The enzyme glucose oxidase isolated from the mold penicillium notatum catalyzes the oxidation of β-d-glucose to d-glucono-δ-lact

one. this enzyme is highly specific for the β anomer of glucose and does not affect the α anomer. in spite of this specificity, the reaction catalyzed by glucose oxidase is commonly used in a clinical assay for total blood glucose –that is, for solutions consisting of a mixture of β-d-glucose and α-d-glucose. what makes it possible for this test to measure total blood glucose?

zheka24 [161]

Tapping of geothermal energy to produce electricity is done on a larger scale compared to the tapping of the geothermal gradient using a geothermal heat pump. Harnessing geothermal energy is also reliant on geological conditions such as in the area of convection boundaries while geothermal gradient can be harnessed virtually anywhere on the earth surface.

Explain why red blood cells can be maintained in an intact state by keeping them in a normal saline solution.
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

<u>The solution is isotonic.</u>

Explanation:

Saline solututions are mixtures of salt and water. In a normal saline solution, red blood cells maintain their shape. This is because the saline solution is isotonic. Essentially it has the same concentration as inside the red blood cell.

The water does not move down a particular gradient, thus the shape remains unchanged.
