Sugar Metabolism Title: The effectiveness of glucose and fructose metabolism in individuals of resting and exercising observed through blood glucose concentration. Aim: To study the mechanisms of the body involved in absorbing and metabolizing sugar in the form of glucose and fructose and examine the effect of exercise on the rate of removal of glucose from the bloodstream. Introduction: The blood glucose concentration in the blood is interceded by the human body via negative feedback mechanism

Blood bank Although there are any complicated instruments in the blood bank department‚ but it’s a very important and sensitive section of the medical laboratory as it deals with donors and acceptors of the blood‚ it transfer for leukemia and thalasemia patients‚ new born and cancer patients and so many cases blood bank save their lives. Tests that are carried in this department: 1- Some tests‚ which included donated free of diseases‚ serology tests 2- blood grouping 3- rhesus factor"Rh"

The test that were conducted on J.T. were a laboratory blood test‚ pulse oximetry test‚ an arterial blood gas analysis‚ a pulmonary function test‚ and a chest x-ray. The laboratory blood test may not directly tell if a person has COPD but they are important to note the possible causes of one’s symptoms and are useful for ruling out other disorders. A laboratory blood test also includes an arterial blood gas analysis which is useful to determine if one’s lungs are working properly and begs to answer

Glucose Oxidase and Its Various Uses Aaron Truong Since glucose oxidase has an end product called hydrogen peroxide‚ which is a harmful substance to bacteria‚ it can be used to fight bacteria‚ or sterilize objects (can have various uses such as in hand sanitizers‚ toothpaste‚ soap‚ etc)‚ not just biosensors. Another key part in the reaction would be C6H12O6‚ or glucose. Glucose oxidase can be applied to diabetics as mentioned earlier‚ as biosensors work by "keeping track of the

on my Hypothesis. 3. Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the results compare with your prediction? The glucose diffused through the 200 MCWO membrane while the albumin didnt. 4. Put the following in order from smallest to largest molecular weight: glucose‚ sodium chloride‚ albumin‚ and urea.

Cost Object:In a clinical laboratory in a small community hospital we currently refer specimens for free PSA (prostatic specific antigen) to a large commercial laboratory. A prominent physician on staff has requested that us to start doing the test in-house to improve turnaround time. To do this‚ we would need to offer a total PSA and a free PSA together. We currently perform the total PSA in-house. The physician states that if he can have timely results for the paired test‚ he estimates that it will

complex carbohydrates include vegetables‚ whole grains‚ peas‚ pasta‚ potatoes and beans. Carbohydrates are the main source of glucose‚ which is a major fuel for all of the body’s cells and the only source of energy for the brain and red cells. Except for fiber‚ which cannot be digested‚ both simple and complex carbohydrates are converted into glucose. The glucose is then either used directly to provide energy for the body‚ or stored in the liver for future use. When a person consumes more
