How does adding the sterile mineral oil affect the specificity or the sensitivity of the Decarboxylation Test?
When you add mineral oil for Decarboxylation test you do not need a thick layer of oil, you only need enough to cover the surface of the medium. This promotes fermentation by locking out oxygen, and it also prevents false alkalinization at the surface of the medium. Hopefully my answer can help you. =)
How can being informed help you protect ecosystems?
A better solution to problems such as this oil spill is to prevent them from happening in the first place.
What is the difference between oxidation and hydrolysis?
Oxidation is a reaction in which an atom, molecule or compound loses an electron. OIL = Oxidation Is Lost; RIG= Reduction Is Gain LEO = Lose Electron in Oxidation; GER = Gain Electron in Reduction (LEO the lion says GER) Hydrolysis is a reaction in which a molecule or compound is broken down, by the addition of a water molecule (it is NOT the breaking of a water molecule into oxygen and hydrogen - that is a different reaction called electrolysis). An example of hydrolysis is the breaking down of maltose into 2 glucose molecules. A molecule of water is added, usually with an acid to catalyse the reaction, into a solution of maltose. You can therefore say that hydrolysis is a type of oxidation reaction, being as maltose loses glucose molecule (hence losing the electrons in the atoms of glucose).
What is OIO in microscope?
oIO, stands for oil immersion objective. it was discovered during 1870. the OIO, magnifies the actual size of the specimen , 100 times, with the aid of placing a drop of ceddar oil at the top of the coverslip in slide. Remember that the OIO objective must touch the surface of the oil.
Can yeast be cured by a medicine?
Yes, yeast infections are curable. Most pharmacies will stock yeast infection treatment such as tablets or cream, your doctor can prescribe these too. There are also home methods of treating yeast infections such as tea tree oil, garlic, and pro-biotic yoghurt.

A solution showing pH 7 need not neccessarily be water?
It could be anything. If you have acid and neutralise it with a base, will get a solution which is pH 7 but it would not be water.

What are the ingredients for baguette?
Flour, water, yeast, and sometimes oil.
Why would a doctor advise a drip of glucose than oil or fat when oil or fat contains more energy than glucose?
Cells require glucose. Glucose is delivered faster to the cells than fat or oil. In diabetes, the person may need administration of insulin along with glucose. Insulin is like a key to "unlock" the cell's door, to transport glucose into the cell. Diabetics do not produce enough insulin, so they need pills or injections of insulin.
Is the oil from the oil spill in the gulf that is so far down will it come to the top?
I believe you are asking: How does oil that is far below the sea floor come to the surface? If not, please ask your question again. The BP oil spill comes from a deposit located 13,000 ft below the seafloor, at about 12,000 pounds per square inch pressure. The oil contains dissolved gas. As it flows to the surface, with the drop in pressure and temperature, the gas comes out of solution. The high pressure and gas expansion creates a lot of force enabling the oil to flow quickly in the wellbore to the surface.
