Unexpectedly busy OPD back to back.
Two cases of unexpected post operative hyphema after uneventful surgery are under observation.
Just goes on to show one can never take things for granted.
Thanks to Bits' meticulous and sharp mind and attention to fine details, we are building
up something substantial to fight the crime in our building.
Copper commonly exists in 2 oxidation states.
+1 or copper ( I ) or Cu1+ (in hypertext) which is called cuprous and + 2 or copper ( II ) or Cu2+.
These states depend on a simple principle of atomic theory (see the explanatory power of this theory).
How many electrons a particular atom is ready to give away, specially from its outermost orbital.
Now see how nature or life or biology started to exploit this simple ability of copper once oxygen began to appear in the earth's atmosphere.
The primordial earth was surprisingly hostile for carbon based biochemistry to flourish.
This copper got hijacked so to speak by a very cunning molecule known as cytochrome c oxidase in a very ingenious cell organelle known as mitochondria.
Cytochrome c oxidase is such a smart protein found in the cell wall of mitochondria, that nearly all life forms right from bacteria to all the eukaryotes (virtually whole of life tree), have ventured to use it.
Most people still do not realize the power of electron.
Our entire electronic and computing world, including logic gates depends on the controlled flow of electrons.
Similarly, in life or biology, the final end of breathing and survival depends on the molecular machinery of electron transport chain.
Electron transport chain or ETC is nothing but a series of compounds that transfer electrons via redox (reduction and oxidation occurring simultaneously) reactions.
Life in essence is pure chemistry.
Again I digress mon ami.
A nasty habit.
We shall continue with this fascinating subject that respects no boundaries between physics, chemistry, biology, microbiology, biochemistry or whatever we apes can think of to ease our limitations.

Good night mon ami and my fellow cousin ape.
