High precision alignment procedure for an ellipsometer.
Beam deviation in the polarizing elements is identified as a significant source of error in existing ellipsometer alignment procedures. A high precision alignment procedure that eliminates these errors is described. This procedure is less time consuming than previous methods, and its accuracy is comparable to the limit of resolution of the ellipsometer (typically 0.01-0.005 degrees ). A further...
متن کاملDietary preparation and per cent fat measurement by hydrostatic weighing.
To examine if the dietary preparation for hydrostatic weighing (HW) alters the % fat measurement, seven men and three women (age 29 +/- 6, Males 11.7 +/- 7.3% fat and Females 24.1 +/- 5.4% fat, mean +/- SD) were assessed before and after three meals. On separate days and in random order, each subject (1) ate a salad with toppings (600 g) with small beverage, (2) ate two bean burritos and one be...
متن کاملComparison of air displacement plethysmography to hydrostatic weighing for estimating total body density in children
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the accuracy of total body density and percent body fat (% fat) using air displacement plethysmography (ADP) and hydrostatic weighing (HW) in children. METHODS Sixty-six male and female subjects (40 males: 12.4 +/- 1.3 yrs, 47.4 +/- 14.8 kg, 155.4 +/- 11.9 cm, 19.3 +/- 4.1 kg/m2; 26 females: 12.0 +/- 1.9 yrs, 41.4 +/- 7.7 kg, 152.1 +/- 8.9 c...

متن کاملNonlinearity of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol determinations is matrix dependent.
The majority of methods for determining high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol failed the 1991 College of American Pathologists (CAP) linearity survey (sets LN2-A, B, C). We hypothesized that they failed because of the survey material matrix. We evaluated linearity with dextran sulfate or phosphotungstate as the precipitating reagents for several methods: Ektachem; TDx; Sigma; Dimension; Co...
