(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The importance of relatively rapid inactivation of circulating hormone.

Introduction:

Hormone is an organic substance that is secreted by plants and animals. Hormones regulate many physiological activities. Hormone is made up of protein. It is transported in our body through circulatory system. In blood, regulation of hormone becomes half when radioactively labeled insulin is introduced into an animal. Half of the labeled hormone disappears from the blood.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The way by which the level of circulating hormone remains constant under normal conditions with respect to rapid inactivation.

Introduction:

Hormone is an organic substance that is secreted by plants and animals. Hormones regulate many physiological activities. Hormone is made up of protein. It is transported in our body through circulatory system. In blood, regulation of hormone becomes half when radioactively labeled insulin is introduced into an animal. Half of the labeled hormone disappears from the blood.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The changes that an organism makes in the level of circulating hormone.

Can koch's postulates of disease causation be applied to non-microorganism disease pathogens (such as molecules)?
Here is my literature Beta Carotene HPLC analysis graph. Can you help me explain what each peak is at each retention time?   Thank You :D
I have a literature B-Carotene HPLC graph in which showcases a retention time of roughly 23.6 and 25.1.  Please help me compare my two different Anti-Oxidant Juice graphs. (Attached) The juices provided are: V8 Carrot Ginger Blend and V8 Original Blend Noticing the HPLC graphs I saw no peaks for the Original Blend for B-Carotene. However the Carrot Ginger Blend showed similar peaks --> Why is this reason? Please explain in terms of Retention time and Area (Under Curve).   Thank You!
