Agreement between the United States of America and the Netherlands Since the September 11, 2001 attack on America, the country has viewed law enforcement and private security partnerships as essential in curbing terrorism and terror-related acts (U.S. Department of Justice, 2005). The government acknowledges that the private sector owns and protects about 85% of the nation 's infrastructure. Therefore, law enforcement agencies believe that private security partnerships are essential as they put…

be broken down into four main components. The first component provides general information as to how a specific problem or action leads to water contamination. For example, the first section relates the lack of sewer services to higher levels of nitrates and the presence of E. Coli in the water supply. Another main component to his argument involves presenting a specific example of that contamination. In the case of lacking sewer services he…

Probiotic species Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Our large intestine is an advanced ecosystem, where thousands of bacteria proliferate. these Bateria are helpful in absorption of non digested nutrients from the food example starch, polysaccharides, sugars etc. Bifidobacteria is gram-positive, anaerobic and rod-shaped bacteria, that can be esily found in the large intestines of humans and animals (mammals). Bifidobacterium animalis Is a type of the species, which act as probiotic…

positive unknown led to Listeria Monocytogenes as the only possible candidate. A non spore forming test removed all Bacillus and Clostridium species as a possibility. A positive catalase test removed Lactobacillus species as a possibility. A negative nitrate test removed mycobacterium species as a possibility. And, a positive phenol red arabinose test removed Kurthia species as a possibility. A Blood agar ( Beta hemolysis) test was resulted as negative which left only Listeria Monocytogenes.…

and some cities around it, along with the watershed. As my education progressed I continued to learn that the cloudy waters can be attributed to high nitrate and phosphate levels. Many of these pollutants come from the runoff of fertilizers used in neighborhoods and farms. So now there was a question that needed an answer, “How to eliminate nitrate and phosphate levels from runoff?” I mean it would be more efficient to remove pollution before it reached the water rather. I kept this in mind as…

Everyone was given a Phosphate, Nitrate, or a Dissolved Oxygen test. The average amount of Phosphates in the water was 0.1 parts per million, which is really good. The average amount of Nitrate in the Conodoguinet creek was 0.9 parts per million. The average number of Dissolved Oxygen was 9.8 parts per million. The results for the test are shown below. The numbers…

Ammonia is a compound composed of nitrogen and hydrogen, having the formula NH3. The ammonia molecule is formed by sp3 orbitals as it has a tetrahedral geometry and a trigonal pyramidal shape. Ammonia has an experimentally determined bond angle of 106.7°, and an a bond length of 101.7 pm. The nitrogen atom in the molecule has a lone electron pair, which gives the molecule a dipole moment and polarity. Ammonia’s lone electron pair makes NH3 a base, a proton acceptor, and gives it the ability to…

Introduction The contamination of large bodies of water is becoming a greater problem across the world due to our rapidly increasing population. People commonly pollute these areas with their release of waste products and trash, and these contaminants can spread from small streams or lakes to oceans and complete ecosystems. The pollutants that are released into the water sources are often inorganic substances, and the dissolved forms of these compounds can become ionic cations and anions. An…

placement would be a fantastic opportunity since PepsiCo is a worldwide company and leads research in wide range of areas in the food and drink industry. I am particularly interested in a study which was done by the GSSI in July 2015 on how dietary nitrate enhances total work done in sprints during the intermittent sprint test but also declines cognitive function in reflecting typical work patterns team sports. I would relish the opportunity to put the skills I have learnt from my studies into…

Southern (1975) Article One The article “Detection of specific sequences among DNA fragments separated by gel electrophoresis” (1975) by E.M. Southern focuses on the way that the fragments of DNA can be transferred from agarose based gels to cellulose nitrate filters. Then fragments themselves are hybridized to active RNA. E.M. Southern’s main influences for the investigation were the studies of Smith and Wilcox (1970), and Kelly and Smith (1970), which showed that the restrictive enzyme…
