Of course, one cannot stick a piece of tape to each carbon atom in the actual glucosemolecule. But one can do the next best thing: use radioisotopes to trace themovement of various atoms. Specifically, because carbon dioxide is a gas, usingradioactive C-14 allows for the easy detection of the 14CO2 that is given off.Suppose you introduce one glucose molecule that has had all of its carbons radioactivelylabeled. Suppose further that each step in glycolysis and in the citric acid cycle takes oneminute to complete (so glycolysis, for instance, takes ten minutes to complete, theconversion to acetyl CoA takes one minute, and the citric acid cycle takes eight minutes).Draw a plot of time (x-axis) versus radioactivity detected by a gas sensor (y-axis). Labelthe x-axis with enough time increments so it is clear at what minute the radioactivitywas detected. Use differing peak heights to give an indication of the amount ofradioactivity detected at that point.

In 1976, a team of chemists in the United Kingdom was developing new insecticides by modifying sugars with chlorine (Cl2), phosgene (Cl2CO), and other toxic gases. One young member of the team misunderstood his verbal instructions to test a new molecule. He thought he had been told to taste it. Luckily for him, the molecule was not toxic, but it was very sweet. It became the food additive sucralose. Sucralose has three chlorine atoms substituted for three hydroxyl groups of sucrose (table sugar): The altered sugar binds so strongly to the sweet-taste receptors on the tongue that the human brain perceives it as 600 times sweeter than sucrose. Sucralose was originally marketed as an artificial sweetener called Splenda, but it is now available under several other brand names. Researchers investigated whether the body recognizes sucralose as a carbohydrate by feeding sucralose labeled with 14C to volunteers. Analysis of the radioactive molecules in the volunteers urine and feces showed that 92.8 percent of the sucralose passed through the body without being altered. Some people are worried that the chlorine atoms impart toxicity to sucralose. How would you respond to that concern?
Example 14.6 The oxygen requirement for cell growth in glueose can be represented by the following equation (Mateles, 1971) 32NC+8(Nh2)+16(No2) Fx/sM +yo2 – 2.67yc + 1.714YN2 – 8y H2 ro2 = In which ro2 is the oxygen required for each gram of cells produced, N stands for no. of atoms present in each molecule substrate, y stands for mass fractions and M is the MW of the substrate. The yeast cell may be considered to be CH1.800.5NO.2. Calculate rO2 if the yield factor (Yx/s) is 0.46g of cells produced for each gram of substrate consumed.
