Lipid

Cholesterol and steroids are lipids that are very important for your health.First off a steroid is a lipid because it is insoluble in water and are also hydrophobic.Cholesterol is a lipid because it is also a steroid but is mainly synthesized for your liver.Steroids are important for our bodies because it is a substance that is crucially important if you would like your body function properly.That’s why steroids and cholesterol are important for your body. A steroid is a certain type of an…

In the past, most molds(fungi) were classified within the Deuteromycota but now can be classified into divisons of zygomycota and ascomycota. Slime molds are different they are now classified into protista. Molds cause biodegradation of natural materials, which can be unwanted when it becomes food spoilage or damage to property. Typically, molds secrete hydrolytic enzymes, mainly from the hyphal tips. These enzymes degrade complex biopolymers such as starch, cellulose and lignin into simpler…

The human skin is responsible to act as the first line as defense in protecting our body from the external environment and harmful materials such as bacteria. Archaea can be found on human tissue or epidermis, but however, their affluence is unknown and rarely studied. The number of microorganisms on the human epidermis is dependent on a variety of things. For example, the location, presence of moisture, age, sex, immune system and living conditions play an important role in the composition of…

(MDA) and High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), fibrinolysis marker PAI-1and lipid profiles. Subject and Methods: Blood was drawn and DNA extracted from 90 subjects (46 cases and 44 controls). The 4G/5G polymorphism of PAI-1 was amplified using specific primers. Amplified products were visualized by staining with Ethidium bromide after electrophoresis in agarose. Risk factors PAI-1, MDA, hs-CRP and lipid profile were compared between 46 angiographically diagnosed coronary artery…

to help them maintain consciousness. The pathways and reactions vary depending on one’s physical state and time. The metabolism of an athlete at the start of a race, after five minutes and after forty-five minutes can be observed, as the ratio of lipids and carbohydrates vary depending on the time of the race. Due to the different energy densities and the body’s varying abilities to oxidise glucose, they dominate over each other at different times during the race as they are the most dominant…

In general, enzyme thermostability is an intrinsic property, determined by the primary structure of the protein. However, external environmental factors including cations, substrates, co-enzymes, modulators, polyols and proteins often increase enzyme thermostability. With some exceptions, enzymes present in thermophiles are more stable than their mesophilic counterparts. Some organisms produce enzymes with different thermal stability properties when grown at lower and higher temperatures. There…

DOX and omega-3. This might indicate that omega-3 have a protective effect against DOX-induced oxidative damage. omega-3 treatment prevents oxidative damage. Takayama et al. (2010) reported that hepatic antioxidant enzymes increased, while hepatic lipid peroxide concentrations prominently…

The disease is also called alpha-galactosidase-A deficiency. Fabry disease is one of several lipid storage disorders and the only X-linked lipid storage disease (where the mother carries the affected gene on the X chromosome that determines the child's gender and passes it to her son). Boys have a 50 percent chance of inheriting the disorder and her daughters have a…

Daily Intake A three-day span of meal entries was inputted to the iProfile journal. Meals were chronicled around breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. Protein, carbohydrates, and lipids were included in my daily meals. Within the span of three days, I indulged in both healthy and unhealthy meal choices based on convenience and strategic meal scheduling. Proteins were an essential portion of my meals, which consisted of baked chicken, honey baked ham, hot dog, grilled chicken, eggs, and baked…
