1. I successfully completed N-glycan, site specific-glycopeptides, and SEC (size-exclusion chromatography) analysis on several big batches of M710 RPP and process development samples in a timely manner. I am very dedicated to the tests I performed. The process of each analysis is complicated and often requires several days of lab-intensive work, and it is common to receive multiple tests at the same time. In order to meet the tight timeline, I rationally prioritize my tests, and plan my time to…
Synthetic fabrics are textiles that are man-made, chemically produced rather than natural. Polyester, acrylic and nylon are some examples. Synthetic fibres are made by joining monomers, molecules that can bond to form long chains, into polymers, through a process called polymerization. Kevlar has various properties that allow it to be applicable in an array of fields requiring hard, resistant, durable materials, be it canoe racing…
The lab we conducted involved a process called the Maillard Reaction. When it comes to cooking meats, heating the food causes the proteins, especially those nearest the surface of the meat, to denature. These denatured proteins become more chemically reactive to other molecules in their environment. One of the primary reactions that occur when browning meats and many other foods is called the Maillard Reaction. The Maillard Reaction is a non-enzymatic chemical reaction between amino acids and…
aerobic respiration at the start of glycolysis. Disaccharides are primarily hydrolysed into monomers, and then each monosaccharide enters the pathway as a reactant for one of the reactions during the time of glycolysis. The complex carbohydrates that supply energy in living organisms are glucose polymers: starch in plants and glycogen in animals. These polymers are hydrolysed to release individual glucose monomers for entrance into glycolysis. The majority of plants and animals hydrolyse…
New ultraviolet (UV) curable prepolymer, 2–hydroxy–3–[p–(1–{2–hydroxy–3–(isopro– phenylcarbonyloxypropoxy) phenyl} methylcyclohexyl) phenoxy] propyl acrylate (BISCHDA) was synthesized by the reaction of p–[1–(p–hydroxyphenyl) methylcyclohexyl] phenol with methylcyclohexanone, epoxidation with epichlorohydrin followed by addition reaction with acrylic acid. All synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. Several UV-curable formulated solutions were prepared…
each monomer is connected to at most two other monomers). Their sequence encodes information. The sequence of one biopolymer is used as a template for the construction of another biopolymer with a sequence that is totally dependent on the original biopolymer's…
decreasing pH, as carboxylate groups in the alginate backbone become protonated, form hydrogen bonds and reach a maximum around pH = 3–3.5 [3]. Another factor that affects the viscosity ist the length of the alginate molecule, or the number of the monomer units in the chains (MW), the longer chains have higher…
difference is the Cl molecule that has caused the stiffness in the chloroethane. This is due to bond between carbon and chlorine which is more polar bonds than the carbon and haydron bonds.Therefore there are more polar attractiopn between strands of monomers. The carbonyl group, C=O, occurs in two homologous series, namely aldehydes and ketones. What is thestructural difference between an aldehyde and a ketone? (A.C. 3.1) Aldehydes are known as the organic molecules that has a carbonyl group…
immense consequence for both organizations. Lewicki chronicled this case in Lewicki, Saunders, and Barry (2010, pp. 582-609). Two multinational industrial giants, these companies had much to gain through a contract for the sale of vinyl chloride monomer from the Pacific Oil Company (or simply Pacific) to the Reliant Corporation (or simply Reliant). When representatives from the companies went to renegotiate the contract in 1984, a series of arduous deliberations started that would last for two…
passed from a parent cell to its offspring. This branch of biology is know as genetics. DNA also possesses a unique structure that allows it to perform all these actions. DNA is composed of hydrogen ,carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphorus. The monomers that make up nucleic acids are called nucleotides. Nucleotides consists of "a five carbon sugar molecule bonded to a nitrogenous base and a…
