Exhaled air has more carbon dioxide because the blood contains some carbon dioxide (a waste product) that is transferred to the air in the lungs, which is then exhaled. The result is that the exhaled air contains less oxygen and more carbon dioxide than the inhaled air. The air in the lungs also becomes humidified with water before it is exhaled.
A contact lens is a lens placed on the cornea of the eye.
Importance of buffers in contact lens products:
Buffers: They aim to keep the pH of the solutions at values between 6.6 and 7.8 in order to maintain the lens parameters and the effectiveness of the solutions. They are made by the combination of an acid and its sodium salt (phosphate and acetate for example). Borate and citrate buffers are used.
Importance of isotonicity in contact lens products:
The solution composed by isotonic saline solution.
Isotonia is expressed by osmolarity or cryoscopic lowering
- 0.236 to 0.446 mOsmoles / l (increases during the day)
- If the osmolarity of the mixture is different from that of the tears, it causes discomfort and irritation
• Increased tear secretion
• Increase the blink frequency
- If hypotonia, entry of water to the epithelial cells, if hypertonia: inverse
- Osmolarity restored 1 or 2 minutes after instillation
Lipids , lipids , and lipids x'D
I have searched everywhere, but I have not found the proposals of the question, but I will explain to you what is the endoplasmic reticulum so that you can answer it.
The endoplasmic reticulum is a eukaryotic organelle located in the cytoplasm.
The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membrane tubules (often interconnected) scattered throughout the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Its membrane, which alone represents more than half of the cellular membrane system, is in contact with the nuclear envelope.
The endoplasmic reticulum can be:
Granular (or rough) (RER) that is to say associated with ribosomes.
Smooth (SER).
The granular endoplasmic reticulum is the place of synthesis (in the associated ribosomes) of the proteins secreted outside the cell and of the proteins and lipids constituting the membranes of the cellular organelles. Golgi, lysosomes, mitochondria, nucleus, ribosomes, vesicles ...). It participates in the correct folding of the proteins that have just been synthesized.
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum participates in cellular metabolism, synthesizing lipids and storing calcium.
