Abstract:

Background and Objective: Quality control is one of the most important components in order to improve quality assurance in laboratories during analytical steps. For this purpose, coefficient of variation plays an important role. Due to the fast improvement in technology, application of inferential statistics for the comparisons of laboratory techniques, including instrument and chemicals and fast replacement of them would be technically essential. Materials and Methods: In this research study, we tried to determine the precision of one auto-analyzer with refrigerator and the other one without such facility for the analysis of glucose, triglyceride and cholesterol in 30 successive days and compared the coefficient of variations that are an important factor for analytical precision. Results: Comparing the means of aimed groups by paired t-test with P=0.05 in measurement of glucose, triglyceride and cholesterol showed that there was no significant difference between the two instruments. In determination of glucose, triglyceride and cholesterol by auto-analyzer with refrigerator, CV% of these analytes was 1.3%, 1.4%, and 0.9% respectively. By the auto-analyzer without refrigerator, the CV% of those analytes was 1.5%, 2.5% and 1.11% respectively. Conclusion: There is reasonably higher precision for auto-analyzer with refrigerator than the other one.

a comparative study of the relationship between self-, peer-, and teacher-assessments in productive skills

تمایل به ارزیابی جایگزین و تعویض آن با آزمون سنتی مداد و کاغذ در سالهای اخیر افزایش یافته است. اکثر زبان آموزان در کلاس های زبان از نمره نهایی که استاد تعیین میکند ناراضی اند. این تحقیق جهت بررسی ارزیابی در کلاس های زبان انگلیسی به هدف رضایتمندی زبان آموزان از نمره هایشان انجام گرفته است که در آن نمرات ارائه شده توسط سه گروه ارزیاب (ارزیابی خود دانشجو، همسالان واستاد) در مهارت های تولید (تکل...

a frame semantic approach to the study of translating cultural scripts in salingers franny and zooey

the frame semantic theory is a nascent approach in the area of translation studies which goes beyond the linguistic barriers and helps us to incorporate cognitive and cultural factors to the study of translation. based on rojos analytical model (2002b), which centered in the frames or knowledge structures activated in the text, the present research explores the various translation problems that...

a comparative study of the theme of "marriage" in three victorian novelists: charles dickens, george eliot and thomas hardy

این تحقیق کوشیده است با انتخاب پنج رمان از میان آثار برگزیده، «چارلز دیکنز»، «جورج الیوت» و «توماس هاردی » و با رویکردی تطبیقی به بررسی درونمایه ی «ازدواج» در آثار این سه رمان نویس بزرگ دوره ی ویکتوریا بپردازد. فرضیه ی اولیه ی تحقیق این بوده است که چارلز دیکنز (1870- 1812) با زبانی شوخ و گزنده، جورج الیوت(1880- 1819) با نگاهی آموزشی–اندرزگونه و توماس هاردی(1928- 1840) با رویکردی تلخ وانتقادی به...
