Synthetic

Examples of Synthetic in the following topics:

• Types of Synthetic Organic Polymers

  • Synthetic organic polymers are human-made polymers with various main chain and side chain compositions.
  • Synthetic polymers are human-made polymers.
  • Poly acrylates are the backbones of common synthetic polymers such as polythene and polystyrene.
  • A wide variety of synthetic polymers are also available with variations in their main chains and side chains.
  • The common PET bottles are made of a synthetic polymer, polyethylene terephthalate.

• Synthetic Preparation of Aldehydes and Ketones

• The Remainder Theorem and Synthetic Division

  • Synthetic division is a technique for dividing a polynomial and finding the quotient and remainder.
  • An shorthand way to perform long division is synthetic division.
  • However, synthetic division works for every polynomial with leading coefficient equal to $1.$ The most useful aspects of synthetic division are that it allows one to calculate without writing variables and uses fewer calculations.
  • We use synthetic division.
  • This way we can still use synthetic division.

• Spencer and Social Darwinism

  • Herbert Spencer created what he called "sociology," a synthetic philosophy that tried to find a set of rules explaining social behavior.
  • Following Comte, Spencer created a synthetic philosophy that attempted to find a set of rules to explain everything in the universe, including social behavior.
  • According to Spencer's synthetic philosophy, the laws of nature applied to the organic realm as much as to the inorganic, and to the human mind as much as to the rest of creation.
  • Thus, Spencer's synthetic philosophy aimed to show that natural laws led inexorably to progress.
  • But, popular belief to the contrary, Spencer did not merely appropriate and generalize Darwin's work on natural selection; Spencer only grudgingly incorporated Darwin's theory of natural selection into his preexisting synthetic philosophical system.

• Synthetic Antimicrobial Drugs

  • Antimicrobials include not just antibiotics, but synthetically formed compounds as well.
  • Synthetic agents include: sulphonamides, cotrimoxazole, quinolones, anti-virals, anti-fungals, anti-cancer drugs, anti-malarials, anti-tuberculosis drugs, anti-leprotics, and anti-protozoals.
  • The original antibacterial sulfonamides (sometimes called sulfa drugs or sulpha drugs) are synthetic antimicrobial agents that contain the sulfonamide group.
  • Recall the synthetic antimicrobial drugs that are sulfonamide and sulphonamide based

• Complex and Synthetic Media

  • Two major sub types of media are complex and synthetic medias, known as undefined and defined media.
  • Undefined media are sometimes chosen based on price and sometimes by necessity - some microorganisms have never been cultured on defined media.A defined medium (also known as chemically defined medium or synthetic medium) is a medium in which all the chemicals used are known, no yeast, animal, or plant tissue is present.
  • Chemically defined media differ from serum-free media in that bovine serum albumin or human serum albumin with either a chemically defined recombinant version (which lacks the albumin associated lipids) or synthetic chemical such as the polymer polyvinyl alcohol which can reproduce some of the functions of serums.

• Alkyl Halide Occurrence

  • Synthetic organic halogen compounds are readily available by direct halogenation of hydrocarbons and by addition reactions to alkenes and alkynes.
  • Many of these have proven useful as intermediates in traditional synthetic processes.

• Aluminosilicates

  • These can be found as synthetic, amorphous, sodium aluminosilicates, a few naturally-occurring minerals, and synthetic zeolites.
  • Synthetic, amorphous, sodium aluminosilicate is widely used as a food additive, E-554.

• Waxes

  • Unlike most natural waxes, which are esters, synthetic waxes consist of long-chain hydrocarbons lacking functional groups.
  • Paraffin wax is a type of synthetic wax derived from petroleum and refined by vacuum distillation.
  • Synthetic waxes may also be obtained from polyethylene.

• Fiber

  • Fiber arts refer to the use of plant, animal, or synthetic fibers to construct practical or decorative objects, prioritizing aesthetic value over utility.
  • Broadly speaking, textile arts use plant, animal, or synthetic fibers to construct practical or decorative objects.
  • In addition to these traditional materials, synthetic materials such as plastic and acrylic are now used.
