Carbohydrate Lab Report Introduction Qualitative identification of a substance is of significant importance in chemistry. Physical constants such as melting points have traditionally been used by organic chemistry for identification of unknown compounds. As for inorganic substances‚ the precipitation of a solid‚ results of a flame test‚ or the formation of a colored substance could all be keys to identifying a sample. Chromatography and spectra are amongst the newer techniques

regular diet for it to be more nutritious. By reviewing my regular eating patterns‚ I realized I eat too many carbohydrates a day. The amount of carbohydrates I consumed was more than double the RDA‚ Recommended Dietary Allowance. To help reduce my carbohydrate consumption‚ I plan on eating less cereal because that has become a go-to meal for me at college. Cereal can add up in sugar and carbohydrates quickly when it is eaten as a meal or in large amounts. I also plan to eliminate the amount of bread I

Lab BCH2333 Section: 4 (Monday afternoon 1st week) Experiment 1: Carbohydrates Separation Techniques Based on Molecular Size Demonstrator: Date Preformed: January 26th‚ 2015 Date of Submission: February 2nd‚ 2015 Team #: Purpose The purpose of this experiment is essentially two-fold. Two of the four experimental procedures of this laboratory will be used to gain a conceptual and practical understanding of separation techniques used to isolate monomers from their respective polymers. Namely

Metabolic Rate of a Mouse Lab Write-Up A . The purpose of this experiment was to measure the oxygen consumption of a mouse in which I concluded that they would have less consumption considering their much smaller size. It turned out that they produced 60 O /min which means they use about 0.0024 cal/min or 3.5 cal/day. That is indeed less than the amount we humans use‚ but if the given the mass of a human‚ they would use 15‚ 313 cal/day which is more than the 2‚000 calories we use on an

substitutes; fats; free foods; combination foods; fast foods; and alcohol. Carbohydrate Counting When you eat a healthy meal or snack‚ it is usually a mixture of carbohydrate‚ pro- tein‚ and fat. However‚ your body changes carbohydrate into glucose faster than it changes protein and fat into glucose. It is the carbohydrate that makes your blood glucose level go up. In carbohydrate counting‚ you count foods that are mostly carbohydrate. These include starches (breads‚ cereals‚ pasta)‚ fruits and fruit

Edward F. Coyle’s article‚ Fat Metabolism During Exercise: New Concept‚ focuses on answering the question to “what limits the rate at which people can convert their body fat into energy during exercise. He focuses on the different components of fats‚ such as the adipose tissue‚ blood plasma‚ and the oxidization of fats. He highlights how within the adipose tissue there an estimated 50‚000 to 60‚000 kcal energy stored as triglyceride and an obese individual will have more energy than compared to an

Discussion of the Metabolic and Hormonal effects of Very Low Carbohydrate Diets 1.0 Summary Low carbohydrate‚ high protein diets have been raising concerns within medicine for quite some time. There is quite some conflicting evidence regarding the benefits and detrimental effects that these diets may have on metabolic and whole body health.

The term metabolism is often used to indicate especially the breakdown of food and its transformation into energy. Although weight loss is a matter of sacrifice‚ the reality is that there is a bunch of ways to lose weight quickly. One is to increase metabolism which will help us gain the results so quickly.
