"Transformation" refers to a change in the heritable characteristics in bacteria that have been incubated with DNA of other bacteria. Some of these incubated bacteria will acquire some of the characteristics of the bacteria from which the DNA was extracted. The DNA enters the incubated bacteria through holes in the cell membrane, and gets incorporated into the bacterial genome.

Not if it is court ordered or is in someway connected to any type of court proceedings. In which case the person would be in contempt of court, and subject to penalties depending on state law.

JUST A CAUTION; ANY TIME YOU REFUSE TO SUBMIT TO A DRUG SCREENING IT IS RECOGNIZED AS BEING A DIRTY TEST.

i was going to answer the same way, refusal is an indication of guilt, you can rebute a positive all you want, (and i have read some pretty original excuses with a witness of how the drug entered the testee),

the contention is a supervisor will notice signs of use, (lateness, absence, decreased job performance, inattentiveness, etc.), slyly give the employee enough confidence that he is not suspected of use, notice that the employee is at the stage of showing up stoned, etc., gather evidence of on duty use, then ask for a drug screen, (the same behavior is encouraged as family unsupportive therapy and frees time the family would spend in therapy for creative family pastimes, good deeds, etc)

if refused, fabricated documentation is easily fabricated for suspension or dismissal, (it happened to me, my supervisor said a customer called, he went to see the subscriber, got an unjust letter stating i was drunk on the job, and superbly slipped it into my work file as i honestly verbalized innocence, funny, i never asked to see the letter, call the union, etc., in retrospect, i now realize it was a hoax)

If you are currently taking Straterra twice daily, as I am, you may need to try different times during the day. After I experimented, I found that I enjoy longer uninterrupted sleep if I take one dose at bedtime or a couple of hours before and take one dose in the morning. I tried taking a dose mid day and it would keep me focused longer, but I did not get the sleep results I desired and a good night's sleep was more important to me. After doing some research on Straterra I would say you should talk to your Dr. about increasing the mg she is taking. Check out Straterra.com and it will help you out alot. You should talk to your doctor about increasing the dose. An initial dose midday might allow her to complete her homework and be more engaged at school. My 8yrold weighs 40 pounds and takes the same 20mg dose. About the bedtime dose.. Not all children get drowsy on Straterra. A bedtime dose helps some children sleep. My son didnt sleep throught the night until he was 6. He now takes Clonidine for that.(He also has Tourettes and that takes care of both)

That depends on how much you are taking. My guess would be that the doctor that prescribed them is trying to get some serious inflammation under control as prednisone is usually only taken in the morning with food.

It depends on the size and weight of your dog. Check with your vet. You do not always have to taper off Prednisaone. If you are only taking it for 5 days it can be prescribed as a 20 mg pill once a day for 5 days. The Vet knows what he is doing, just follow his instructions!

You can if they were prescribed by a doctor to treat your particular condition. It is important your doctor knows the dosages and frequencies you are taking these medications, but they are often prescribed together to treat some types of asthma.

Yes, it can. Studies have shown that this can happen, but there have been women (myself included) who haven't had weight gain with prolactimia...when prolactin is reduced in the body, the weight can come off...the higher the prolactin levels, the larger the weight gain...

Yes, there is no significant drug interactions. Codeine is a cough suppressant/ pain reliever and prednisone is a corticosteroid steroid.

Being both a pharmacist and a doctor, I know for a fact that these two drugs will have no side effects if taken together.

Infact, the taking of Nyquil allows for the prednisone to be absorbed more easily into the body.

UTI's are caused by a number of reasons sometimes dehydration causing heavy crystalline urine, e. coli bacteria that is spread from the anal region to the vagina or urethra, unclean products used to wipe or the lack of wiping all can cause discomfort. Sometimes the symptoms of a UTI are similar to certain STD's so it is wise to see a doctor to check it out. If the infection feels minor as in just a slight tingling try drinking pure unsweetened cranberry juice. The acids in the juice help to balance out the acids in the urine and often will obliterate the problem. However you may see slight traces of blood in the urine and have intestinal cramping. This warrants a doctor's visit. Do not try to cure it with overthe counter UTI pain relievers and do not wait too long before dealing with this problem. UTI's can be contagious if they are e. coli based since you are possibly carrying traces of this bacteria on the penis or inside the vagina. You need to take antibiotics or drink as much cranberry as needed until you feel normal again. If the problem is e.coli a few days of cranberry will not get rid of it, som you will know when to seek help. Whether you are contagious or not, absolutely refrain from sexual activity as this can irritate the problem further and lead to more discomfort. Sometimes it is possible to have crystalline deposits in the urethra or vagina and so intercourse can really aggravate the problem until you completely flush out your sytem with lots of good fluids, avoiding caffiene, citrus juices and alcohol.

I think the term you are thinking of is FIBROMYALGIA, a very painful and chronic condition. If you do a google search for fibromyalgia you'll get a million hits or more. Phil
