What is Mandrax? Mandrax is an industry name of a synthetic barbiturate type drug that is made by combining a variety of chemicals which include Methaqualone, which is its active ingredient and which has sedative hypnotic properties and Diphenhydramine which is an antihistamine and also has sedative properties. Mandrax comes is a tablet form in a variety of colors such as; white, pink, purple, brown and green and is marked with the manufacturers symbol. Methaqualone was first synthesized in…

FlowMAP is a microfluidic platform developed to measure the overall hemostatic phenotype of an individual, coagulation profile. It is willing to replace the current tests of thrombogenecity, that are focused on isolated components of clotting and under standardized conditions. These individual’s hemostatic profiles under certain conditions and particular drugs will lead to a better understanding of bleeding risk ad clinical clotting prediction. Unlike other complex bench-top tests, it can…

Growing up I always wanted to be in a career that would make a significant difference, it wasn't until 10th grade where I saw an article on pathology and it was then that I knew this would be the career for me. Pathology can be defined as “a branch of medical science primarily concerning the cause, origin and nature of disease. It involves the examination of tissues, organs, bodily fluids and autopsies in order to study and diagnose disease” (Sally Robertson). The work that this career does is…

Cancer is a group of diseases involved in the abnormal growth of cells with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Not all tumours are cancerous, benign tumours do not spread to other parts of the body while malignant tumours can spread to other parts of the body. Leukaemia causes the DNA of immature blood cells, mainly white blood cells, to become damaged. The disease causes blood cells to grow and divide chaotically. Whereas normal blood cells die after a while and are…

reminiscent of the fractal nature of the world. As a scientist, it reminds me of the beauty and complexity of physical matter. While a rock seems to be a complete entity, looking closer allows you to see individual grains. Looking at those grains under a microscope and you see that each grain is composed of certain minerals. Using an even more powerful technology allows you to see that each mineral is composed of certain elements. These elements, that originated 13 billion years ago in space,…

were spread as a thin layer onto a potassium bromide cell and then scanned between 4000cm-1 to 400cm-1 range. The resulting IR spectra of ARP and plain ME were then compared with AME to detect any possible interaction between the drug and different components used. 5.3 pH measurement 21,22 The pH value of ME was determined using digital pH meter (Equip-Tronics, EQ-610), standardized using pH 4 and 7 buffers before use. 5.4 Viscosity: The rheological properties of the microemulsion are…

The Autonomic Nervous System also influences metabolism and thermal regulation. There are three main parts of the Autonomic Nervous System: the sympathetic nervous system, enteric nervous system, and parasympathetic nervous system. Ganglions are components of the autonomic nervous system and therefore has preganglionic and postganglionic fibers. Sympathetic Nervous System has thoracombular outflow. On stimulation of the body, its effects are widely spread across the body system. This is in…

An autopsy or postmortem is an after death examination. This is conducted by a forensic pathologist looking for signs of injury (Cooper #). First, firearm examiners examine ammunition components through a microscope to see if they can be pinned to specific weapon (Jackson #). Because of the imperfections of every gun, bullets have a set of marks left imprinted in them that no other gun can produce (Owen #). Another weapon the murderer may have used…

process and to therapeutic feeding represent modern developments. Probably the most instructive of all the food emulsions which might be considered is mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is a unique emulsion which contains the mixture of water and oil. The major component in the mayonnaise is oil which dispersed throughout the lesser amount of continuous aqueous…

banks and financial intermediaries under the microscope by trying to regulate every activity the bank participates in. This issue was highlighted recently as Chairwoman of the Federal Reserve Janet Yellen emphasized that we must not burden…
