A SIMPLE METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE EQUIVALENT WEIGHT OF SODIUM

A simple method for the determination of serum cholesterol

A simple method for determining serum copper.

The determination of serum copper is of value in a number of metabolic studies, particularly in the investigation of the anemia of chronic infection. Presented here, together with illustrative data, is a method for determining copper in serum, based on the direct extraction of copper carbamate from serum with isoamyl alcohol. Burch et aa. in their method for serum iron have demonstrated that su...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

A Simple Method of Determining Pre-Diabetes

A simple formula for determining pre-diabetes (the very early stage of diabetes mellitus) was derived from the model of Ackerman et al. [Bull Math Biophys 1965; 27: s21-37] for very smoothly varying time course patterns of blood glucose level. The natural period of blood glucose level in a healthy subject calculated using the formula was in good agreement with the value obtained by computer work.
