Why pH of Soyabean Casein Digest Medium should be adjusted to 7.3?
The maximal growth pH ranges for bacteria are well defined hence to make a medium which meets the requirements of most bacteria a neutral pH is used. 7.3+-0.2 This pH allows for most organisms to survive even though this pH may not allow for optimized growth. Hence it is at this pH to allow relatively good growth of different microbes.

The Ileum is responsible for absorption of nutrients into the blood stream. Also the jejunum has the same function
The Ileum is the last section of the small intestine (its about 12 feet/ 3.6m in length) and joins the large intestine at the ileocecal valve. The role of the small intestine as a whole is its the major digestive system of the body. Digestion is completed in the small intestine and virtually all absorption of nutrients occurs here.
the ileum absorbs B12 and bile salts and whatever products of digestion that were not absorbed by the jejum
Type your a What is the function of the ileum?nswer here... the thing that yeah!
