    on the movement of water into and out of potato cells. I will be able to change the input of my experiment. The input variable will be the concentration of the solution. The 100% solution is sodium chloride dissolved in water (salt water). This will be referred to as the 100% solution from now on. But the type of solution is not important as Osmosis is all about differences in concentrations. The output variable will be the weight of the potato chips, the movement of the water into and out of the

    18F-fludeoxyglucose Chemical Structure: - Formulation: - 18F-FDG is synthesized by electrophilic fluorination with 18F2. Carrier free dissolved 18F-fluoride (18F-) ions in water is produced by proton bombardment of 18O-enriched water which causes a (n-p) reaction in 18O. 18F- is then separated from the aqueous solvent by trapping it on an ion-exchange column. It is then eluted with an acetonitrile solution of 2,2,2-cryptand and potassium carbonate and evaporated to give [(crypt-222) K]+ 18F-
