Question
Chapter 9, Problem 43TQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The reason behind the reaction catalyzed by aconitase not going as planned when an animal ingests the plant toxin, fluoroacetate.
Introduction:
The Kreb cycle or the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) cycle occurs in a cell organelle called the mitochondrion. The main purpose of the TCA cycle is to produce the energy carriers NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and FADH2 (flavin adenine dinucleotide) that are used during ATP (adenosine triphosphate) synthesis.

Question 4.
Diabetes mellitus possesses a serious health challenge worldwide and there has been an
increased awareness for self-monitoring and point of care testing. The development of self-
monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) is probably the most important advance in controlling
diabetes since the discovery of insulin.
a) Dextrostix, the first glucose meter was invented by Ernie Adams. Briefly discuss.
b) There are three principles of enzymatic reactions, utilized by current glucose meters.
Compare and briefly discuss these three principles.
