Isolation of Trimyristin from Nutmeg by Extraction Introduction: Extraction is the physical process by which a compound or mixture of compounds is transferred from one phase into another. We will be looking specifically at an organic solvent extraction which is a type of solid-liquid extraction. This type of extraction utilizes an organic solvent that has a high affinity for the compound of interest. Most reactions produce a crude mixture of undesired reagent‚ byproducts‚ as well as the

Cholesterol Research Paper | By: Diana Rivera | | Cholesterol is a fatty‚ soft substance found in all of your body. The body needs it to work properly such as holding cells together and to also make hormones such as estrogen‚ testosterone‚ cortisol‚ vitamin D‚ and substances to help you digest foods. They body actually makes most of what it needs in the liver and the rest comes from food you eat such as meats‚ fish‚ eggs‚ butter‚ and whole milk. Bad cholesterol is considered when too much

Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals‚ biological contaminants‚ suspended solids and gases from contaminated water. The goal is to produce water fit for a specific purpose. Most water is purified for human consumption (drinking water)‚ but water purification may also be designed for a variety of other purposes‚ including meeting the requirements of medical‚ pharmacological‚ chemical and industrial applications. In general the methods used include physical processes such

to keep the risk of heart disease. If your total cholesterol number is between 200 and 239‚ you have borderline high cholesterol. Any cholesterol level of 200 mg/dL or more increases your risk heart disease. More than half the adults have levels above 200 mg/dl. 33 mg/dL HDL that is the "good cholesterol" is too low. HDL "good cholesterol" should be above 40. HDL is the good cholesterol that cleans up the bad cholesterol. When LDL "bad cholesterol" is 160-189 mg/dL means it is high‚ and this high

Purification of Water Domestic: Distillation - In the process of distillation water is heated and evaporation takes place‚ whereby water changes back to water when cooled; this process is called condensation. The condensed water is the purest form of water‚ free from microbes‚ and impurities. Boiling - Boiling is the best and simplest method to purify water. After straining the water twice through clean muslin cloth‚ it is boiled for ten minutes lo kill the microbes present in it and also remove

Date of experiment: September 3rd‚ 2013 Organic Chemistry II – CHLB330 Name: Symone MoxeyLab Partner: Lynden Cooper Isolation of caffeine from tea leave Abstract:- Introduction:- Caffeine is probably the most commonly used addictive drug. This drug is found in a number of things ingested by people. It belongs to a group of nitrogen bases called purines. Because caffeine possesses these base-like properties‚ it is described as an alkaloid. They usually taste bitter and often are physiologically

OIL PURIFICATION A SCIENCE INVESTIGATORY PROJECT CHAPTER I Background of the Study INTRODUCTION Oil used in cooking foods is commonly derived from vegetables. Cooking oil is commonly used for frying and oil used for frying is usually thrown away. The recycling of cooking oil also provides a form of revenue for restaurants‚ which are sometimes compensated by cooking oil recyclers for their used deep fryer oil. Cooking oil recycling also results in less used oil being disposed
