LABORATORY MALTING EQUIPMENT

Standardization of laboratory equipment.

Diagnostic equipment outside the laboratory.

A questionnaire was circulated to clinical biochemistry laboratories in the North West Thames region of the United Kingdom requesting information on extralaboratory equipment. Data on the types and numbers of instruments in use, their relationship with the laboratory, and quality assurance procedures were obtained. Laboratories were prepared to maintain equipment over which they had no responsi...

Lunar astrobiology: a review and suggested laboratory equipment.

In October of 2005, the European Space Agency (ESA) and Alcatel Alenia Spazio released a "call to academia for innovative concepts and technologies for lunar exploration." In recent years, interest in lunar exploration has increased in numerous space programs around the globe, and the purpose of our study, in response to the ESA call, was to draw on the expertise of researchers and university s...

Respiratory protective equipment reduces occurrence of sensitization to laboratory animals.

BACKGROUND Respiratory protective equipment (RPE) has been shown to reduce exposure to laboratory animal allergens, but there are no studies that have examined its effect on the development of sensitization. AIMS To examine the effect of RPE on the risk of sensitization to laboratory animals. METHODS Survey of UK laboratory animal workers conducted between 1999 and 2001. Information was rec...

Development and Application of Laboratory X-ray Fluorescence Holography Equipment

The X-ray fluorescence holography (XFH) method has drawn the attention of many researchers as a novel experimental technique for imaging a three-dimensional local atomic structure around a certain element in a single crystal. Synchrotron radiation (SR) has been mainly used for the measurements because of extremely weak signals which are about 0.3 % of isotropic fluorescent radiation. The measur...
