Galactose

beverage, I can make better drink choices. The chemical formula for fructose is C6H12O6. The basic empirical structure for the carbohydrate is (CH2O)n. Because of it six carbon atoms, it is a hexose. Glucose, galactose and fructose all share the same molecular formula but the arrangements of the atoms differ. Fructose is completely useless for the body as it cannot be used for energy by your body cells. Excess fructose can cause

name the three monosaccharides important in nutrition. Name the three disaccharides commonly found in foods and their component monosaccharides. In what foods are these sugars found? There are three types of monosaccharides; Glucose, Fructose, and Galactose. Monosaccharides are a type of sugar and often called simple carbohydrates. These different sugars all have the same structures consisting of 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogens, and 6 oxygen atoms. They all follow the rules of chemistry with each carbon

Fabry Disease Fabry disease is an inherited disorder which is caused from abnormal deposit of globotriaosylceramide, a particular fatty substance, in blood vessel walls throughout the body. Some symptoms that may be noticed are pain in the hands and feet, small red spots normally found between belly and knees, cloudy vision, hearing loss, ringing in the ears, and a decreased ability to sweat. The only FDA approved treatment for this disease is enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). This replaces the

cellular matrix material was determined by extracting extra cellular polysaccharides and identifying the glycosyl composition with gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry analysis. Total carbohydrate pool was composed mainly of ribose, xylose, mannose, galactose and glucose. No activity for the glucose 6-phospahe dehydrogenase confirmed that the cells have not lysed during extracting polysaccharides from the mature biofilms. The comprehensive studies of the composition of the matrix are very few and mostly

generations drug can be used as an adjuvant therapy. CONTRAINDICATIONS:- Given below are the contraindications of pregabalin:- 1. Patients who have the galactose intolerance should avoid the drug. 2. Drug should be avoided during the lactation period. 3. Hypersensitivity towards the pregabalin and its analogous. 4. Who have glucose-galactose malabsorption are resisted to take

dramatic effect on how our body uses it. Sugar gives our body energy and keeps our cells functioning. (WSRO, 2012) There are six natural sugars that are found in our daily food, these are alright for the body to use in moderation. Glucose, Fructose, Galactose, Lactose, Sucrose, Maltose, even though these are natural sugars found in our food, our body does reject some of these. For instance, Lactose, many people become lactose intolerant and are not able to digest it because they are missing the enzyme

Lastly, test tube 5, was placed in 100⁰C (boiled yeast) environment which led to have a total of .75 mL of CO₂ production. The data in figure 3 shows the effect of alternate carbohydrate sources on fermentation, all incubated at 45⁰C. Test tube 6, galactose, had a .5 mL of CO₂ production. Test tube 7, Sucrose, produced 8 mL of CO₂ and test tube 8, fructose, produced 5.5 mL of CO₂. In addition, test tube 9 had a 7mL production of CO₂. Test tube 9, lactose, had 0 mL production of CO₂. Lastly, test tube

inheritance pattern that is neither recessive or dominant, and is x linked in this family history as well. The metabolic defect is in in the lysosomal hydrolase alpha-galactosidase A (alpha-Gal A), which catalyzes the hydrolytic cleavage of the terminal galactose from globotriaosylceramide (Gb3). This results in accumulation of globotriaosylceramide within lysosomes in cells, in the vascular

Is drinking cow’s milk safe / healthy? Milk is one of the most popular beverages consumed in the United States, however it has been publicized that it may not be healthy for all humans to consume. There are several components that make drinking milk a healthy option because of the calcium and vitamins it provides to the consumer. Milk strengthens bones and provides factors that help the growth of children. Some of those components are being considered harmful to the diet of consumers. Obesity,

In this lab, we tested how chemical reactions happen when enzymes and reaction rates are effected. For the chemical reaction, we broke down the substrate ONPG into galactose and o-nitrophenol. Using ONPG as the substrate allowed us to see what was actually going on. When breaking down ONPG, the o-nitrophenol turns yellow, unlike lactose which is colorless. There are two ways in which we can manipulate the reaction rate and activation energy in this experiment. Increasing the heat by exposing enzymes
