Inhibitory properties of a swab transport device.
A recent switch to a less expensive swab transport product initiated by our purchasing department provided a reference point for this report. Copan swabs (Copan Diagnostics, Inc., Corona, Calif.) were replaced by Starswab swabs (Starplex Scientific, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada). Both products employ a sponge saturated with liquid Stuart’s medium. The Starplex product appeared visually to vary in...
متن کاملEvaluation of swab transport systems against a published standard.
BACKGROUND Before the publication of the M40-A standard by the United States National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS), no quality control data for swab transport systems (STSs) had been available. AIMS To compare three commercially available STSs against the published standard to ascertain bacterial survival after a set holding time. METHOD Charcoal and non-charcoal cont...
متن کاملTransport Properties of Refrigerant Mixtures: Thermal Conductivity
In the present work, the integral equations method is used to calculate transport properties of polar fluids. For this goal, we use the Stockmayer potential and examine theoretically the thermal conductivity of several refrigerant mixtures such as R125+R134a, R125+R32, R125+R152a, R134a+R32, R152a+R32, R134a+R143a, and R125+R143a. We solve numerically the Ornstein-Zernike (OZ) equation usin...
متن کاملthe significance of conjunction as a cohesive device in teaching writing
the research questions were as follows: 1. is there any relationship between the students concious awareness of the form and implications of the conjuncations and their improvement in using appropriate conjunctions? 2. does students knowledge of the from and the implications of the conjunctions help them to produce more coherent writings. 3. does a comparison between english conjunctions and th...
15 صفحه اولcontrol of the optical properties of nanoparticles by laser fields
در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
