ABSTRACT
This experiment examined the effect of mud thinner on drilling fluid density and viscosity. The function of mud thinner is to control and reduce the apparent density of the mud by calculate the amount of water that needed to decrease the density. The experiment was conducted by using one basic mud as the comparison for second experiment that has 10.7ppg mud density, then it uses mud thinner to achieve the exact mud density that required in this experiment which is 10.2ppg. Also, this experiment was undertaken with the purpose of decrease the density of the drilling fluid as well as to measure the properties of the drilling fluids and compare it with the last experiment. In general, to proceed with the experiment in order to achieve the goals mentioned, a range of instruments were selected such Mud mixer, Mud balance, Thermometer, Remoter, Filter press, Graduated cylinder, pH meter / pH paper, Aging cell, Rotating oven and litter cup, Viscometer and Venire calliper. All these materials were used in order to understand the reasons why the mud varies and to know with precision the different properties that the fluids have. overall, at this experiment was conducted by using Bentonite, Barite and soda ash mixed with water to control the density of the mud.

LAB 2- MOLECULAR BIOLOGY LAB TECHNIQUES
INTRODUCTION
This week’s lab will introduce you to three molecular biology techniques that you will use in future labs. During the course of this activity, you will be learning and practicing micropipetting, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and DNA gel electrophoresis. Each topic below provides, or refers you to, background information on the technique prior to the hands-on activity where you will learn the technique.
Learning Objectives:
1. Be able to properly select and utilize micropipettes for the manipulation of small volumes of liquid.
2. Be able to explain how PCR amplifies DNA and be able to perform a PCR protocol.
3. Understand how gel electrophoresis is able to separate DNA fragments, be able to pour an agarose gel, load samples, and interpret results.
Lab notebooks:
Look over the notebook guidelines posted in the general Lab Materials content folder. Begin this lab by writing a summary of the lab’s objectives.
I. Micropipettes
Pre-lab Introduction:
A micropipette is a kind of fancy eyedropper – one that comes in many different models and volume ranges. But while an eyedropper dispenses drops, micropipettes transfer microliters of fluid. Recall that ‘micro-’ is a prefix in the metric system which means “one-millionth” of the base unit (in this case, a liter, “L”). It may be easier for you to picture one milliliter (mL or ml) of water. If you mentally subdivide that milliliter of water into 1000 tiny equal-sized volumes, each volume is one microliter (abbreviated μL or μl). Watch the 2 pipetting videos posted in the lab 2 content folder (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-OPOYbeZP0 & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgosWmRjjAo) , then continue from here.
Micropipette Anatomy:
1. Examine the figures to the right to familiarize yourself with the anatomy of a micropipette.
2. Micropipette plungers have 3 positions:
a. Rest position- no pressure on plunger
b. First stop- position that will draw desired volume into tip
c. Second stop- position that will fully expel a sample from the tip
3. Pipette tips are pressed.

DISSERTATION on NEW DRUG DISCOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT STAGES OF DRUG DISCOVERYNEHA GUPTA
The process of drug discovery and development is a complex and multi-step endeavor aimed at bringing new pharmaceutical drugs to market. It begins with identifying and validating a biological target, such as a protein, gene, or RNA, that is associated with a disease. This step involves understanding the target's role in the disease and confirming that modulating it can have therapeutic effects. The next stage, hit identification, employs high-throughput screening (HTS) and other methods to find compounds that interact with the target. Computational techniques may also be used to identify potential hits from large compound libraries.
Following hit identification, the hits are optimized to improve their efficacy, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic properties, resulting in lead compounds. These leads undergo further refinement to enhance their potency, reduce toxicity, and improve drug-like characteristics, creating drug candidates suitable for preclinical testing. In the preclinical development phase, drug candidates are tested in vitro (in cell cultures) and in vivo (in animal models) to evaluate their safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. Toxicology studies are conducted to assess potential risks.
Before clinical trials can begin, an Investigational New Drug (IND) application must be submitted to regulatory authorities. This application includes data from preclinical studies and plans for clinical trials. Clinical development involves human trials in three phases: Phase I tests the drug's safety and dosage in a small group of healthy volunteers, Phase II assesses the drug's efficacy and side effects in a larger group of patients with the target disease, and Phase III confirms the drug's efficacy and monitors adverse reactions in a large population, often compared to existing treatments.
After successful clinical trials, a New Drug Application (NDA) is submitted to regulatory authorities for approval, including all data from preclinical and clinical studies, as well as proposed labeling and manufacturing information. Regulatory authorities then review the NDA to ensure the drug is safe, effective, and of high quality, potentially requiring additional studies. Finally, after a drug is approved and marketed, it undergoes post-marketing surveillance, which includes continuous monitoring for long-term safety and effectiveness, pharmacovigilance, and reporting of any adverse effects.
Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

2. Dialysis Lab
Take out your lab notebook!
If you have not finished your Cell Observations Lab conclusion,
leave some space for your conclusion and skip to the next page
Title: Dialysis Lab
Purpose: To make observations of a dialysis apparatus in order
to determine how dialysis tubing functions
3. Dialysis Lab – Materials and Method
Materials and Methods:
- Corn Syrup
- Dialysis Tubing
- 500 mL beaker
- 2 rubber bands
- 10mL pipette
- Water
- Clamp and Ring Stand
7. Dialysis Lab - Results
Write down any observations you see
Then write down any questions you have about the
apparatus.
For Example: Why does ______________ happen?
From one question you can come up with a hypothesis
Maybe __________ happens because the pipette has a cotton
in it.
8. Dialysis Lab - Results
Then you can make an experiment around your hypothesis using
an if … then statement
If the cotton ball in the pipette causes the liquid in the pipette
change and we take out the cotton ball then, there will be no
change in the amount of liquid in the pipette.
Here are the materials available for your experiment…
After writing your hypothesis, have an instructor check it and you
can write method for this experiment
Be sure to include
How you will be recording your data
Only have 1 variable – change only 1 thing
A control
9. Gallery Walk
When everyone is done with their method, we will walk around
and annotate each group’s method
Write one thing that you like about the method and one thing
they can do to make it better
Things to look for
Does the method make sense to you? In other words, is it clear?
Do they have a way to record their data qualitatively and quantitatively?
Do they only have one variable?
Make any adjustments necessary and start your new lab.
10. What was happening?
Dialysis is a process
that takes out waste
and extra water
from blood.
It is an artificial
replacement for
kidneys.
11.
12. The dialysis tube is made
of a permeable
membrane that works by
simple diffusion or
passive diffusion.
Passive Diffusion:
Molecules move from an
area of high
concentration to low
concentration until it fills
the space evenly
(equilibrium)
13.
14. Passive Diffusion: Molecules move from an area of
high concentration to low concentration until it fills
the space evenly
Ex: Farts, Purfume, Food coloring in water
15. Cell Membrane
The cell
membrane is
also semi-
permeable and
wants to
balance with the
water from the
environment
outside.
17. Phospholipids: lipids with polar head (hydrophilic) and non-polar
tail (hydrophobic) that make up the cell membrane.
18.
19. But Wait!
If the fatty acid tails on the phospholipid are non-
polar, how do the water molecules go through?
Aquaporins! Proteins in the cell membrane that have a
tunnel for water to pass through.
20. Aquaporins! Proteins in the cell membrane that have a tunnel
for water to pass through using passive transport
21. Types of Transport Proteins
Passive
Transport:
Moving
molecules in and
out of a
membrane
without using
energy. Can only
move from high
to low
concentration
The cell membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer where the lipids are really cliqu-ish and like to cluster together.Water on the outside water on the inside
