Rapid measurement of soil water by gravimetric method

A new method for determination of frothability of frothers by using water recovery measurement

A new method was introduced for frothing characterization of flotation frothers. Method uses water recovery to develop a new frothability index named water recovery index (WRI). New index was determined for some commercial frothers and results were compared with dynamic frothability index (DFI). Results showed that water recovery index values follow the order of A-65 13016 s/mol > DF-250 6292.4...

Gravimetric Determination of Soil Organic Matter

Studies were carried out to evaluate a gravimetric method for the determination of soil organic matter by the mass loss at 300C. The gravimetric method was compared with Walkley-Black, using several brazilian soils with variable chemical and physical properties. Gravimetric method was positively correlated with Walkley-Black method with the following linear regression equation: y = 3.72x + 0.29...

Measurement of Leaf Water Potential by the Dye Method

The dye method for measuring leaf water potential is simple, inexpensive, and suitable for both laboratory and field work. Leaves are immersed in a graded series of solutions, and the solution which neither gains nor loses water is assumed to have a water potential equal to that of the leaf. Although limited by certain inherent errors, the dye method can be used to measure relative values and c...

Thermal dye double indicator dilution measurement of lung water in man: comparison with gravimetric measurements.

The thermal dye double indicator dilution technique for estimating lung water was compared with gravimetric analyses in nine human subjects who were organ donors. As observed in animal studies, the thermal dye measurement of extravascular thermal volume (EVTV) consistently overestimated gravimetric extravascular lung water (EVLW), the mean (SEM) difference being 3.43 (0.59) ml/kg. In eight of t...
