For the accurate analysis of possible interactive effects of chemicals in a defined mixture, statistical designs are necessary to develop clear and manageable experiments. For instance, factorial designs have been successfully used to detect two-factor interactions. Particularly useful for this purpose are fractionated factorial designs, requiring only a fraction of all possible combinations of...

1. In poultry investigations, the main interest is often to study the effects of many factors simultaneously. Two or three level factorial designs are the most commonly used for this type of investigation. However, it is often too costly to perform when number of factors increase. So a fractional factorial design, which is a subset or a fraction of a full factorial design, is an alternative. Th...

a chromium electroplating bath with the ability to produce homogenous mist was used to evaluate parameters influencing hexavalent chromium (cr+6) mist sampling methods. the results of 48 cr+6mist samples collected using the u.s. national institute for occupational safety and health method 7600showed that cr+6concentration was higher: (1) for sampling by closed-face filter cassettes than for sam...

The process of single-point incremental forming (SPIF) is a relatively new technology that primarily used in the production prototypes and small quantities products. However, has several limitations with respect to quality characteristics its This study examined effects four parameters—namely, tool diameter, feed rate, step size, sheet thickness—on final product. A total 15 product responses we...

Pramipexole is the mostly prescribed drug in patients with Parkinson disease. The incidence of Parkinson disease is related to aging and mostly developed in elderly people with difficulty in swallowing or dysphagia. In the current study we aimed to develop an orally fast disintegrating tablet (ODT) of pramipexole as a preferable alternative in geriatric patients. Hence, the fast disintegration ...
