An Eye Opener

A frequently observed sin is that measurements are performed absentmind-edly, that is, strictly according to SOP, but with all critical senses turned off. [Pg.311]

Drug B is about 3% low relative to A, and both are about a further 1-2% low relative to the nominal content (if the amount of drug in a tablet is a small fraction of the total tablet weight, the slightest loss of drug to absorption on walls or in the air filters shows up in low assays). [Pg.312]

One assay falls out of trend by about 4% this could be a laboratory error (see Section 4.32) that, by chance, does not generate an OOS result and so goes undetected. This out-of-trend (OOT) result could [Pg.312]


To prepare for teaching, Carothers was ordered to enroll at his own expense in summer school at the University of Chicago. The experience was an eye-opener and contributed to Carothers disenchantment with Tarkio. [Pg.111]

Personal Brand and Portfolio In times past, keeping an eye open for future job opportunity largely meant keeping you re resume updated, and back then, when opportunity knocked, it came in the form of a promotion with your current employer or a job offer from a large company in a similar line of work. In a world of limited work at the core and increased free agency, the wise entrepreneurial engineer needs to take more proactive steps to de velop his or her personal brand, and a key tool toward doing this is the maintenance of a professional portfolio. [Pg.170]

This is a Danish documentary from 2001 about the dangers of chemical substances in our environment and the impact that they have on us and our (unborn) children. This documentary must certainly have been an eye opener for many people and must have led to changes in people s behavior. [Pg.180]

He encouraged the use of isopropyl acetate (b.p. 89°C) instead of ethyl acetate (b.p. 77°C) because of its reduced water solubility and greater stability to hydrolysis. He preceded the phase transfer catalysis era using detergents to speed reaction rates and increase yields. His bag of tricks, as he would whimsically refer to his armory of techniques, was an eye opener for his more conventional disciples. [Pg.17]

Just when you think everything is going very well, try an audit. Audits are required by the PSM Standard and the first audit can be an eye opener. Check work order logs and engineering projects logs to see if some types of activities are slipping by the MOC procedure. Also emphasize complete authorizations prior to the introduction of highly hazardous chemicals into the area. [Pg.258]

Classe J. Pupillary dilation an eye-opening problem.) Am Optom Assoc 1992 63 733-740. [Pg.79]

A short walk from the L train in Chicago s Lakeview district lies Chicago s premier vegan restaurant. Amitabul, which means awakening in Buddhist Sanskrit, is indeed an eye-opener in the middle of meat-loving Chi-town. [Pg.121]

A country location makes any surveillance very obvious and keeps chemical smells out of the way of nosy neighbors. Electricity and running water are absolutely necessary. Now he loads the chemicals onto Joe s wheels and heads for the laboratory in a very roundabout manner, keeping an eye open for any tail and paying close attention to the scanner. He leaves the scanner at the lab for entertainment in the long hours ahead. [Pg.24]

There is one point where it may be worthwhile to keeping an eye open for the alchemistic style of nuclear reactions catalyzed by trace quantities of WIMP (weakly interacting massive particles) such as a negatively charged X with an atomic weight [52-54] somewhere between 100 and 10. Our major chance of observing such species in stars is the isotopic shift factor of all wave-numbers... [Pg.214]

I took the knowledge I learned at Coca-Cola and applied it to pharmaceuticals. I started on the inside of my pharmaceutical company as a Telemarketer. I sold pharmaceutical products over the phone for one year. I built strong relationships with management and made them aware that I was looking forward to being promoted to an Outside Pharmaceutical Representative. Every week I kept an eye open for outside sales positions and after one year of hard work and sales success, I was promoted to outside sales. [Pg.4]

In 1988, a World Hydrogen Energy Conference was held in Moscow. It turned out to be an eye opener for many Western visitors. Soviet scientists presented 75 papers, about half of the total. Hydrogen R D appears to be a serious effort in the Soviet Union, observed Alexander Stuart, president of Canada s Electrolyser Corporation and one of the key figures of the international hydrogen energy scene. It seems to enjoy a high level of attention. ... [Pg.138]

Percent of Nothing An Eye-Opening Tour Through the Twists and Turns of Math Abuse and Innumeracy by A. K. Dewdney, a professor of mathematics, which was published in 1993 and 1996. [Pg.56]

In 1988, an eye-opening article appeared in the literature. It was to change the course of drug discovery and development. A study of the fate of development compounds between 1964 and 1985 from the then 7 UK-owned pharmaceutical companies, showed that a poor pharmacokinetic profile (including poor bioavailability) was the single biggest factor in development attrition. This contributed almost 40% of all development failures (Figure 13.1). [Pg.346]

I am always amazed at the results. It is an eye-opening experience for people as they realize how much can easily be assumed. [Pg.152]

A more direct approach is to calculate the electronic energy for both the ground state and the final state. For an oxidation reaction this becomes the same as calculating the ionization potential (IP) and vice versa for a reduction reaction it becomes the electron affinity (EA). This is an important observation as the field of computational chemistry is wide and there are benefits to make from keeping an eye open for the development of assessing these generic properties - even when they are not specifically devoted to electrochemistry. [Pg.409]

Lewis Thomas (321) pictures the immune system as a police force, constantly patrolling the body cells, keeping an eye open for cells becoming neoplastic and, upon recognition, destroying them. For such a system to work, cancer cells must display a surface antigen for "recognition different from their nonneoplastic compatriots. [Pg.600]
