Summary:Food manufacturers may soon have more control over the amount of sour taste that comes through in a variety of acidified food products.Sour is one of only five primary human taste sensations, and is stimulated by organic acids. Some organic acids are naturally present in foods, such as the citric acid in oranges, malic acid in apples and, as a result of fermentation, the lactic acid in yogurt. These and other organic acids may also be used as food ingredients.

Organic Farming Beats No-Till?
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/07/070722162434.htm
Summary:Researchers was surprised to find out that organic farming was a better soil builder than no-till.No-till has always been thought to be the best soil builder because it eliminates plowing and minimizes even light tillage to avoid damaging organic matter and exposing the soil to erosion. They also showed light-tillage organic corn,soybean and wheat with the same crops with no-till.

New Test Improves Detection Of Liver Cancer

Summary:The main idea of this passage is Cancer of the liver is very difficult to detect, and it is a major cause of death in Asia and Africa, with rising incidence in Western countries as well. it seems to almost be impossible to track down once in the immune system so begans to spread easly.it also says that they have developed a test to detect liver cancer in an early stage. liver cancer is caused by Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) it is the most primary liver cancer in theses countrys
Questions:
What is the major role of this molecule in the cell? to determine weather there is a diseas in the body or not
List three things you learned from this article in your own words.some cancers are almost unditectable, liver cancer is killing peole in asia and africa, and cancer is silent but deadly in a lot of cases.

Exploring biology with small organic molecules
Small organic molecules have proven to be invaluable tools for investigating biological systems, but there is still much to learn from their use. To discover and to use more effectively new chemical tools to understand biology, strategies are needed that allow us to systematically explore 'biological-activity space'. Such strategies involve analysing both protein binding of, and phenotypic responses to, small organic molecules. The mapping of biological-activity space using small molecules is akin to mapping the stars uncharted territory is explored using a system of coordinates that describes where each new feature lies.
What is the major role of this molecule in the cell? Organic molecules substance that contain carbon, are livinf thing.
List three things you learned from this article in your own words. small O.M and biological systems.

Music made to measure from nature's proteins
Link:http://www.newscientist.com/channel/health/dn11775-music-made-to-measure-from-natures-proteins.html
Summary: This article is about how you can translate proteins into a musical form. The "notes" available are the 20 natural amino acids from which all proteins are constructed. The basic concept is simple: assign each amino acid to a different musical note, so leucine could be middle C on the piano, for example, serine could be D, and so on till all 20 have their own note.
What is the major role of this molecule in the cell? Proteins code the information from the genes
List three things you learned from this article in your own words. Different proteins make different sounds, The sounds can be used to identify different proteins, they can use the sounds to make a musical score.
What impact would the absence of this molecule have on the cell? Without Protiens there would be nothing to code the genetic information

Summary: Another protein called DAF-16 jumps in to help buy a little more time for people. It helps by clumping extra amyloid together in a way to make it less toxic. A scientist thought this was bad at first, but it turned out not to be. Dillin is now test his experiment in mice to make sure it works the same way. Drugs are already being made to get rid of amyloid in the brain.

Questions:
- What is the major role of this molecule in the cell? to get rid of amyloid in the brain causing alzheimers
- List three things you learned from this article in your own words. Medicines are being made to help people who have alzheimers. Research found that the smaller amyloids are the poisinous form causing alzheimers. The drug is being tested on roundworms and mice because both can get alzheimers according to this article.
- What impact would the absence of this molecule have on the cell? Since the drug is not out yet, it has no impact on anyone. But when it does it will help the people who have alzheimers.
