Bariatric Surgery

Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) is a routine surgery of the stomach for the reduction of weight. During this surgical procedure, a gastric band is tightened around the stomach to constrict the stomach and reduce its volume (Code 43770). The band is adjustable so that the surgeons can go back and narrow the band more; this reduces the volume of the stomach gradually (Code 43771). The smaller the volume of the stomach, the less food the stomach can hold, and the more weight the patient can lose. Sometimes the band can cut through the stomach wall. When this happens, either the ...

The peptide hormones are proteinous in nature and may have 3 to 200 amino acids residues. This class of hormones includes all the hormones of the hypothalamus and pituitary, as well as insulin and glucagon of pancreas. Peptide hormones are named based on their endocrine activity rather than their chemical structure; for example, growth hormone is thus named because one of its effects is to stimulate growth. The structure of a particular peptide hormone can vary among different species, with some homology between close relatives. Some small peptides are identical; for example, GnRH is identical among mammals but different in ...

Saponification number is defined as the number of milligrams of KOH required to saponify completely 1 gm of fat. Since fats are mixture of triglycerides, most of which are of mixed type, so saponification number is measure of average molecular weight of the fatty acids comprising the fats (i.e. the measure of the average chain length of fatty acids). Saponification number is an important constant particularly in distinguishing or identifying certain oils. Iodine number is defined as the number of grams of iodine absorbed by 100 gm of fat. Halogens, e.g. iodine or bromine are taken up by the ...

The mercuros state is unstable under environmental conditions. Mercury exists in water, sediment, soil and biota only in inorganic mercuric salts and organomercurics.
In the Cold Vapour analysis, mercury from the digest sample is reduced with either SnCl2 or NaBH4 and then measured with a conventional cold vapour flameless atomic absorption spectrometry. The whole system is ...

Wind energy has been in use as far back as 3000 B.C., when sailors in Egypt utilized this energy to move their boats. Today, wind energy is hailed as an important source of energy and is tapped in various regions around the world. Its importance stems from two factors: (1) it is renewable and (2) it is a clean source of energy that does not generate environmentally harmful emissions. To harness wind energy, a wind turbine is used. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of the wind into rotary mechanical energy, which can then be converted to electrical energy (“Wind turbine,” ...
