Determination of LAGEOS Spin Motion from Photometric Observation

Further observation of the immunologic determination for human luteinizing hormone.

1) Extracting 24hrs. urine by the kaolin-acetone method, immunologic and biologic assays were performed simultaneously for comparative study of luteinizing hormone (LH). Continuous daily measurements in normally menstruating women found the LH peak on time of ovulation; and an approximate agreement was observed between the immunologic and biologic assay. 2) When measuring LH by the hemagglutina...

MACHO Mass Determination Based on Space Telescope Observation

We investigate the possibility of lens mass determination for a caustic crossing microlensing event based on a space telescope observation. We demonstrate that the parallax due to the orbital motion of a space telescope causes a periodic fluctuation of the light curve, from which the lens distance can be derived. Since the proper motion of the lens relative to the source is also measurable for ...

Physical features observation: is it repeatable in zygosity determination of Chinese adult twins?

This study reports on the inter- and intrarater reliability of physical features observation. Study subjects were 176 Chinese adult persons, consisting of 89 males and 87 females. Three trained research assistants responded simultaneously and respectively to 12 items regarding the subject's physical features including 'hair', 'Mongoloid folds', left and right 'ear lobes', 'earwax', 'nostril sha...

Direct microscopic observation and viability determination of Campylobacter jejuni on chicken skin.

A method was developed to determine the survival of Campylobacter jejuni at specific sites on chicken skin, and this method was used to observe the survival of C. jejuni at various locations on the skin during storage. This method uses confocal scanning laser microscopy to visualize C. jejuni transformed with P(c)gfp plasmid (GFP-Campylobacter) and stained with 5-cyano-2,3-ditolyl tetrazolium c...
