As we know‚ the TLC is a separation technique that has two phases: the stationary phase and mobile phase. The stationary phase is silica gel (SiO2) which is very polar compound‚ while the mobile phase is 0.5% acetic acid which has less polar. Also‚ as we know‚ the compound will rather to stay with stationary phase or travel with mobile phase depend on its polarity. The result show as that the polarity of the solvent is the key factor for the compound to travel with it or stay in stationary phase

The purpose of this report is to explain the process and steps used to identify a certain microorganism referred to as the unknown. Materials and Methods A test tube with an unknown microorganism will be retrieved. Once the test tube is retrieved‚ a steak for isolation will be completed in order to produce isolated colonies of the organism on an agar plate. The unknown test tube with the bacteria is flame sterilized using a Bunsen burner. Once the bacterium test tube has been flame sterilized

Trimyrisitin to Sodium Myristate to Myrisitic Acid Mandy Boyle Chem 213‚ Section 002 Due Date: December 3‚ 2009 I. Introduction People encounter esters everyday in both natural and synthesized forms. Esters are present in a variety of common compounds‚ from fragrances to animal fat (McMurry‚ 2008). Although these esters can undergo many different important reactions‚ this lab is particularly interested in the hydrolysis of esters into carboxylic acids and alcohols. Companies such as Dove‚ Palmolive

the benefit of climbing beans. And they are easy to harvest! The Organic Farmer A large section of the Kenyan population is unable to afford high protein food with adequate proteins‚ such as meat and eggs. This is where beans play a very important part; they are a cheap source of proteins. Unfortunately‚ the production of beans in most parts of the country is declining. The problem is the lack of good seeds . A survey by The Organic Farmer at the beginning of March this year indicated that most of

herbal when they are used to promote health beyond basic nutrition. The study of drugs from plants includes the subjects of botany‚ chemistry and pharmacology. Botany includes the identification (taxonomy)‚ genetics‚ and cultivation of plants. Chemical characterization includes the isolation‚ identification and quantification of constituents in plant materials. Pharmacology is the study of the biological effects that the chemicals in medicinal plants have on cell cultures‚ animals and humans

Rationale Abstract: This investigatory project was conducted to test the affectivity of organic and synthetic fertilizers when apply on okra plant. It also aims to test whether‚ which is better to use between the two fertilizers. In order to conduct the study we have used okra seeds‚ polyethylene bag and cemetery soil as organic fertilizer‚ synthetic fertilizer‚ and black soil‚ labeled it as setup A (Organic Fertilizer) setup B (Synthetic Fertilizer). Then we observed the changes in the plant for

Organic VS. Non-organic Food‚ Good or Bad? Unfortunately‚ most organic food is disappearing‚ because people are not taking the time to buy it. People are buying non-organic because the food is cheaper‚ easier to find‚ and full of nutrition. But why is organic food disappearing when it has more nutrition‚ better tasting‚ and ecosystem diversity. What are people really doing? People now at days choose to buy non-organic food because it’s cheaper‚ easier to find‚ and full of nutrition. When coming

Ellen Grant Honors Bio I Organic Compounds Problems and Objectives: The purpose of this lab was to select the suitable test for an organic molecule and define the safe process for that test. An organic molecule is normally found in or produced by living systems. (Unknown Author‚ 2014‚ www.biology-online.org/organic_molecule)In this lab one was supposed to infer the results of the test and be able to identify if major biomolecules are present. You were to analyze a variety of tests including
