A Pd-based indicator displacement assay for the fluorimetric sensing of carbohydrates has been developed. The assay allows the detection of saccharides in the low millimolar concentration range in water at neutral pH.

The KT1000 and KT2000 knee joint arthrometers (MEDmetric Corp, San Diego, California) have been shown to overestimate the measurement of knee joint sagittal laxity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the accuracy of the KT arthrometers as measures of anterior and posterior linear displacement. The anterior and posterior linear displacements of 3 KT arthrometers (2 KT1000 arthrometers ...

background: centre of pressure displacement is an indicator of postural control. children with cerebral palsy have poor postural control. one common intervention to enhance their balance is vestibular stimulation. the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of vestibular stimulation on cop parameters in children with cerebral palsy (3-10 years old). methods: this study was a randomiz...

in this paper, the capabilities of displacement curvature derived from static response data for finding the location and severity of damage in euler-bernoulli beams are assessed. static response of a beam is obtained using the finite element modeling. in order to reduce the number of measured nodal displacements, the beam deflection is fitted through a polynomial function using a limited number...

A multicomponent indicator displacement assay (MIDA) based on an organometallic receptor and three dyes can be used for the identification and quantification of nucleotides in aqueous solution at neutral pH.

A cyclic peptide based receptor, bearing two dipicolylamino arms complexed to zinc(II) ions, binds pyrophosphate ions with high affinity and selectivity in aqueous solution as determined using an indicator displacement assay.

INTRODUCTION Alterations in gas displacement in pediatric patients ventilated with the SensorMedics 3100A high-frequency oscillator are most commonly manipulated by adjusting the amplitude, frequency, and percent inspiratory time. The piston-position-and-displacement indicator is commonly centered and subsequently not adjusted. That practice may limit the clinician's ability to optimize carbon ...
