Alcohol vapour and the Normac analyser

Adaptation of a cold vapour mercury analyser to flow injection analysis

Minor modifications to a Coleman MAS-50A Mercury Analyser System allowed the determination of mercury by flow injection analysis. Using sample volumes of 600 mul it was possible to analyse up to 120 samples per hour, with a detection limit of 0.2 mug. l(-1) (120 pg) of mercury. The authors also report on a simple digestion procedure which replaces the time- and reagent-consuming EPA procedure, ...

Effect of alcohol on the kinetics of mandelic acid excretion in volunteers exposed to styrene vapour.

The effect of a dose of alcohol on the kinetics of mandelic acid excretion in four volunteers exposed to 220 mg/m3 styrene has been investigated under controlled exposure chamber conditions. Ethanol inhibited the excretion of mandelic acid, so that the peak excretion was delayed from the end of the exposure period until three hours afterwards. One hour after administration of ethanol blood mand...

the relationship between learners critical thinking ability and their performance in the reading sections of the tofel and ielts test

the study reflected in this thesis aims at finding out relationships between critical thinking (ct), and the reading sections of tofel and ielts tests. the study tries to find any relationships between the ct ability of students and their performance on reading tests of tofel and academic ielts. however, no research has ever been conducted to investigate the relationship between ct and the read...

The CL-Atse Protocol Analyser

This paper presents an overview of the CL-Atse tool, an efficient and versatile automatic analyser for the security of cryptographic protocols. CL-Atse takes as input a protocol specified as a set of rewriting rules (IF format, produced by the AVISPA compiler), and uses rewriting and constraint solving techniques to model all reachable states of the participants and decide if an attack exists w...
