This data article provides the weights, specific gravities and chemical compositions (moisture, protein, fat, ash, and carbohydrate) of potato tubers, for food processing use, from the Tokachi, Kamikawa and Abashiri areas of Hokkaido, Japan. Potato tubers of four cultivars ('Toyoshiro', 'Kitahime', 'Snowden' and 'Poroshiri') were employed in the current study. The weights and specific gravities...

T SHOULD BE POSSIBLE to separate cells of different types by utilizing differences in their specific gravities. Centrifugation of whole blood against high density fluids has been successful, at least in part, in separating leucocytes from peripheral blood.15 Gum acacia3 and bovine albumin1’2’5 have been used in this manner, but the method has been criticized because of the cost and labor involv...

the present study was conducted to estimate correlations among performance and egg quality traits in iranian native fowl. data were collected from 21,679 birdsat the isfahan native fowl breeding center to derive genetic parameters for performance traits and egg quality traits were measured on eggs of 1,020 birds. genetic correlations of performance and egg quality traits were estimated with a b...

Biomass estimation is critical for looking at ecosystem processes and as a measure of stand yield. The density-integral approach allows for coincident estimation of stem profile and biomass. The algebraic difference approach (ADA) permits the derivation of dynamic or nonstatic functions. In this study we applied the ADA to develop a self-referencing specific gravity function and biomass functio...

The urinary excretion rate is calculated based on short-term, defined time sample collections with a known sample mass, and this measurement can be used to remove the variability in urine concentrations due to urine dilution. Adjustment to the urinary excretion rate of hippuric acid was evaluated in 31 healthy volunteers (14 males and 17 females). Urine was collected as short-term or spot sampl...

Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) are composed of glass, plastic, non-ferrous metal, ferrous metal, paper, plastic, rubber, and so on. In order to separate glass and plastic among CFLs components, air separation unit is applied using the difference in specific gravity. Since specific gravities of glass, plastic, non-ferrous metals, rubber, etc. were widely spread, it can be separated by the diff...

One of the most remarkable basis of the gravity data inversion is the recognition of sharp boundaries between an ore body and its host rocks during the interpretation step. Therefore, in this work, it is attempted to develop an inversion approach to determine a 3D density distribution that produces a given gravity anomaly. The subsurface model consists of a 3D rectangular prisms of known sizes ...

We describe an immunoassay of digoxin that exploits the differential sedimentation rate between two types of latex particles in a microcentrifugal analyzer. Conventional polystyrene latex particles (relative density = 1.05), sensitized with antibody, are first suspended with the sample and then mixed with digoxin-sensitized latex particles (relative density = 1.5). In the absence of digoxin in ...
