An infusion of octreotide is infusing at 12mL/hr. The infusion bag contains 2mg octreotide in 250mL 0.9% NS. Calculate the mcg/min

0.625mcg/min

Explanation:

2 mg = 2000mcg

So, 250 ml contains 2000mcg of octreotide.

1 ml of NS contains 8 mcg of octreotide.

2000mcg/250ml= 8mcg/ml

Octreotide is infusing at 12ml/hr.

So, 12 ml of Ns contains 96mcg of octreotide.

12ml/8mcg/ml=96mcg

Octreotide is infusing at 12ml/hr.

So, 12 ml of Ns contains 96mcg of octreotide.

60mins/96mcg/hr= 0.625mcg/min

ysosomes are membrane-bound vesicles that contain digestive enzymes, such as glycosidases, proteases and sulfatases. lysosomal enzymes are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (er), are transported to the golgi apparatus, and are tagged for lysosomes by the addition of mannose-6-phosphate label.
