    Advantages of UPLC: UPLC is more sensitive and selective with rapid resolving power and high-resolution performance. It decreases process cycle time and persuade quality of end-product with reduced run time and decreased cost of operation. Through the use of a novel column material of very small particle size, it provides quick analysis and increases sensitivity. It reduces the solvent consumption and raises sample throughput and also supports real-time analysis in step with manufacturing processes

    20 volumes of oxygen. A 20 "volume" concentration of hydrogen peroxide is equivalent to 1.67 mol/dm3 (Molar solution) or about 6%.Hydrogen peroxide available at drug stores is three percent solution. In such small concentrations, it is less stable, and decomposes faster. It is usually stabilized with acetanilide, a substance which has toxic side effects in significant amounts. Buffer solution is used in this experiment as to keep the pH at a

    our null hypothesis is as follows: there is not a difference in protein adsorption between uncoated and coated nylon model sutures when exposed to a fibrinogen solution. Our alternative hypothesis (Ha) is as follows: there is a difference in protein adsorption between uncoated and coated nylon model sutures when exposed to fibrinogen solution at a 0.05 assurance level (α = 0.05). Background: When designing new state-of-the-art biomedical devices, the reaction between the biomaterials placed

    Laboratory 7: Environmental Effects on Enzyme Activity BI-185-03 BY Charlie Kane 10/24/17 Abstract During this experiment we tested the effects that specific environmental conditions have on the enzyme, peroxidase. Through this experiment we developed an understanding of enzymes and their functions. By exposing the enzymes to different environments, we observed a changed in their activity. In order for us to measure these changes we used the technique of spectrophotometry, meaning we used

    applied everywhere and every day. In some cases chemistry can pertain to acids and bases. These components are very useful when it comes to trying to figure out reac-tion stoichiometry, ionization constants, RICE tables, making buffer solutions, and stabilizing pH solutions. Acid equations include HA as the acid and H2O as the base. One example of an acid reacting with a base can be seen in Equation 1. Equation 1. HA(aq) + H2O(l)  H3O+(aq) + A-(aq) The Bronsted-Lowry theory connects acids as

    Overview: Citrate and its various salts have been researched extensively and found to be used in most commercial settings, such as a local supermarket, as food preservatives. Hence, the level of citrate salts of various metals in our daily food has to be allocated to acceptable levels; as well enforcement of these acceptable levels requires an analytical tool capable of quick, selective and sensitive detection and quantification of citric acid levels in our daily food. This analytical method utilizes

    In the following experiment, fluorescence methods and techniques will be used to determine the detection limit and the concentration of quinine in tonic water. As shown in the graph of the quinine standard samples, the concentration was on average was 350 ppm. This concentration is incorrect, since it did not factor in the max emission and the emission at smaller concentrations. Despite the error in the calibration data, the pH data was able to be observed and assesse the relationship of pH to emission

    Avi Borad The Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity Introduction: Metabolism is a necessary process in the function of living cells, which is driven by enzymes. Enzymes are catalysts that speed up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy. Changes in the pH of an environment in which the enzymes act affect their performance capability. The optimum pH is the pH in which the enzymes catalyze the reaction at the fastest rate. The type of enzyme affects its optimum pH. Enzymes are typically denatured
