Hypothesis: To investigate the effect of different concentrations of ethanol on the permeability of beetroot cell membranes.

Have you ever wanted to see a science experiment in real life that has a reaction. Well that's what my science experiment is about. My experiment is called elephant toothpaste.

In the story Candide, Voltaire utilizes the encounters of the character Candide and exchange between characters to question the hypothesis by different rationalists that "Everything is for the best in this most ideal of all universes" (Voltaire). Voltaire trusted that the general public that he lived in had many blemishes, imperfections which are represented all through the story. Voltaire utilizes parody to focus on the military, religion, and social orders' accentuation of physical excellence, to outline that we don't live in the most ideal of all universes. Voltaire's parody goes past individuals and their general public, be that as it may, to look at the whole world in which they get themselves. My interpretation of the ending of the novel makes the point that misfortune is not unique, but is in fact a common feature of human life.

Typically, wealth is an idea that most people view the same way, but in Voltaire’s El Dorado there is a different view of wealth being expressed that suggests peace in society, rather than the corruption for the desire of money. Voltaire criticizes wealth in “Candide”, by showing that El Dorado is paradise and the perfect society because there is no form of wealth and outside of El Dorado there is lying, cheating, and stealing being committed to gain more riches and valuables, which shows that the normal society in the world is corrupt compared to Voltaire’s image of paradise, El Dorado. The different ways that Voltaire criticizes wealth in “Candide” are how money corrupts people through lying, cheating, or stealing, how money is used to bribe other people in the story to do things that are unjust for society, and how Candide is happier being a poor man than a wealthy one. Voltaire’s El Dorado is peaceful and non-violent, while outside of the society, some people are corrupted by the idea of wealth.

Receiving a Candida injection for warts is effective for growths that haven’t responded to other treatments. It involves injecting an extract of the dead fungus directly into the core of the wart.

Beetles bred on mung beans exhibited a mean relative inhibition of 35.32% with a sample standard deviation of 26.41%. Beetles bred on black-eyed peas exhibited a mean relative inhibition of 35.42% with a sample standard deviation of 17.97%. This data is reflected in the bar graph in Figure 1 below. The large bars show the respective means and the error bars show a range of one standard deviation about the mean.

The effects of erythromycin, tetracycline and ibuprofen were tested on synethchocystis and lemna minor. There were different amounts of each chemical used on the duckweed to see which would have effect and how much could affect the duckweed. The results showed that even ug concentration have an effect on the aquatic plants. The exposure of these chemicals resulted in production of stress hormone. The different chemicals had different effects.

Manuka honey is effective against certain biofilms but its effect on polymicrobial biofilms requires further research. Low sugar concentrations support microbial growth therefore it was found that high

The methodology involved using the plant’s flower bud by washing it in sterile water, dried, and crushed into a powder. Eventually it was converted into an ethanol and methanol extract and observed for any effects on MRSA strains (Yadav et al., 2011). The results showed that both extracts had inhibitory effects on various MRSA strains and could have the potential for use as an antibacterial agent for multidrug resistant strains (Yadav et al., 2011). In some ways the study suggests that cloves can play a role in treating bacterial infections, but it is possible that converting it into an ethanol or methanol extract might have improved its effectiveness on MRSA strains. Using clove capsules to cleanse the body of microorganisms may or may not be as effective since the concentration of cloves per dose is different from the effectiveness of an ethanol or methanol extract used as an antibacterial

elegans was modified [76]. Freshly grown C. albicans of the indicated genotype were picked from a single colony and used to inoculate 1 mL of YPD broth, which was allowed to grow overnight with agitation at 30˚C. The following day, 10 mL of yeast were spread into a square lawn in a 4 cm tissue culture plate (BD) containing 4 mL of BHI agar and kanamycin (45 mg/mL). For experiments that compared heat-killed and live C. albicans, cells were subjected to the exact same preparatory conditions. A single colony of yeast was grown in 1 mL BHI at 30uC overnight and then inoculated into 50 mL YPD. After approximately 20 hours of incubation, cells were split into two aliquots, collected by centrifugation and washed twice with sterile PBS (pH 7.4). One aliquot was resuspended in 1 mL PBS, exposed to 75uC for 60 minutes and washed again with sterile PBS. The other aliquot was processed in parallel with the heat-killed sample. Cells were suspended in 25 mL PBS, incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes and washed again with sterile PBS. 10 mL of this sample were added to the killing assay plates containing 4 mL of BHI agar and kanamycin (45 mg/mL). The plates were then incubated for approximately 20 hours at 30˚C. These pathogenesis assay plates are then used to give infection to C. elegans at young adult stage for four

Moreover, the p-value of the ANOVA results was well below 0.05 at p < 0.000001, revealing that the experiment’s results were significant, and a post hoc test of pairwise comparisons determined which yeast strain levels are significantly different from one another. The yeast strains levels of N50 and N25 were significantly

Biopesticides – Several microbes (viruses, bacteria and fungi) are being developed as suitable biopestecides for management of insect and nematodal pests. Some fungi have good potential of their use as bionematicides to control nema-todal pests of vegetables, fruit and cereal crops. Some bacterial and fungal products are also use to control disease of roots and shoots of plants.

Candida albicans is a dimorphic fungus. This means that that C. albicans has to different phenotypic forms, an oval shaped yeast form and a branching hyphal form. C. albicans normal habitat is the mucosal membranes of humans and various other mammals including the mouth, gut, vagina, and sometimes the skin. Normally C. albicans causes no damage and lives symbiotically with the human or animal host, even helping to breakdown minute amounts of fiber that are eaten in the host’s diet. The normal bacterial flora of the gut, mouth, and vaginal mucosa act as a barrier to the over growth of fungal infections like C. albicans. Loss of this normal flora is one of the main predisposing factors to an infection by C. albicans.
