A quantitative method for determining spatial discriminative capacity
BACKGROUND The traditional two-point discrimination (TPD) test, a widely used tactile spatial acuity measure, has been criticized as being imprecise because it is based on subjective criteria and involves a number of non-spatial cues. The results of a recent study showed that as two stimuli were delivered simultaneously, vibrotactile amplitude discrimination became worse when the two stimuli we...
متن کاملA Quantitative Method of Determining Urinary Phenols.
‘IT0STUDY PROTEIN METABOLISM with special reference to tyrosine as well as to study the deranged metabolism of aromatic compounds in phenylketonuria and similar disorders, quantitative determination of urinary phenols is desirable. Volterra (1) measured three phenolic fractions in the urine by distillation. Phenols have been measured quantitatively after ethyl acetate extraction by Bray and Tho...
متن کاملQuantitative Method for Determining a Representative Algal Sample Count'
A method for determining a representative count of a sample dependent on number of species is presented for application to various algal communities. Constant species curves are calculated as ejiciencj = (number of individuals number of species)/nurnber of individuals and diagrammed on a plot of eficiencj versus number of individuals counted. Eficiencj is deJined as the probability that a new s...
متن کاملA quantitative method for determining the bacterial contamination of dishes.
The three methods currently used for determining the extent of bacterial contamination on eating and drinking utensils, dairy equipment, and so forth, are thoroughly described in Standard Methods for the Examination of Dairy Products (American Public Health Association, 1948). They are known as the Rinse, Plate Contact, and Swab Contact Methods. In studies on dishwashing, the authors desired to...
متن کاملA quantitative method for determining the robustness of complex networks
Most current studies estimate the invulnerability of complex networks using a qualitative method that analyzes the decay rate of network performance. This method results in confusion over the invulnerability of various types of complex networks. By normalizing network performance and defining a baseline, this paper defines the invulnerability index as the integral of the normalized network perf...
