Fiske claims that “heroes and villains are equally likely to use violence and to initiate it, but that heroes were successful in their violence, whereas villains finally were not.” In the film, Corben and Superman equally use violence to attack each other, but Superman eventually defeats Corben during the boat scene. After getting thrown overboard, Corben did not know how to swim in his new Metallo body, therefore leading to his death. This shows that even though they both were very powerful and used violence against each other, the hero, Superman, was successful in his violence. This perpetuates the idea that “good defeats all,” as even the strongest villains can be defeated in the name of…

In John Metallo’s piece, “Banning Junk Food in Schools Is Not Effective”, he discusses the reasons why the sale of junk food should not be prohibited in schools. He believes that the sale of junk food should not be ban in schools because a child’s eating habit is developed at home, not at school. Therefore, it is the parent’s responsibility in the decision that their child makes on what to eat at school. He furthers adds on that a lot of the junk food in schools are actually brought in and that…

Coli), Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter species, Yersinia species and many other species.C Enterobacteriaceae can develop resistance to the antibiotic class of carbapenems and are classified as carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). CRE can develop resistance to carbapenems by producing an enzyme called carbapenemase and the most common mechanisms in the United States includes Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), New Delhi metallo-β-lactamases (NDM-1), Verona integron-encoded…

very simple to prepare (Bruske). If schools do not even have a stove and only cook prepackaged food then there is no way to make food from scratch or as healthy as they wish to be. Children will still eat junk food at home and possibly at school if they do not like the food that the school is serving. More meals throughout the year are consumed at home rather than in school. In an article titled “Banning Junk Food in Schools Is Not Effective” John Metallo, a retired high school principal and…

options allows for a strong boost in readiness and alertness in the classroom, yielding higher marks for students willing to go the extra mile. Regardless of the nutritional values of junk foods sold in schools nationwide, school districts are not responsible for determining the foods their students choose to eat on a daily basis, and are not to blame for any unhealthy eating habits formed during a child’s development. The responsibility of students’ eating habits must not be placed on the…

referred to as RtxA1 [32]. RtxA1 is believed to trigger excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by the host, which would lead to necrotic cell death and apoptosis [33]. Another toxin responsible for damage is lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which is found in the outer membrane of the organism [34]. LPS mediates the endotoxic shock associated with severe V. vulnificus disease, which can lead to death [35]. In addition, V. vulnificus also produces hemolysins and metallo-proteases. The…

When they are bound, they can't have any effects on the body and they are removed from the body (Edta, 2016). So this means that adding EDTA has removed all the metal ions that were free in solution. As the specific activity of the Arginase is zero when EDTA is added it shows that Arginase required metal ions in solution to be active. This means that Arginase is a metallo-enzyme as it requires a metal ion to be…

are still unsound. Nevertheless schools don’t have much of a choice. Unless they wish to shut down, they need a solution that bears more capital than just student lunch alone. The medical director of the Center for Nutrition and Preventive Medicine, Donald Schumacher conveys “ School lose more money everyday because it costs more money to prepare meals than the reimbursement they get from the federal government”(Bornstein 3). Just because junk is offered, it’s not being forced down kids…

mechanism of action of conventional beta lactams [11]. Although vancomycin, a glycopeptide, and a number of other drugs maintain its action against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, there has been reports of emerging resistance [1]. The number of available treatments is gradually decreasing while there is a likely increase in the virulence of multidrug resistant organisms [2]. Furthermore, antibiotic resistance in gram negative bacteria poses a greater threat. This is because the…

Proteases are classified by their principal functional group in their active site (serine, thiol, carboxyl and metallo) and their hydrolysing mechanism (endo or exon-proteases). Endo-proteinases are more widely used in food protein hydrolysis than exo-proteases. Moreover, endo-proteinases produce relatively large peptides while exopeptidases hydrolyse the terminal peptide bonds removing amino acids from either the N terminus (aminopeptidases) or the C terminus, (carboxypeptidases) (Kristinsson &…
