NATURE OF ANALCHEMISTRY Flashcards
LESSON 1
CHEMICAL ANALYSIS IS USED TO DIAGNOSE DISEASES BY ANALYZING BLOOD, URINE AND OTHER BODILY FLUIDS.
MEDICINE
IONIZED CALCIUM IN BLOOD SERUM HELP DIAGNOSE PARATHYROID DISEASE IN HUMANS. WHAT TYPE OF MEASUREMENTS IS THIS?
QUANTITATIVE
GIVE ME THE EXAMPLE OF LOW-IONIZED CALCIUM
Hypoparathyroidism
High Ionized Calcium
Hyperthyroidism
Hyperparathyroidism
What is the normal range of ionized calcium of newborns?
4.2 to 5.58 mg/dL
What is the normal range of ionized calcium in Children (2months to 18 years)
4.8 to 5.52 mg/dL
What is the normal range of ionized calcium in adults
4.5 to 5.6 mg/dL
Chemical analysis is used to determine the nutritional content and quality of food products.
Food Industry
Chemical analysis is used to identify and quantify contaminants in soil and water
Environmental Science/Environmental Remediation
What are the examples of environmental science that cause destruction?
Overfertilization, Pesticides and microplastic
Chemical Analysis identifies substances found at crime scenes, such as drugs or explosives and determines their origin.
Forensics
Chemical analysis is used in ensuring the purity and potency of the final product/drug
Pharmaceuticals
Chemical analysis is used to test soil and plant samples to optimize crop yield and prevent nutrient deficiencies.
Agriculture
Analyze chemical composition of rocks and minerals which can give insight into geological processes that shaped our planet
Geology
Chemical Analysis is used to identify and date artifacts as well as investigate organic residues found on artifacts
Archeology
