A typical human body contains between 9 and 12 pints of blood. A woman's body contains 11.57 pints of blood and the density of hemoglobin in her blood is 13.5 g/dL. What is the mass in grams of hemoglobin that would be found in 11.57 pints of her blood?
Predict the diffusivity of human serum albumin at 293 K in water as a dilute solution and compare it with experimental data. Assume the following: The molecular weight of human serum albumin, MA= 72,300 kg/kmol The viscosity of water at 293 K is 0.897 x 10-3 Pa∙s The experimental data value is 5.93 x 10-11 m2/s.
The molecular weight of ethanol (CH3CH2OH) is46 and its density is 0.789 g/cm3.A. What is the molarity of ethanol in beer that is 5%ethanol by volume? [Alcohol content of beer varies fromabout 4% (lite beer) to 8% (stout beer).]B. The legal limit for a driver’s blood alcohol contentvaries, but 80 mg of ethanol per 100 mL of blood (usuallyreferred to as a blood alcohol level of 0.08) is typical. Whatis the molarity of ethanol in a person at this legal limit?C. How many 12-oz (355-mL) bottles of 5% beer coulda 70-kg person drink and remain under the legal limit? A70-kg person contains about 40 liters of water. Ignore themetabolism of ethanol, and assume that the water contentof the person remains constant.
Hemoglobin is 6.0% heme (C₃₄H₃₂FeN₄O₄) by mass. Toremove the heme, hemoglobin is treated with acetic acid andNaCl to form hemin (C₃₄H₃₂N₄O₄FeCl). At a crime scene, ablood sample contains 0.65 g of hemoglobin. (a) How manygrams of heme are in the sample? (b) How many moles of heme?(c) How many grams of Fe? (d) How many grams of hemincould be formed for a forensic chemist to measure?
Carbon dioxide is dissolved in blood (pH 7.4) to form a mixture of carbonicacid and bicarbonate. Neglecting free CO2, what fraction will be present as carbonic acid? Would you expect a significant amount of carbonate (CO32-)?
Normal Hgb is referred to as HbA and contains 4 subunits, 2 α-globin chains and 2 β-globin chains, arranged as two dimers of αβ. In Sickle Cell Disease, both β-globin chains are altered in the dimers (αβS/αβS). Q3: Which level of structure does the αβ/αβ and αβS/αβS in HbA and HbS describe?
Hemoglobin has a molecular weight 16,000 Daltons. convert hemoglobin concentration from 13 g/dL to millimoles per liter.
Given the equation of the line, y=150x-8.1221 (cells per mL is in 10^8), what is the CFU per mL of the original suspension if the thousand-fold dilution of that suspension has an absorbance of 0.3 at 600nm? * A. 3.7 x 10^12 B. 3.7 x 10^9 C. 3.7 x 10^1 D. None of these is correct
The normal concentration of Ca2+ in blood is 5.0 mEq>L. How many milligrams of Ca2+ are in 1.00 L of blood?
You are given a 27 % (w/v) solution of psicose. Molar mass: psicose (C6H12O6) = 180.156 g/mol. ou have a 0.75 mg/mL solution of bovine serum albumin (BSA). You add 1 mL of the 0.75 mg/mL BSA solution into a standard cuvette (1 cm path length), set your spectrophotometer to 280 nm and read the absorbance of this BSA solution. Molecular mass of bovine serum albumin = 66.4 kDa. Molar extinction coefficient (e) of BSA = 43824 M-1 cm-1 (at 280 nm). What absorbance reading will you obtain?
A team of biochemists uses genetic engineering to modify the interface region between hemoglobin subunits. The resulting hemoglobin variants exist in solution primarily as αβ dimers (few, if any, α2β2 tetramers form). Are these variants likely to bind oxygen more weakly or more tightly? Explain your answer.
The primary structure of mammalian hemoglobin, an a202 tetramer, is approximately. O 2% 18% Ο 50% Ο 78% 0 986 identical to myoglobin
