Question
Chapter 17, Problem 29E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The side effects or the harms of chemotherapy are to be discussed.
Concept Introduction:
Cancer cells are the same as the normal cells of a human being or in fact, it can be said that they are the modified mutant forms of human cells. The healthy cells get mutated by getting exposed to carcinogenic thins, and harmful irradiations.
The anti-cancer agents kill both normal cells and cancer cells. The exploiting part is that cancer cells form again at a faster rate than normal cells.

An orange laser has a wavelength of 610 nm. What is the energy of this light?
The molar absorptivity of a protein in water at 280 nm can be estimated within ~5-10% from its content of the amino acids tyrosine and tryptophan and from the number of disulfide linkages (R-S-S-R) between cysteine residues:
Ε280 nm (M-1 cm-1) ≈ 5500 nTrp + 1490 nTyr + 125 nS-S
where nTrp is the number of tryptophans, nTyr is the number of tyrosines, and nS-S is the number of disulfide linkages. The protein human serum transferrin has 678 amino acids including 8 tryptophans, 26 tyrosines, and 19 disulfide linkages. The molecular mass of the most dominant for is 79550.
Predict the molar absorptivity of transferrin.
Predict the absorbance of a solution that’s 1.000 g/L transferrin in a 1.000-cm-pathlength cuvet.
Estimate the g/L of a transferrin solution with an absorbance of 1.50 at 280 nm.
In GC, what order will the following molecules elute from the column?
CH3OCH3, CH3CH2OH, C3H8, C4H10
