confirm diagnosis; however‚ an elevated serum amylase is the primary diagnostic marker for acute pancreatitis (Huether & McCance‚ 2012). Furthermore‚ the activation of these enzymes causes the self-digestion of both pancreatic cells and tissues‚ causing the pancreas to become inflamed. If this self-digestion of the pancreas progresses‚ it can cause vascular damage‚ coagulation‚ and fat necrosis (Huether & McCance‚

hydrogen cation and a hydroxide anion (which once formed water) break apart and attach themselves to the ends of shorter polymers. Hydrolysis plays an important role in our lives and in the lives of every living thing on earth. Living organisms rely on digestion (hydrolysis) to convert food energy from polymers into monomers‚ which are easier for our cells to absorb. This study was conducted to show how polysaccharides are broken down by organisms to absorb nutrients through hydrolysis. We used different

How can digestion rates give information to forensic scientists about the time of death? When someone dies‚ digestion in the body stops. The forensic pathologists can see how far the food has traveled in the digestion system to get a time of death. 4. What is mummification? Mummification is a drying of the body and its tissues. 5.

Title: Cloning of Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 in forward orientation into Escherichia Coli using histidine-tagged pbluescript II KS+. Abstract Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 locus is intensely over expressed in breast and prostate cancer and it’s been established that its promoter inhibition by p53 has led to reduced cell proliferation and invasion (Bracken‚ 2003; Xiao‚ 2011). Objective is to clone a forward orientated EZH2 insert into a his-tagged pbluescript. Cloning EZH2 into a histidine-tagged

beginning to end. Where does the food go? As food enters the mouth‚ both mechanical and chemical digestion begins. First the food is physically broken down by the mechanical process of mastication (chewing)‚ into smaller particles‚ creating a bolus with the tongue against the soft plate. During this phase‚ the salivary glands mix the food with salivary amylase beginning the chemical digestion of starches. The bolus then enters the pharynx (throat) first then is routed to the esophagus. These
