Seven Advantages of Vitamin C

Vitamin C has significant advantages over others and is very helpful to cure disease and to keep body healthy.

The Advantages of Vitamin C are:

1. Vitamin C in skin protection
Vitamin C protects the skin from free radicals which can be generated during exposure of sunlight. The antioxidant present in Vitamin C protects the body skin from harmful ultraviolet radiation during sunlight exposure.
2. Vitamin C to loose fat
One of the most significant advantages of Vitamin C is it reduces body fat , vitamin C obtained from fruits are very useful to loose body fat. Doctors says that As Vitamin C lowers the insulin so instead of storing sugars into body and converting into body fat , it uses it as a fuel to reduce fat in the body.
3. Vitamin C in hair loss
Vitamin C keeps free radical away which may generate during food intake. The antioxidant property of Vitamin C removes free radical which may cause damage to hair by making it rough, brittle etc and ultimately prevents hair loss.
4. Vitamin C in common cold
Vitamin C controls the common cold and reduces the severity of the symptoms which are caused by the common cold. Vitamin C also controls the allergy caused by cold.
5. Vitamin C dilates blood vessels
Vitamin C also ensure the proper dilation of the blood vessels and keeps a body free diseases such as atherosclerosis, chest pain, high cholesterol, heart pain etc.
6. Vitamin C in healing wounds
Vitamin C helps to heal wounds, It replaces the tissue which are damage and improves healing property, If Vitamin C deficiency is observed then wound will heal slowly
7. Vitamin C makes skin Beautiful
There are tiny blood vessels in the skin which contains oxygen and nutrients, Vitamin C provides enough oxygen and nutrition and keeps the skin healthy and beautiful

Because of the Vitamin C, many disease can be prevented by eating citrus fruits and vegetables, apart from discussed points it has various other applications which keeps body healthy and beautiful.

Principle of FTIR Spectroscopy

Basic principle of FTIR Spectroscopy are as follows:-

• FTIR spectroscopy is used to identify the functional group which is present in certain molecules.
• FTIR is one of the widely used method which is also know as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy.
• In this method of infrared spectroscopy , radiation (Infra red) is passed through the sample.
• Some of the radiation is absorbed by the sample while some of the radiation is transmitted.
• Now spectrum which is produced , represents molecular transmission and molecular absorption creating molecular fingerprint of a sample.
• The fingerprint region is unique for also samples, no two samples have same fingerprint region.
• The fingerprint region shows different absorption peaks with different vibration frequency between bonds of an atoms in the sample.
• Hence with this property unique molecule can be identified.

Advantages and Disadvantages of FTIR Spectroscopy

Advantages of FTIR are:-

• FTIR stands for Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy is highly sensitive and quick method to achieve high quality spectrum.
• This spectroscopy gives better signal to noise ratio compared to the dispersive instrument.
• With FTIR, spectrum can be obtained very quickly and saves time.
• Gases, solids as well as liquid can be analysed with FTIR.
• By using FTIR no external calibration is required and gives accurate results.
• FTIR is non-destructive technique.
• Organic compounds and Inorganic compounds can be identified easily using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
• Mechanical breakdown is less compared to other instruments because the mirror which is attached in the interferometer is the only moving part in FTIR.
• Simultaneous analysis can be done for multiple gaseous compounds.
• FTIR can identify even small concentrations of contaminants.
• FTIR has a laser beam which keeps the FTIR instrument accurately calibrated.
• It generally completes a scans within 1 to 2 seconds.
• High resolution.

As we all know that pollution is as unwanted material or something which is added to the environment which causes harmful effect on human beings, animals or all living organism. There are five different types of air pollution which are classified and listed below.

Five different varieties or types of air pollution are as follows:

1. Industrial air pollution which may arise from thermal power plants, food industry, pesticides, fertilizers and pharmaceutical industry. Due to cement, steel, paper or sugar industry. Air also pollutes due to textile related industries or due to atomic units.
2. Transportation causes pollution in which vehicles liberates smoke and pollutes surroundings, it may due to all forms of terrestrial transport, urban transport or due to other modes of transport.
3. Accidental air pollution which may arise due to fires in forests, by accidents of petroleum carrying vehicles or may be due to leakage or a blast in certain industries.
4. Smog formation, pollution may arise, in which smoke from different industries released in to the environment and then mixes with the fog present in air which is known as Smog.
5. Pollution by Green house effect in which several important gases are released and combine with air, which rises upward and combine with the atmosphere and return back to the earth and destroy crops, human lives, animals ,plants and livestock etc.
