Urinalysis is mostly a labor process used to observe urine at a microscopic level (Ben-Ezra, 1998). In the urinalysis, one of the experiments conducted was observing the physical characteristics of the urine sample. The physical characteristics included the color, transparency, odor, and pH level. Observing and determining the color, transparency, odor, and pH of urine can tell the person’s diet and possibly if there might be a bodily issue going on (Gutierrez, 2014). For the first physical…

Aromatic plants bear essential oils which are fragrant and so are named ‘Aromatic’. These plants retain their fragrant components in specialised cells and tissues of organs even after drying. Oil may be present in external glands as epidermal cells or their modification such as ‘Secretory Hair’ or may be present internally throughout the plant forming Schizogenous formation which on dissolution of surrounding cells forms Schizolysogenous gland which further grow into long canals. Secretion such…

cations. If the experiment were to be repeated, step 13 could be ommitted as barium was already confirmed in step 12 with the formation of yellow percipitate barium chromate, and calcium was not confirmed with step 14 when a white percipitate calcium oxalate was not present One of four different solutions were distributed to the students in which two unknown cations in a specific solution were to be…

Kidney stones What are kidney stones? Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) are salts or crystals that precipitate in the urinary tract. These stones are typically made up of elements such as calcium (most common), uric acid, magnesium ammonium phosphate, or cysteine. The urinary tract begins with the kidneys, which empty urine into the ureters, which then drain urine into the bladder and finally the urethra. Stones can be located anywhere along the urinary system from the kidneys to the bladder.…

future. The research-based knowledge bowl of UpToDate, one of my most reliable information sites medically, states that: “from the viewpoint of diet, increasing the intake of fluid, dietary calcium, potassium and phytate and decreasing the intake of oxalate, animal protein, sucrose, fructose, sodium, supplemental calcium and supplemental vitamin C may be beneficial”. Some of these issues need a little more description or…

Is Green actually Good Can you imagine listening and watching to all those ads about huge, delicious, juicy, mouthwatering burgers, and not being able to eat it, or even think about eating it? It would be horrible, not only is meat delicious, but without it, it can lead to malnutrition. Vegetarianism is dangerous! Meat gives us many of our daily vitamins, iron, minerals, and fats, without them, the human body will not function properly. Vegetarianism is not helping you or your body! Many…

Overall the experiment provided significant data, despite problems with reagent contamination. Iron (III)-thiocyanate complexes in equilibrium, meaning that external and internal forces on the equilibrium can shift toward the reactants or the complex. External forces are changes to the chemical or physical environment that effect the equilibrium. Internal forces are changes to the bonds or chemical nature of the complex itself. These effects are used to study the optimal chromogenic reagent,…

aggregates compounds preferentially localized in the bladder. These crystals, formed when the urine is saturated with minerals, can be an obstacle and prevent the cat or dog from urinating. Urinary calculi are distinguished from: - struvite - calcium oxalate - ammonium urate (which accounts for 90% of stones in Dalmatians) - cystine What are the symptoms of urinary calculi? This is a urinary…

Glow sticks have many uses to them and many people use them in a number of situations as well. One important aspect of glow sticks is that they are water proof, so if you ever go scuba diving or just want something to light up in your pool then glow sticks are perfect for that. Another feature of them is that they do not require any batteries at all so they are very simple to use, and one final thing that is interesting about glow sticks is they generate an insignificant, or small, amount of…

them to glow for a while. Each has a small glass container which is covered by the plastic tube. The stick is activated when it is bent or cracked this process is called chemiluminescence. When the tube is cracked hydrogen peroxide solution, phenyl oxalate ester and the…
