A murder has been committed and persons of interest have been identified through interviews. Forensic samples from the crime scene been collected and information has been obtained about each person of interest through interviews and other data gathering processes. This case involves the untimely demise of the victim, John Lee, whose body was discovered in the CCA Lab Prep room Monday morning by a professor in preparation for her 9 A.M. class. Forensic samples including fiber evidence and…

It is now evident that an increased serum apo-β concentration is an important coronary heart disease (CHD) risk factor. Even in hypertriglyceridemic models, however, most of the total plasma apo-β is associated with LDL, making apo-β a good surrogate for LDL particle concentration. The larger apo-β carrying particles may be less atherogenic than the smaller LDL particles, suggesting that specific measurement of apo-β might be a better predictor of heart diseases [38]. The protective effect of…

Poliovirus was one of the most deadly viruses in the world. 25 years ago, polio was a disease in 125 countries and paralyzed and killed up to 350,000 people. The body system that is affected most by polio is the central nervous system. The virus Poliovirus Poliovirus enters your body through the mouth, and then eventually makes its way into the blood and central nervous system, where it will affect nerve tissue where it causes paralysis and wasting of muscle tissue. The virus can be prevented…

Halo or Call of Duty Do you like gaming? Do you like playing war/first person shooter games? If so, I am going to give you facts about each game series so you can decide which one you’d like to play the most. First off, Call of Duty has focused aim, extended clip (a perk), perks, you are able to create a class of guns/weapons, you can be a drone also. But Halo has alien, energy swords, over half of…

had several concussions playing college sports. He was recently involved in a car accident in which the airbag deployed and knocked him out. You test his urine and the specific gravity is 1.002. Stat labs reveal a serum sodium (Na+) of 150, and his plasma osmolality is 310 mOsm/kg. a. What hormonal imbalance does this patient have? This male patient has Diabetes Insipidus, (DI), more specifically, Neurogenic (Central) DI. Diabetes Insipidus is “an insufficiency…

There is no clear predetermined linkage between a specific subtype and a unique mode of transmission. Therefore, different subtypes could have been influenced by a combination of different genetic, demographic, economic and social factors that separate the different risk groups for HIV-1. HIV is not an airborne virus and cannot be transmitted through casual contact, kissing, urine or even insect vectors [17]. The transmission is only possible if bodily fluids come in contact with a mucous…

Ammonia is an end-product of deamination of amino acids. In vivo, it is physiologically produced, predominantly in the gastrointestinal tract, myocytes, lymphocytes, and the kidney. Ammonia is neurotoxic if it accumulates but, normally, it is metabolized to urea by hepatocytes, and to glutamine by myocytes and hepatocytes. Urea is excreted by the kidney, but can also diffuse into all tissues and body fluids. In the gastrointestinal tract, bacterial ureases produce ammonia from the urea.…

genetically modified to glow-in-the-dark in similar way. Some GE animals were used in medicine for their blood. Cows used for medicine are genetically modified not for their milk or meat, but for their plasma. The cows are injected with a virus, so that they create a strong immune system. Then the GE cow’s plasma is extracted from their blood to create antibodies, proteins that fight microorganisms that causes diseases, and these antibodies could be used one day to treat Ebola, influenza, Zika,…

covered with the DNA they are hoping to insert into the cell. It works as a type of gene gun. Electroporation takes place when cells exist in a liquid medium that contains the foreign DNA and are shocked by a series of electrical pulses, forcing the plasma membrane to become more permeable and take up the DNA. In heat shock, the method we used in this report,…

Introduction: LC-MS is used for the bioanalysis of small molecules drugs, which has molecular mass of less than 800 Da. Now a days, it is also frequently used for the bioanalytical determination of biopharmaceuticals.1 In pharmaceutical R & D, it takes a year to develop a new marketing drug identified from thousands of new compounds. The drug discovery is divided into early and late phase, during which pharmacokinetics study or bioanalysis of a drug is done. Once, the bioanalysis of a drug is…
