Liver breaks down carbohydrates into glucose which the body uses for sugar. Heart needs to beat, brain needs energy to maintain vital functions and we need to replace cells. Starch: the food standards agency recommends that a third of the food we eat should come from starchy foods like pasta, bread, rice, potatoes and chapattis. Starchy food sometime referred to as compound carbohydrates; liberate energy more little by little than sugars, so they will keep you contented longer. Starch is the most important carbohydrate in the human diet.
How Sweet It Is! Determining Percent Sugar ANONYMOUS Chemistry 6th Due: 3/21/12 Introduction Background Information Sugar is an import compound that is used by all complex living organisms. There are many types of sugar including glucose, fructose, and lactose. However, the type of sugar that is tested for in this lab is the common sugar used while cooking. This sugar is called sucrose.
2 Understand the principles and steps of the decontamination process. 2.1 The three steps of the decontamination process are: Clean, disinfect and sterilize. Cleaning should be carried out with disinfectant or cleaning agents and staff know beforehand the proper use of each and when to use them. Any sterilizing techniques should be taught to staff and they should be monitored. 2.2 Cleaning agents should be used to prevent infection and to follow any organisational policies and COSHH regulations.
One is amylose an unbranched polysaccharide with 1-4 glycosidic bonds. The second is amylopectin, a branched polysaccharide with 1-4 and 1-6 glycosidic bonds, as is glycogen. All of these are made of Alpha glucose monomers. In starch the chain of Alpha glucose is in a coil making it compact and efficient for storage in small space, allowing more to be stored per unit volume. Glycogen has more branches which are shorter than in starch.
Denatured sucrase was used as a control because denatured enzymes, in this case sucrase, lose their shape and can potentially lose their ability to catalyze a chemical reaction. Using deantured sucrase as a control helps to further solidify and/or compare findings from solutions
2. Explain why denatured sucrase was used as a control. to determine if a true effect was made on the active sucrase by ph, temperature and sucrose or if affect would be seen on both denaturated and active sucrase 3. Alkaline DNS denatures sucrase. Explain why it is important to denature the enzyme.
They should also wear Disposable gloves when physical contact with open wounds, for example when changing dressings, handling needles or inserting an intravenous drip. Hands should be washed after gloves are removed. Patients with a known or suspected MRSA infection should be isolated. Nurses should carefully handle /disposal of soiled linen and other contaminated waste and dispose of them in the right bin. Nurses must use sterile dressings on open skin surfaces to prevent infection.
These include; chemical exposure or contact, pressurized lines, potential area contamination. The directions on the risk assessment should be followed to reduce any of these risks. 4. Describe the system isolation procedures or permit-to-work procedure that applies Job note and permit to work system applies the same as any other job on site. In addition to this, valve handles should be chained off or removed.
Treat casualties with the most serious conditions first and arrange for appropriate help. Washing hands and wearing latex free disposable gloves covering cuts and grazes on hands with waterproof dressing, wearing a plastic apron if dealing with large quantities of body fluids and wearing plastic glasses to protect eyes. Safe disposal of waste also avoid touching
Once an item has been cleaned it must be dried thoroughly with a disposable cloth to prevent any organisms multiplying. 2.3 Disinfecting agents are used to reduce the number of microorganisms. Disinfectants are governed by COSHH regulations 1999. Storage and usage instructions should be adhered to. The correct PPE should also be used when disinfecting items ensure that the solution reaches all surfaces of the item to ensure thorough disinfection before the sterilisation process can
