Process Synthesis A process for isolating an anti- body against insulin has, as a unit operation, the re- action of the antibody with the antigen in a continu- ous stirred tank reactor. The reaction product is a precipitate that is continuously removed from the reactor with 10% of the solution, which is mouse serum. Since insulin is an expensive reagent, only stoichiometric amounts can be added to the mouse serum, which contains 8 mg/liter of anti-insulin. If this particular monoclonal antibody precipitates with its antigen in a 1:1 ratio, how many milligrams of insulin must be added to the reactor per hour to process 100 ml of mouse serum per hour? (Assume that equilibrium is achieved in this reactor.) Sketch a flowchart of this process.

Acetaminophen Elixir 120 mg/5 mL During the Covid-19 epidemic, the public were advised high fever was a common side effect of infection and to ensure they had acetaminophen on hand. Because of this, there was a sudden nation-wide shortage of commercial liquid acetaminophen. The local Doctor asked if you could compound a mixture for a young child with otitis media as the Mother cannot find any commercially. The Pharmacist did some research and found the following referenced formula for you to use. The Doctor would like to give 50 mL. The child weighs 16 kg. Formulation: Acetaminophen 120 mg 90% ethanol 0.7 mL Propylene glycol 0.5 mL Purified water 0.5 mL Glycerol qs ad 5 mL Dissolve acetaminophen in ethanol and propylene glycol, add most of the glycerol, add water, adjust to volume with glycerol. Strength: 120 mg/5 mL Child dose: 15 mg/kg q4-6h. Maximum 4 doses in 24 hours. Warnings: Contains 13% alcohol EUD: As per local guidelines. Questions: Calculate appropriate…
Use correct sig figs The concentration of a purified monoclonal antibody was measured using UV280 nm. The sample was diluted (200 μL of purified antibody in 800 μL buffer) prior to analysis using a spectrophotometer. Calculate the concentration of antibody in the purified fraction if the Abs=0.95 of the diluted antibody. The molar absorptivity is known to be 191,411.6 M-1cm-1 and the molecular weight is 150 kDa. The pathlength for the cuvette is 1 cm.
Prepare a schematic diagram and present it. The Figure should illustrate the interactions made between the key components of total and non-specific binding reactions in drug bindings. In preparing this figure, it should reflect on the role of each of the components of the reaction mixtures, and why the subtraction of non-specific from total binding allows us to calculate specific binding. The Figure Legend should be brief but informative.

A purified protease enzyme from the fungus Aspergillus sp. Is tested in a laboratory. This enzyme was lyophilized as a white powder. When reconstituting with phosphate buffer pH 7.2 the active enzyme is obtained. To check its purity, an electrophoresis is performed where a single band of approximately 70,000 molecular weight is observed. The solution with enzymatic activity was stored at 4ºC for later use. A few days later it was found that the enzymatic activity had been lost and in the electrophoretic analysis, instead of a single band there were three bands of weights 40,000, 20,000 and 10,000. Come up with a reasoned explanation of what might have happened to the enzyme

Given this, if you used 6g of vitamin Z powder to make 20 ml of solution, what is the % concentration of this solution? (I gave the image since I don't know if that info is needed to solve this question.)It also gives a follow-up, if you can help here too: You work in a lab as a summer student. One of your tasks is to make sure that there is enough cell culture medium containing antibiotics to grow bacteria. One day you realize that there is only 5 ml of 10% Antibiotic stock solution in the freezer. You decide to use it all to prepare the working culture medium with 0.01% antibiotic. In the lab there is plenty of growth medium without antibiotics. (Note: dilution in medium is like dilution in water). You remember the equation to make dilutions of stock solutions. You usually use this formula to calculate the required volume of a stock solution, but you realize it can apply here as well, even though the unknown is the final volume. So, you make that dilution. Given that each bacterial…
