Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 3UTM
A craniotomy for biopsy was scheduled and the neurosurgeon advised the staff that the patient was being assessed for symptoms of ataxia and relatively sudden onset of dementia. Tumors and any other intracranial lesions had been ruled out by radiographic studies. The patient had lived in England approximately 10 years ago.
Utilizing the AST Standards of Practice from the AST website (www.ast.org), Standards of Practice for the Decontamination of Surgical Instruments, Standard XIV, what might be done with the contaminated instruments post-operatively to ensure no possible cross-contamination with future patients?

Your instructor will give you 2 amino acids during the activity session (video 2-7. A. First color all the polar and non-polar covalent bonds in the R groups of your 2 amino acids using the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. B. Next, color where all the hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions and ionic bonds could occur in the R group of each amino acid. Use the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. C. Position the two amino acids on the page below in an orientation where the two R groups could bond together. Once you are satisfied, staple or tape the amino acids in place and label the bond that you formed between the two R groups. - Polar covalent Bond - Red - Non polar Covalent boND- yellow - Ionic BonD - PINK Hydrogen Bonn - Purple Hydrophobic interaction-green O=C-N H I.
