The amount of calcium in physiologic fluids can be determined by a complexometric titration with EDTA. In one such analysis, a 0.100-mL sample of blood serum was made basic by adding 2 drops of NaOH and titrated with 0.001 M EDTA, requiring 0.238 mL to reach the end point. Report the concentration of calcium in the sample as miligrams of Ca per 100 mL. (Ca = 40.078 amu).

In the experiment performed for the determination of cholesterol, the function of the calibration curve obtained using 25-400mg/dL standard cholesterol solutions was determined as y= 0.0009x. If the absorbance of the serum sample is determined as 0.28, what is the amount of cholesterol in the sample, in mg/L?
The loading dose of indomethacin in neonates is 0.2 mg/kg of body weight by intravenous infusion. a. What would be the dose for a neonate weighing 6 lb 4 oz? b. How many milliliters of an injection containing 1 mg of indomethacin per 0.5 mL should be administered to obtain this dose?
Creatinine, C4H7N3O, is a by-product of muscle metabolism, and creatinine levels in the body are known to be a fairly reliable indicator of kidney function. The normal level of creatinine in the blood for adults is approximately 1.0 mg per deciliter (dL) of blood. If the density of blood is 1.025 g/mL, calculate the molarity of a normal creatinine level in a 10.0 mL blood sample.
After three minutes, the concentration of drug Zip in the red blood cells is 10 mmoles l-1. What is the average rate of entry of drug Zip into the red blood cells in units of moles min-1 red blood cell-1 during the first three minutes after placing the red blood cells into the bathing solution? Assume that each red blood cell occupies about 1 x 10-13 liters.
a) The total amount excreted into urine as unchanged drug after an oral tablet (A) of 50 mg was 36.4 mg. After an oral capsule dose (B) of 25 mg the Uo was 20.3 mg. Calculate the relative bioavailability of the tablet A with respect to capsule B. If the absolute bioavailability of the oral capsule is determined to be 0.86 calculate the absolute bioavailability of the tablet dosage form. You are required to list the given data, formula and steps for calculations
Calculate the oral loading dose (LD) of digoxin for Miss Jones who weighs 60 kg. The desired plasma concentration (Cp) is 1.5 mcg/L, volume of distribution (Vd) is 7.3 L/kg, the salt factor (S) is 1 and bioavailability fraction (F) is 0.7.Give your answer to the nearest whole number of micrograms.The equation below can be used:Loading Dose = Cp desired x VdS x F
The normal concentration of Ca2+ in blood is 5.0 mEq>L. How many milligrams of Ca2+ are in 1.00 L of blood?
Using the formula V₁D₁ = V₂D2, what volume of a 1/100 (10-2) dilution would you need to produce 100 mL of a 1/10000 (10-4) dilution? (Note: provide your answer in decimal format to three decimal places.)
Plasma or serum LDL-Cholesterol (LDL-C) can be calculated by determining concentrations of total plasma (serum cholesterol (T-C), HDL-Cholesterol (HDL-C) and total plasma (serum) triglycerides(TG) using Friedewald equation: LDL-C = (T-C) - (HDL-C) - TG/5. What is the scientific basis for this equation? What are the limitations of this equation?
Systemic blood pressure is expressed as the ratio of the systolic pressure (when the heart first ejects blood into the arteries) to the diastolic pressure (when the heart is relaxed). Normal systemic blood pressure is 12080. What is the maximum force (in newtons) that the blood exerts against each square centimeter of the heart for a person with normal blood pressure?
