Lecture 3 Identify amino-/carboxy termini, and R-group on amino acid What is chirality? Identify a carbon that is chiral (i.e., has 4 different groups attached) Chiral compounds rotate plane polarized light Memorize amino acid 1) structure, 2) classification (hydrophobic, aliphatic, aromatic, negatively charged, positively charged, polar uncharged) Be able to draw glycine (the generic amino acid) Given an amino acid structure and pKas of ionizable groups, be able to determine the charge at pH 1, pH 14, and pH 7...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
