Phosphorus

On a daily basis, I use an excessive amount of water. I am guilty of taking this resource for granted by taking long showers, not using a stopper while washing dishes, thus leaving the hot water running for far too long, and washing less than a full load of clothing on multiple occasions. Rather than wasting all of the water that I use in the shower and while cleaning dishes in the sink, I could have been reusing it as greywater. Greywater is household wastewater that can be reused to clean…

or prevent hypophosphatemia. Potassium phosphate is an injection supplement used as a preventative in order to remedy low phosphorus in the blood. Overview Potassium phosphate is an intravenous injection used to prevent or treat hypophosphatemia, low phosphorus in the blood, through the use of a concentrated solution mixture of monobasic and dibasic potassium. Phosphorus occurs naturally in every cell in the body and is used for repair and growth of cells and tissues. As an organic and…

The phosphate ion is a polyatomic ion with the empirical formula PO43− and a molar mass of 94.973 g/mol; it consists of one central phosphorus atom surrounded by four identical oxygen atoms in a tetrahedral arrangement (phosphate). It is a hypervalent molecule (the phosphorus atom has 10 electrons in its valence shell) (Phosphate). A phosphate salt forms when a positively charged ion attaches to the negatively charged oxygen atoms of the ion, forming…

CKD-MBD Chronic kidney disease can reck havoc on the bones. When the kidneys fail to regulate the balance of phosphorus, calcium, and vitamin D or when hypooclaemia dn hyperphopahtemia persist, parathyroid hormone will increase to compensate. Although the body is adaptable it will eventually fall behind. According to Ruf & Clifford (2010), "The cornerstone of management of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder is to maintain normal bone turnover by maintaining adequate PTH and vitamin D…

then Fe at 500 ppm (0.16 & 0.17 %). While, the significant reduction came by the high Fe level 2000 ppm (0.10 & 0.11%) respectively in both seasons, our results were agreement with (Malvi, 2011) mentioned that there were antagonism between iron and phosphorus especially in the high levels. Leaf K content: Leaves potassium concentration gradually increased by increasing iron levels. Fe at 2000 ppm recorded the highest significant increment of K content (2.41 & 2.56 %), Fe at 1000 ppm came next…

Chronic Kidney Disease is caused when the kidneys stop function effectively (UWHealth, 2016). Once the kidneys begin to deteriorate blood phosphorus starts to increase, bones may start to weaken, appetite will start to deteriorate along with lack of energy and slowed growth (National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disease, 2016). A good nutrition is important for a child with…

understand they causing water pollution and eventually gives impacts on human health, it is low succession and possibility to prevent water quality. Also, releasing nitrogen and phosphorus is still non point source water pollution. There is many industry and runoff from house and stores that can release nitrogen and phosphorus too. Hence, this is not feasible enough to prevent agriculture…

that the fertilised plant will grow more then the plants that were water. The fertilied plants will grow more because the fertiliser has element that the water cant give the plants that make it grow. The elements that fertiliser has is nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. This is why the fertilised plants grew so much.The experminent was used to investigate the difference between the growth of Tomato plants with fertiliser and with water. It aimed to test to see if one liquid made the Tomato…

of Water and Atmospheric Research Ltd (NIWA), provided the data for both the Nitrogen and the Phosphorus concentrations throughout New Zealand. The development of CLUES was through a consolidation of existing mapping procedures and modelling(EnviroLink, 2012), and contributed to by various research organisations (NIWA, 2016). From this collaboration, the models responsible for the Nitrogen and Phosphorus concentrations are: OVERSEER®; the Soil Plant Atmosphere System Model (SPASMO); and Spatial…

D-binding protein (DBP). The primary function of vitamin D is to maintain calcium and phosphorus homeostasis through three different mechanisms. One of these mechanisms involves increasing intestinal calcium absorption. The homeostatic state is also achieved by moving calcium and phosphorus from a skeletal body part to the blood in order to ensure an optimal blood level. Finally, decreasing renal calcium and phosphorus excretion is also crucial to reach a homeostatic balance of the body. Other…
