A routine utilization review of our assay of high-density-lipoprotemn (HDL) cholesterol with a centrifugal analyzer (1) indicated that efficiency might be improved by an alternative HDL cholesterol method requiring less dedicated technologist time. The relatively few requests, coupled with our physicians’ expectation for turnaround, dictated that we could not use the centrifugal analyzer method...

In the title compound, NH(4) (+)·(C(2)H(5)O)(2)PS(2) (-), the ammonium cation is connected by four charge-assisted N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds to four tetra-hedral O,O'-diethyl dithio-phosphate anions, forming layers parallel to (100). The polar and non-polar constituents of the layers are stacked alternately along [100]. Inter-lacing of the external ethyl groups through van der Waals inter-actions co...

The first footwear was not made to any specifications, and shoes of men women once were very similar, while looks, designs, materials varied with the changes social status or classes. change sneakers are highly related evolution materials, as well sports itself. New technologies have increased performance sneakers. Those who knowledgeable about predict that future will be self-lacing

T !ie importance of hospitals learning from tlieir failures hardly needs to be stated. Not only are matters of life and death at stake on a daily basis, but also an increasing number of U.S. hospitals are operating in the red.' Organizational learning is thus an imperative. Recent research suggests there are plenty of problems, errors, and other learning opportunities lacing these complex servi...

Background. The double haul is a unique feature of single-handed fly casting and is used in both fly fishing and fly casting competition. The movement behaviour during the double haul has not been investigated in previous research. Objectives. Describe the coordination of the rod and line hauling movements during distance fly casting. Methods. Elite fly casters performed distance castin...

On the largest scales, matter is strung out on an intricate pattern known as the cosmic web. The tendrils of this web should reach right into our own cosmic backyard, lacing the Galactic halo with lumps of dark matter. The search for these lumps, lit up by stars that formed within them, is a major astronomical endeavor, although it has failed to find the huge expected population. Is this a dark...

In the title compound, C(9)H(20)N(2)S, the n-butyl groups are in syn and anti positions in relation to the C=S bond. In the crystal, two mol-ecules are connected by two N-H⋯S=C hydrogen bonds into a centrosymmetric dimer. Another N-H⋯S=C hydrogen bond links the dimers, forming layers with a hydro-philic inter-ior and a hydro-phobic exterior, which spread across the (100) plane. Inter-lacing of ...

A rectangular rod is placed in a flow field flowing parallel to a flat plate. Effect of chord-thickness ratio of rectangular rod on developing vortex shedding downstream to the rod is studied. Then, for each one of the aspect ratios, the distance of the rod from the neighboring flat plate is reduced until the rod sticks to the flat plate. In each case, the effect of the flat plate boundary laye...

and the chairs are well sepai ated so as to admit of the free circulation of the patients who have been selected to illustrate the lecture : lacing a window are a few chairs in which are seated the patients who are too ill to walk about, or whose eyes must not be handled freely. Dr. Haab's assistants stand by such cases to demonstrate them to the students as they circulate past. Professor Haab ...
