The word “syndrome” then was replaced by “sequence” because the pathogenesis of the condition occurs through a chain of events. The sequence include small jaw (micrognathia)‚ displacement of the tongue (glossoptosis) which consequence to airway

    TITLE: The Amount of Protein in Chicken Tissues over Cooked Various Periods of Time. ABSTRACT: In this lab‚ we are using a BioRad protein assay dye to determine the concentration of protein in our chicken. The dye binds to the amino acid residues‚ which allow us to find the concentration of protein (BioRad Protein Assay for Tissues). Our hypothesis was the longer chicken is cooked the less protein is available. To test our hypothesis‚ we made samples using our chicken and distilled water to determine

    Question In general‚ which is worse – acid or base conditions? Answers and Discussion Obviously a balance is required. The neutral pH is 7.0‚ however the natural pH of sea water is typically around 8.2 and that of fresh water is typically around 6.5. The answer to the question depends very much on whether or not we are discussing the environment or human health. Human Health: Our skin is slightly acidic (pH 5 to 5.5) and we can withstand low pH values quite readily. If we ingest or touch water which

    DENATURATION OF PROTEINS Abstract The experiment aimed to use the concept of viscosity to study the effects of different denaturants on 1% albumin extract. An Ostwald viscometer was used to measure the flow time of 5 mL of the blank and native protein. These were then denatured by adding 1 mL of denaturant and had their flow time measured. The flow time from the blank to denatured protein is increasing. The specific viscosity and reduced viscosity
