pinched. If the animal flinches or responds with a sudden jerk, the anesthesia has not fully taken effect and additional time or dosage is required to put the animal under. If there is no response, the animal is ready for surgery. Approximately 3-5 rats…

Perhaps a change in diet raises skeptical questions for some people, because they probably believe their usual diet is healthy and good. Some questions that might arise would be; if it does not kill you why not eat it? Or why would we have animals if not to eat them? Or even how come some doctors agree with a vegetarian diet and some do not? These types of questions would probably come from a person that has tried being a vegetarian, but failed or a person that does not care about nutrition,…
