The amount of calcium in physiologic fluids can be determined by a complexometric titration with EDTA. In one such analysis, a 0.100-mL sample of blood serum was made basic by adding 2 drops of NaOH and titrated with 0.001 M EDTA, requiring 0.238 mL to reach the end point. Report the concentration of calcium in the sample as miligrams of Ca per 100 mL. (Ca = 40.078 amu).

Creatinine, C4H7N3O, is a by-product of muscle metabolism, and creatinine levels in the body are known to be a fairly reliable indicator of kidney function. The normal level of creatinine in the blood for adults is approximately 1.0 mg per deciliter (dL) of blood. If the density of blood is 1.025 g/mL, calculate the molarity of a normal creatinine level in a 10.0 mL blood sample.

In the experiment performed for the determination of cholesterol, the function of the calibration curve obtained using 25-400mg/dL standard cholesterol solutions was determined as y= 0.0009x. If the amount of cholesterol in the serum sample is determined as 3.11 g/L, what is the absorbance value of the sample? A. 0,280 B. 0.028 C. 0.208 D. 0.82
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
Iodine-131 is commonly used for the treatment of Graves' disease, which is a disease of the thyroid gland. The number of 131I used depends on the size of the patient's thyroid gland. If the dosage for 131I is 86 microcuries per gram of the thyroid gland, and assuming all the iodine given will accumulate in the thyroid gland, then: a. What activity dose of 131I should be given to a patient who has a thyroid gland weighing 15 grams?b. What is the value of the decay rate constant I-131 if the half-life = 8.07 days?c. How many grams of 131I to give?d. How many grams of 131I are left in the patient after 1 month?
In the experiment performed for the determination of cholesterol, the function of the calibration curve obtained using 25-400mg/dL standard cholesterol solutions was determined as y= 0.0009x. If the absorbance of the serum sample is determined as 0.28, what is the amount of cholesterol in the sample, in mg/L?
A cholesterol screening has reported Toms blood serum contains 50mg/dal HDL and 180 mg/dal LDL and a total cholesterol of 255. Are these values in the normal range?

Systemic blood pressure is expressed as the ratio of the systolic pressure (when the heart first ejects blood into the arteries) to the diastolic pressure (when the heart is relaxed). Normal systemic blood pressure is 12080. What is the maximum force (in newtons) that the blood exerts against each square centimeter of the heart for a person with normal blood pressure?
If a commercially available insulin preparation contains 1 ppm of proinsulin, how many micrograms of proinsulin would be contained in a 10-mL vial of insulin?
The normal concentration of Ca2+ in blood is 5.0 mEq>L. How many milligrams of Ca2+ are in 1.00 L of blood?
The normal range of the sodium electrolyte in the body is 134 to 145 mEq/L. The term mEq is dependent on the charge of the ion. Since sodium is a +1 ion, 134 mEq/L is the same as 134 mmol/L. An ion that has a greater positive or negative charge; however, will have 1 mEq for each positive or negative charge of the ion for every 1 mmol. For example, for Ca+2, 2mEq/1mmol. If the standard range of Magnesium in the body is 0.70 to 0.95 mmol/L, convert this value into mEq/L for the Mg2+ ion. (Use dimensional analysis to figure this out)
