This article is focused on the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride as a local anaesthetic drug. A potentiometric method based on modified screen-printed and modified carbon paste ion-selective electrodes was described for the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride in different pharmaceutical preparations. It was based on potentiometric titration of lidocaine hydrochloride using modified ...

The usefulness of the Coloscreen VPI test kit in occult blood detection has been examined and compared with our current method. The results show the Coloscreen procedure to be a simple, sensitive method that is much less subject to vegetable peroxidase interference than are other available screening procedures.

Objective To examine the association between increased nuchal translucency thickness and major cardiac defects in chromosomally normal fetuses. Setting Tertiary referral unit for fetal medicine and fetal

FALL 2015 73 The recent explosion of content (such as movies, TV shows, sports, and others) available on television coupled with an increase use in mobile devices (that is, smartphones and tablets) has created significant interest in second-screen applications from both end users and content providers. Second screen applications are designed to run from mobile devices and to enhance the televis...

Second-screen viewing—the use of smartphones, tablets, and laptops while watching television—has increased dramatically in the last few years. Using multiple resource theory and threaded cognition theory, this study investigated the effects of second-screen viewing on cognitive load, factual recall and comprehension of news. Second, we examined the effects of relevant (i.e., looking up informat...

The use of projectors in various applications and environments has raised the need to adapt the displayed image to the viewing display environment. The displayed image under bright light may appear with washed colors and attenuated contrast. Similarly, the appearance of the displayed image may be affected by the reflectance and the geometry of the projection screen. Based on the model of the pe...

Here we discuss the remarkable role of the statistical memory effects in the human brain functioning at photosensitive epilepsy (PSE). We have analyzed three independent statistical memory quantifiers for the magnetoencephalographic (MEG) signals. These quantifiers reflect the dynamical characteristics of neuromagnetic brain responses to a flickering stimulus of different color combinations. Re...

The Moving Pictures Show is a contemporary Australian ‘silent’ film company that screens films produced in the period from 1912 to 1929, with a 9-piece orchestral accompaniment. This article explores the ways in which music is chosen for the show both to heighten the audience’s aesthetic experience of the film and to abide by historical practice. It also describes the ways in which improvisatio...
