AIM To evaluate the reliability of dipstick measurements of urine specific gravity (U-SG). METHODS Fresh urine specimens were tested for urine pH and osmolality (U-pH, U-Osm) by a pH meter and an ...

Hunting for (alpha,n) reactions: The experimental set-up in the ISAC-II hall at TRIUMF. (Courtesy: M Williams) New measurements by physicists from the University of Surrey in the UK have shed fresh ...

The IEEE Audio and Electroacoustics Group therefore formed a Subcommittee on Subjective Measurements, which has been charged with writing a Recommended Practice for speech quality measurement. The ...

That pattern represents film thickness, surface irregularities, and refractive index changes. X-ray measurements: XRD (diffraction) measures epitaxial thickness and composition, while XRR ...

To find out if the pollution you are seeing in the satellite image is on the ground, that is nearest to the surface you need to compare ground measurements to the satellite measurements. This can be ...

Abstract: Despite the magnetometer in a magnetic and inertial measurement unit (MIMU) being used to estimate the azimuth, its measurements can also negatively affect the computation of inclination ...

Imperial measurements are a system of measure. Today, in the UK, we more commonly use metric measures; however, we still use some imperial measures. There are many different imperial measurements ...

These catalysts are selected to enable fair and generally understood comparisons against conventional measurements of polymerization kinetics. It is important to properly calibrate the measurement ...

"We could determine the mass of the Himalayas using atoms." Scientists are developing an advanced quantum sensor for low Earth orbit that can detect the tiniest tremors in Earth's gravity. These ...
