Alpha-Amylase

Homeostasis is a healthy state that is maintained by the constant adjustment of biochemical and physiological pathways in the human body where a human is able to maintain stability, equilibrium and consistency needed to carry out its normal reactions. An example of homeostasis in humans is the maintenance of blood glucose levels which are maintained through the endocrine and nervous systems. Glucose is a monosaccharide sugar and is the only sugar found in the blood as fructose and galactose are absorbed

decrease their absorption 2. Ibubrufen, propranolol, nifedipine and glyburide: hyperglycemia 3. Quinidine, cimetidine and trimethoprim: reduce metformin elimination and increase its serum concentration. 3. Alpha glucosidase inhibitors e.g. Miglitol Mechanism of action They inhibits alpha amylase enzyme that is responsible for carbohydrate digestion and so delay their absorption from the intestine in order to manage diabetes (Nathan, et. al., 2008).

Title Selective and Differential Media, Replica Plating, Rapid Microbiological Systems Andrisha Smith Microbiology 275 Dr.McCann October 20, 2017 Introduction Microbiological media is used to grow microorganisms, select or identify a particular type of microorganism based on aspects of their biochemistry. The two types of medias used in tis lab were selective and differential media. Selective medias are designed to grow some microorganisms and inhibit the growth of others. Most selective growth media

the process of attaching an individual to an EEG monitor is so cumbersome and intrusive the measure itself might induce stress. Kang (2010) conducted experimentation, and found subjects being exposed to high psychological stress had increased alpha amylase in saliva. Preville et al. (2008) also

phenylethyl alcohol to change the membrane permeability of Gram-negative bacteria (13). Growth on the plate indicated a positive result. Lack of growth on the EMB plate also suggested a Gram-positive bacterium. This was because the medium contained a methylene blue dye that hindered the growth of such bacteria (14). The high sodium content of the MSA plate created a high osmotic pressure that inhibited the growth of species that cannot withstand the pressure (15). Thus, observed growth indicated

DISCUSSION Saponin have the ability to generate stable foam because of their amphiphilic nature (Moghimipour et al., 2014),this confirmed Our results which showed that, a stable persistent froth was observed when extract shaken with water. From the results of Fig.(1),thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) of extracted saponin indicated that, sea cucumber, Holothuria thomasi has one type of saponin. our results were in agreement with Amini et al.,(2014) who isolated saponin from Persian Gulf brittle star

Why is it that we tend to remember the thrill of a rollercoaster ride we took at age eight, but fail to remember what we ate for breakfast yesterday morning? Why do we remember falling off our bike and scraping our leg, but not what we got on a fifth grade test? It is safe to say that emotionally significant experiences have a certain salience and are likely remembered more often than not. Differentiating what information we will hold on to and what information we will discard, appears to relate

confronted with an emotionally charged stimulus. Reappraisal is the idea of coming back to an already formed thought about something, to reinterpret an already formed conclusion. Belterzer, Nock, Peters and Jamieson (2014) examined assays for salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) from individuals who had Social Anxiety Disorder by collecting their saliva. They examined saliva at baseline and after an

Introduction: Although the testing of salivary biomarkers has yet to take hold in clinical settings, the research surrounding this science is promising. Ideally, in the future, patients will be able to submit saliva samples to their doctor or dentist to be tested for a variety of conditions which can be detected based on particular proteins or enzymes, et cetera. The hope is that these tests could lead to early disease detection and treatment. In this report, you will find the ways in which saliva
