Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood glucose levels. There are different types of insulin preparations categorized by their onset and duration of action: rapid-acting insulin has an onset of 15 minutes; short-acting insulin has an onset of 30-60 minutes; intermediate-acting insulin has an onset of 1-2 hours; and long-acting insulin has an onset of 2-8 hours. Insulin can also be administered as a combination of short-acting and intermediate/long-acting insulins to better control blood glucose throughout the day. Insulin is usually administered via subcutaneous injection in the arm, thigh, or abdomen using a syringe or portable pen device.
It is a anti- hypertensive drug. It is non-selective beta blocker drug. Hence it is beta blocker drug so it has many side effect.Not only Propranolol but also Timolol,Atenolol are beta blocker drugs.
this presentation gives the knowledge about the decongestants are a type of medication that can provide short relief for a blocked nose ................

Insulin is a peptide hormone, produced by beta cells of the pancreas, and is central to regulating carbohydrate and fat metabolism in the body. Insulin causes cells in the liver, skeletal muscles, and fat tissue to absorb glucose from the blood. In the liver and skeletal muscles, glucose is stored as glycogen, and in fat cells (adipocytes) it is stored as triglycerides.
Diabetes mellitus refers to a group of diseases that affect how the body uses blood sugar (glucose). Glucose is an important source of energy for the cells that make up the muscles and tissues.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. What is insulin?
Isa hormone secreted by the
pancreatic beta cells that facilitates
the uptake of glucose into skeletal
muscle and adipose tissue by
increasing the number of glucose
transporters ( GLUT 1 and GLUT 4)
that facilitate glucose diffusion into
these targeted cells.
3. What is insulin
A protein that contains 51 amino acids
When the supply of, or response to, insulin is
adequate, the disease is known as Type
1(IDDM or juvenile-onset) and Type 2
(NIDDM or adult onset) Diabetes
respectively.
4. Insulin Injections
Are
divided into 4 major categories
namely
Rapid acting
Short acting
Intermediate Acting
Long Acting
5. Rapid Acting Insulin
Insulin Aspart (Novolog)
Same with the regular Human insulin except that
proline was replaced by Aspartic acid in position
B28
Onset :15 min; duration: 2-4 hours
6. Rapid Acting Insulin
Insulin Lispro (Humalog)
B28 Lys and B29 Proline Human insulin analog
where in the usual B28 Proline and B29 Lysine
is reversed
Onset:15 mins;duration:2-4 hours
7. Rapid Acting Insulin
Insulin glulisine
is another insulin analogue, with asparagine
at position B3 replaced by lysine, and lysine
at B29 replaced by glutamic acid
Same with other rapid acting insulins
8. Short Acting Insulins
Regular Insulin (Humulin or Novolin)
The only insulin that is approved to be
administered via IV route
Comes from Pork(porcine), beef(bovine) or
Human pancreas or genetically engineered
using rDNA technology from certain
microorganisms(E.coli)
Onset:30-60 min;duration:6 to 8 hours
9. Intermediate Acting Insulin
Isophane Insulin Suspension or Neutral
Protamine Hagedorn (NPH) (Humulin N and
Novolin N)
A sterile suspension of Zinc Insulin crystals
and Protamine sulfate—a protein from the
sperm of a fish (Onchorynchus Fam.
Salmonidae)
Onset:1 to 2 hours; duration:10 to 16 hours
10. Intermediate Acting Insulin
Insulin Zinc Suspension (Lente)
A sterile suspension of insulin modified by the
addition of Zinc chloride
It has an advantage of fewer allergic reactions
than NPH
Onset:1 to 2 hours:duration:10 to 16 hours
11. Long Acting Insulins
Glargine (Lantus)
Differs from Human insulin that asparagine
at position A21 is replaced by GLycine and
an additional 30B-a-L-ARGinine-30B-b-L-
arginINE
A clear solution that is the only true 24-hour
insulin available
13. Long Acting Insulins
Extended Insulin Zinc suspension(Ultra
Lente)
A sterile suspension of insulin modified by
the addition of Zinc chloride
Onset:4 to 8 hours:duration:36 hours
14. Long Acting Insulins
Insulin detemir is another long-acting
insulin analogue that may have some benefit
over isophane insulin.
It is a neutral soluble human insulin
analogue in which the terminal amino acid at
B30 has been replaced by myristic acid, a
14-carbon fatty acid chain.
Duration: up to 24 hours
16. Insulin Combinations
Mixtures of insulin are being prepared prior
to administration if the pre-mixed
combinations of insulin are not suitable for
the patient or not available
A combination of either a rapid or short
acting insulin and an intermediate or long
acting insulin is being used (except Insulin
Glargine which should not be used in
combination with any other types of insulin)
17. Insulin Combinations
Guidelines in mixing insulin prior to
administration
If not specified in a doctor’s order, use insulin of
same concentration
Use proper syringe to measure insulin in units or
mL
Do not contaminate the contents of one vial with
the contents of another vial
18. Insulin Combinations
Always draw the short acting or regular insulin,
which is clear, first, then follow it with the
intermediate or long acting insulin (cloudy)
Never mix a short acting insulin with a Lente or
Ultralente
Never mix a phosphate-buffered insulin(isophane)
with a lente or Ultralente
19. Insulin administration
Almost always being administered via SC
route usually in the arm, thigh or abdomen
Administered by using an insulin syringe or a
tuberculin syringe
Can also be administered by a portable pen
injector, which contains a cartridge that
holds the insulin or a continuous
subcutaneous Insulin infusion (CSII)
device, commonly know as an insulin pump
