First of all I suggest you to check and correct the mistakes which you have done in your question. It is sodium hydroxide (NaOH) rather than sodium hydroxede, the mycobacterium is not digested rather sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is used to homogenize and decontaminate the sputum sample which is generally collected in case of pulmonary tuberculosis. The sputum may contain the mycobacterium along with other normal commensal flora of the upper respiratory tract and the oral cavity. The load of mycobacterium may be less and it may be entrapped in the mucous part of the sputum sample, therefore, the process of homogenization is done using sodium hydroxide to digest the mucous, liberate the entrapped mycobacterium and destroy the contaminating commensal flora.
Homogenization and decontamination is generally done by different methods but Petroff's method is the most commonly used. The sample is then neutralized by adding HCl (hydrocholoric acid) and is used for smear and culture.
It isn't. When sodium is consumed in food it is already in the same form as it is when used by the body.
Corneal abrasions are usually detected using a slit-lamp with sodium-fluoroscein dye and blue light, which utilizes the concept of fluorescence to pinpoint corneal staining from a corneal abrasion.
Its not digested as it is easily small enough to be absorbed directly. It Moves through channels called aquaporins that are present on the intestinal villus cells following the osmotic gradient set by sodium.
sodium chlorateNaClO3 = Sodium Chlorate
Examples: sodium chloride, sodium carbonate, sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium hydroxide, sodium sulfide, sodium acetate, sodium bromide, borax, etc.
Sodium chloride has two atoms in the formula unit (NaCl): sodium and chlorine.
Sodium metal is pure sodium and is made of sodium atoms.
Sodium sulfide: Na2S Sodium sulfite: Na2SO3 Sodium sulfate: Na2SO4
Sodium phosphide
Sodium thiosulfate or Sodium Hyposulphite.
The name of the compound represented by the formula NaI is sodium iodide.
Sodium fluoride is an ionic compound with the formula NaF.
