Quinine is a well-known for curing malaria. A person would probably not die as a Darwinian-like African explorer if they had sickle-cell anemia or Canada Dry Toxic Water.A prophylactic is a drug and or treatment that is engineered to fend off harmful diseases. So you would want to bring a hg lamp with you becuase mercury-arc lamps are commonly used in photocleavage reactions which are commonly used in antiviral therapeutic strategies.<br /><br />UV light waves are high energy and shorter than visible light. UV light waves also kill bacteria. Hg-lamps are “efficient sources of deep UV light” which would make them suitable to a person looking to kill bacteria on surfaces around them. The radiation giving off by these lamps would kill the bacteria and provide a healthier enviroment.Annette_Vergarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13524512858127859881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4297839691694588645.post-73957039242049792142010-01-27T20:28:32.810-08:002010-01-27T20:28:32.810-08:00Kevin Winslow

The risks of using this are that the UV rays can harm our skin and the mercury inside the lamp is very hazardous when let out. This lamp would also be very useful in killing bacteria in food and different surfaces. <br /><br />Canada Dry is a brand of tonic water which contains an ingredient called quinine. Although drinking Canada Dry can help protect you from malaria, it could cause alterations in you DNA which could give your child a third arm.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4297839691694588645.post-2541480562166892372010-01-27T19:17:01.210-08:002010-01-27T19:17:01.210-08:00Michelot M.

Low pressure mercury-vapor lamps have usually a quartz bulb in order to emit short wavelength light. Such a lamp can then be used for the cleaning or killing of bacteria.<br /><br />Tonic water originally contained only carbonated water and quinine, and it contained a large amount of quinine. The quinine was added to the drink to protect against malaria, since it was originally intended for consumption in tropical areas of India and Africa where that disease is endemic. But today’s standard 2L Canada Dry bottle has about 225 milligrams of quinine which means you would have to drink 3 2 liter bottles a day to have results.Jose Alvarez Pd. 7noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4297839691694588645.post-38289814322032133782010-01-27T18:21:26.456-08:002010-01-27T18:21:26.456-08:00Joanna Zhang

It'll help you kill the bateria by damaging the bacteria's DNA, however if the UV radiation escapes, you will be sorry indeed.<br /><br />Canada Dry, which has quinine, acts as a prophylactic against malaria. Quanine is a tonic water that is added into beverages like Canada Dry, so you won't die of the disease like one of those Darwinian-like African explorers. If you must, take it in large doses, because today there's medically insignificant quinine in one can of Canada Dry.

The amount of quinine currently in canada dry tonic water is so minscule you would have to drink more that your body weight.

With 1 mercury lamp, you may end up paying well over $500 as with tonic water you would end up paying less than $2 every 2 liter bottle. I would go with the tonic water because it removes the hassle, danger, and price of that of an Hg lamp. Due to the fact that they both can protect you from the same sickness, tonic water is the obvious choice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4297839691694588645.post-44737886611028061402010-01-27T17:02:10.427-08:002010-01-27T17:02:10.427-08:00Maria Belen Martinez

When Europeans began using the drug to treat the fevers associated with malaria, they discovered that it was highly effective against certain strains, and Jesuit missions soon began raking in money from their quinine-extracting operations. Through the 1930s, quinine was the only drug effective against malaria, until an assortment of antimalarials were developed to combat the disease. But, on the downside, it comes with too many side effects such as paralysis if injected into the nerve, abnormal heart rhythms, and sometimes, hearing impairment. It should be avoided with patients with conduction defects or heart blocks.<br />But, hey, if you wanna take the risk, go ahead.Pearl Igwehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14729772585818849293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4297839691694588645.post-65259819150207400582010-01-27T16:12:17.806-08:002010-01-27T16:12:17.806-08:00I wouldn't personally use a Hg lamp since the ...I wouldn't personally use a Hg lamp since the UV rays.

They can also harm us however, damaging our cells, and could eventually cause a person to develop skin cancer due to the UV light. But many bulbs that contain mercury have an outer coating to prevent the UV light to escape from the bulb, allowing only visible light to escape the bulb.<br /><br />Canada dry and other tonic waters contain Quinine, a ingredient that gives tonic water its bitter flavor.
