Bio Cement The project aims at attaining high durability of concrete and gaining high strength of cement. We plan to make use of bacterial species which can hydrolyze the enzyme Urease efficiently to produce microbial concrete. Such bacterial are known to produce calcium which is useful in giving strength to cement. We are working in 2 stages. Stage 1: Here we check the effect of bacterial solution on cement mortar and along with that we check the effectiveness of the bacterial solution

known as germ warfare — is the deliberate use of disease-causing biological agents such as bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi‚ or biological toxins‚ to kill or incapacitate humans‚ animals or plants as an act of war. Biological weapons (often termed "bio-weapons" or "bio-agents") are living organisms or replicating entities (viruses) that reproduce or replicate within their host victims. Entomological (insect) warfare is also considered a type of BW. Biological weapons may be employed in various ways to

Gustavo Carro BIO-105 Human vertebral column In human anatomy‚ the vertebral column is a column usually consisting of 24 articulating vertebrae and 9 fused vertebrae in the sacrum and the coccyx. It is situated in the dorsal aspect of the torso‚ separated by intervertebral discs. It houses and protects the spinal cord in its spinal canal. There are normally thirty-three (33) vertebrae in humans‚ including the five that are fused to form the sacrum (the others are separated by intervertebral

AP Bio Essay #1 To address this problem created by the lab tech‚ I would set up an experiment like the one we did in AP biology to identify the molarity of the unknown sucrose solutions. First I would pour an equal volume of each solution into beakers labeled A‚ B‚ C‚ and D. I would also have a beaker of the same amount of distilled water to serve as a control for the experiment. Then I would obtain several baby carrots‚ 4 per beaker. I would mass the groups of 4 potatoes before placing them

Bio Pharma Case Analysis Question 1 How should BioPharma have used its production network in 2009? Should any of the plants have been idled? What is the annual cost of your proposal‚ including import duties? As Landgraf’s objective is to design a more cost-effective network (cost minimization problem subject to various capacity constraints)‚ the following production network in 2009 should have been used by BioPharma: *All numbers below are in millions *Total Transportation Cost=SUMPRODUCT

Bio Diversity: A Major Concern of Our Eco System The variety of life on Earth‚ its biological diversity is commonly referred to as biodiversity. The number of species of plants‚ animals‚ and microorganisms‚ the enormous diversity of genes in these species‚ the different ecosystems on the planet‚ such as deserts‚ rainforests and coral reefs are all part of a biologically diverse Earth. Appropriate conservation and sustainable development strategies attempt to recognize this as being integral to any

Daphny Maldonado Bio Lab 2107 Kiah Britton W 10-12:30 Is H20 Bad for You? Abstract: In the village of Gopher Hollow there’s a cluster of Blue Baby Syndrome. There were four infants affected by this cluster. The families from the infants would collect their water from wells. We have to determine what’s the source of the high levels of nitrites in the water. The four sources that could be the point of contamination are a new subdivision‚ textile plant‚ an organic farm‚ and a mountain lake

Bio 104-03 Lab #3- Acids Bases‚ and Buffers 1. An acid is a substance that releases hydrogen ions as they desolve in water and ranks lower than seven on the pH scale. An example of an acidic substance is lemon juice. A base is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions and ranks higher than seven on the pH scale. An example of a base substance is hand soap. A neutral substance ranks a seven on the pH scale and has equal concentrations of H+ and OH-. An example of this is pure water. Electrolytes
