The two major forms of calcium are calcium carbonate and calcium citrate. Calcium supplements are intended to be consumed with a meal, and when taken as directed, the two forms of calcium are absorbed at roughly the same rate. However, when taken on an empty stomach, the body has a much easier time absorbing calcium in its citrate form vs. its carbonate form. Calcium lactate and calcium stearate are two alternative forms of calcium. Calcium lactate is expected to have similar effects as calcium citrate.
PHYSICAL FACTORS THAT AFFECT MICROBIAL GROWTH. TEMPERATURE. Generally,an increase in temperature will increase enzyme activity. But if temperatures get too high, enzyme activity will diminish and the protein (the enzyme) will denature. On the other hand, lowering temperature will decrease enzyme activity. At freezing temperatures enzyme activity can stop. Repeated cycles of freezing and thawing can denature proteins.
Temperature-A measure of the intensity of heat. Plant growth occurs in a fairly narrow range - 60 - 100 degrees F 1. Temperature directly affects photosynthesis respiration transpiration-loss of water absorption of water and nutrients 2. The rate of these processes increases with an increase in temperature.
