Task 2 & 3: A. Pile the seaweed up on the tin lid supported on a tripod and begin heating with a strong Bunsen flame. It may have to be added a portion at a time during the heating, given the quantity to be reduced to ash. When all has been turned to ash, about a dessertspoonful of residue will remain. During the experiment we piled the seaweed into a tin container and placed it on top of a tri-pod which was placed over a Bunsen burner allowing the seaweed to burn and inevitably turn into ash so…

During the laboratory section two devices were used; these were the DE2-115 board and a computer, containing the software system Quartus II. Each of these devices were very significant for gathering information during the duration of the lab and shall be explained further. The DE2-115 board was the device provided in the lab that displayed the output for viewing by the student. The portions of the DE2-115 board that were used during the duration of the lab were the switches, the LEDs, and the…

I strive to enhance the quality of human life. The human race is plagued with disease, disorders and societal plights that treatment with traditional medicine would cease to assuage the recurrent issues. For example, diabetes is currently one of the top health challenges in the United States. The influx of diabetic patients will not decrease with insulin treatment alone, one must alter their injurious diet. Physicians are expected to treat patients based on symptoms. The analysis is then capped…

When Jim speaks of the “real, real” truth, this suggests the acknowledgement of his prior inability to face the moral conscious effects of the Patna affair, while the “real” truth suggests his seemingly moral redemption in Patusan. Prior to his time on the Patna, Jim was aboard a training ship fantasizing about saving passengers from sinking ships and other heroic feats, when a group of fellow seamen notified him of a nearby conflict. Jim stood to see the seamen rushing up ladders to the deck,…

article examines “laboratory operations” and “clinical pathology knowledge processes” to discuss the need for clinical pathologist to implement an institutional model through unified laboratory networks to protect their services. The author utilizes strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) methodology to study data processes and propose future strategies for clinical pathologist and laboratories to build laboratory service networks that offer exceptional organized laboratory…

“Contrary to what the stereotypes suggest, not all doctors think they are the only ones with the answers. In fact, more than 70 percent of physician’s decisions are based on laboratory results”(Katz). While the doctors may have a good idea about the diagnosis based upon their past experience and expertise, the definitive and final diagnosis always rests with the pathologist. Although clinical pathology is a very important medical field it does not always get the recognition it deserves, one of…

Biomedical equipment technicians or medical equipment repairers troubleshoot, install, and maintain medical devices used in patient treatment and diagnosis. Projections show that the growth of biomedical equipment technician jobs will be excellent in the coming years. The majority of medical equipment repairers hold at least a 2-year associate's degree in biomedical technology, although a 4-year bachelor's degree may be needed for career advancement. Required Education Associate's or bachelor's…

Certification in Basic Infectious Disease I chose to receive a certification on the material of Basic Infectious Diseases because I plan on going into the medical field. I am not overly educated with epidemiology, so I wanted to increase my knowledge in relation to this subject. I believe it will help with basic information that I will need to know as a nurse. I also chose this topic because this certificate only required around an hour of my time, which was rewarding in the content provided,…

Tylenol, known for their pain and fever relieving tablets faced a crisis in October 1982. An unknown suspect put 65 milligrams of cyanide into some extra-strength tablets (Interactive Media Lab, College of Journalism and Communications, University of Florida, n.d.). As a result, seven people died (Kaplan, n.d.). James Burke, the Johnson & Johnson’s chairman and chief executive officer (CEO), handled the crisis. He recalled 31 million bottles of Tylenol capsules, and offered a replacement…
