Epoxidation Reactions Lab Report 2 Abstract An oxygen atom is transferred from a peroxy acid to the carbon=carbon double bond thus forming an epoxide. Scheme 1. Oxone Epoxidation. Scheme 2. mCPBA Epoxidation. The percent yield for the Oxone epoxidation reaction was 65% yield and the mCPBA epoxidation reaction was 70% yield. Oxone is the greener alternative because using mCPBA is twice as expensive as Oxone and leaves behind the epoxide plus m-chlorobenzoic acid while Oxone creates non-toxic

Microbiology Laboratory Report Identification of Unknown Bacteria 03/10/05- 04/01/05 Authors: Richard Hendricks‚ Jessica Prebish; NMU Abstract: Broth culture 16 was randomly selected by our group and subjected to qualitative tests for taxonomic identification. The culture did appear homogenous throughout the testing period and is currently retained by Northern Michigan University’s department of Microbiology. We suggest that culture 16 is an example of Escherichia coli. Background: Techniques

cheese. Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)‚ a bacteria that can be found in the production of cheese‚ its stress gene was investigated in the experiment by using various biochemical and genetic techniques to identify and extract. The characterisation of the strain illustrates how identification of strains differ using different methods‚ such as gram stain and 16s rRNA screening. After the characterisation‚ the stress gene isolation assist the further understanding of the gene on LAB be giving different stress

ACID BASE TITRATION OBJECTIVES 1. To demonstrate the basic laboratory technique of titration 2. To learn to calculate molarity based on titrations INTRODUCTION Molarity (M) or molar concentration is a common unit for expressing the concentration of solutions. It is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution (or millimoles of solute per milliliter of solution). The concentration of a basic solution can be determined by titrating it with a volume of a standard acid solution (of

Fisher-Price Toys‚ Inc. Fisher-Price‚ a toy company that was founded in 1930‚ was known for its durable‚ safe‚ high-quality‚ and fun products sold at low to moderate prices‚ and had established itself as a leading producer of toys over the years. In fact‚ 82.7% of participants in a Redbook study named Fisher-Price the brand of pre-school toys that they buy the most often. In the summer of 1970‚ marketing vice president Jack Asthalter found himself confronted with a difficult decision: whether to

Water is allowed to enter from the hydraulic bench into the flow measuring apparatus through the venturi meter which consists of a gradually converging section‚ a throat and a gradually diverging section. The flow continues through the orifice plate meter for some distance after experiencing a change in cross-section and a rapidly diverging section. After that the flow continues into a further settling length and a 90o bend and finally reaches the rotameter. The rotameter consist of a transparent

Lab Report 7: Analysis of Cereal Introduction: The objective of this lab was to consult for the FDA regarding a recently surfaced scandal involving false reporting of iron content in cereal as well as iron tablets. The makers of the cereal and the iron tablets‚ respectively‚ were allegedly reporting higher amounts of iron in their products than actually existed‚ as a way to save money but continue to provide products with “adequate” amounts of iron. The FDA needed consulting in order to analyze
