How IR Thermometers Measure Temperature
The advent of low-cost handheld infrared (IR) thermometers has led to a proliferation of non-contact temperature measurement in the food, building, and lowtemperature processing industries. However, these instruments are not as simple to use as they first appear due to systematic effects that are present in almost all measurements. This technical guide provides information relating to the calib...
متن کاملImplications of Changes in Core Body Temperature
Dairy farmers and veterinarians have used body temperatures, most commonly rectal temperatures, to detect and manage febrile disease and changes in the state of cows (estrus and onset of calving) for many years. Mastitis, pneumonia, metritis, lameness, estrus, onset of parturition, heat stress, and subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA) are among the physiological conditions potentially correlated wi...
متن کاملDo fish growth rates correlate with PCB body burdens?
We evaluated whether growth rates of six fish species correlated with PCB concentrations in a moderately-to-heavily polluted freshwater ecosystem. Using a large dataset (n = 984 individuals), and after accounting for growth effects related to fish age, habitat, sex, and lipids, growth correlated significantly, but positively with lipid-corrected PCB concentrations for 4 of 6 species. Remaining ...
متن کاملThe validity of mass body temperature screening with ear thermometers in a warm thermal environment.
Identification of people who have a fever in public places during the occurrence of emerging infectious diseases is essential for controlling disease spread. The measurement of body temperature could identify infected persons. The environment affects body temperature, but little is known about the validity of measurements under different thermal environments. Therefore, the aim of this study wa...
متن کاملMeasuring Temperature with Infrared Tympanic Thermometers versus Oral, Axillary and Rectal Thermometers for Proper Patient Management
care in Canada. HTIS responses are based on a limited literature search and are not comprehensive, systematic reviews. The intent is to provide a list of sources and a summary of the best evidence on the topic that CADTH could identify using all reasonable efforts within the time allowed. HTIS responses should be considered along with other types of information and health care considerations. T...
