TURMERIC ( CURCUMIN )

Curcumin is a phytopolylphenol pigment isolated from the plant Curcuma longa, commonly known as turmeric, with a variety of pharmacologic properties.

Curcumin blocks the formation of reactive-oxygen species, possesses anti-inflammatory properties as a result of inhibition of cyclooxygenases (COX) and other enzymes involved in inflammation; and disrupts cell signal transduction by various mechanisms including inhibition of protein kinase C.

These effects may play a role in the agent's observed antineoplastic properties, which include inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and suppression of chemically induced carcinogenesis and tumor growth in animal models of cancer. (NCI04)

CK-12!

DAY 1 4 /30 Challenge. #e-learning, distance learning & remote learning. So here is the next update for teachers’ as well as for students, learning resources are a huge fuss or teachers’ as we really want a good content knowlwdge about a particular subjects, so here is the good learning resource for students where they can learn topics in more interactive ways! CK-12 PROVIDES: l FLEXBOOKS l SIMULATIONS l PLIX l ADAPTIVE PRACTICE l Tens of Thousands of Free, Customizable STEM Resources l Discover Actionable Insights l Automatic Grading & Reporting L ast you can integrate with google classroom, Edmodo, Schoology, Canvas, Kiddom and much more! I personally recommend this learning resources will be very much effective to use during virtual classroom! D o comment below if you know any other resources!

SUGAR MOLECULES/CHEMICAL FORMULA

Sugar chemical Formula Sugar, also known as saccharose, sucrose or by the chemical name α-D-glucopyranosyl, is a carbohydrate extensively used in the food industry and homemade food preparation. Formula and structure: The sucrose chemical formula is C 12 H 22 O 11 and the molar mass is 342.30 g mol -1 . The structure is a disaccharide formed by two subunits, one of glucose and one unit of fructose. The crystal structure is monoclinic. Its chemical structure can be written as below, in the common representations used for organic molecules. Physical properties: Sucrose is white, odorless and sweet taste crystalline solid. It is highly soluble in water (2000 g /L) and other polar solvents. Its density is 1.587 g mL -1 . The sucrose doesn't have melting point, it decomposes up to 186 C. Chemical properties: The sucrose is formed by two subunits of other very known sugars: fructose and glucose. One of them is a six member heterocycle (glucose ring) while the anoth
