Disregarding for a moment the bright and dark bands that decorate the spectrum of a heavenly body at specific wavelengths, the overall hue of that spectrum can tell us the surface temperature of the object. A blue star is thus hotter than a yellow one, and a yellow star is hotter than a red one. The Sun is hotter at the surface than the red star Antares, which in turn stands as a torrid desert before the brown dwarfs or interstellar clouds. The stars go red with cold. 

These nebulas are similar in some respects to the Hll regions. The difference is that here the source of ionisation is an ageing star (white dwarf) in its death throes rather than a strapping young blue star. The fluorescent region is both denser and chemically more complex for it includes those atoms expelled from the envelope of the dying star in the form of a stellar wind. 

The transport systems of the inner mitochondrial membrane use various mechanisms. Metabolites or ions can be transported alone (uniport, U), together with a second substance (symport, S), or in exchange for another molecule (antiport. A). Active transport—i. e., transport coupled to ATP hydrolysis—does not play an important role in mitochondria. The driving force is usually the proton gradient across the inner membrane (blue star) or the general membrane potential (red star see p. 126). 

The difficulty in producing a good blue flame stems from several important considerations. Firstly, impurities in the chemicals present in the firework tend to produce yellow flames, which detract from the blue secondly, coloured flames follow similar physico-chemical phenomena but operate in different regions of the spectrum. Consequently the copper salts (that are normally utihsed for the production of blue stars) decompose thermally to produce a variety of emissions that radiate from about 325 to 660 nm i.e. from green, blue and violet to orange-red) simultaneously polluting the pure blue flame which appears in the 400 to 455 nm region.

The wavelengths in bold type indicate the strong emission lines of a blue star. 

Table 8.4 lists the main emission bands and lines for the blue star described above while Figure 8.10 shows the associated radiant spectrum where the band spectrum in the 435-526 nm region (due to CuCl) is particularly prominent. 

Figure 8.10 illustrates the radiant spectrum for an improved blue star. 

The BR-test has been modified several times (37, 38). One of its versions, known as the BR-test AS, contains antifolates that make it possible to detect sulfones and sulfonamides in addition to the usual inhibitory substances. Another version, which is called BR-test Blue Star, has been officially accepted and used in Canada. By decreasing the spore concentration in the detection medium, a sensitivity of less than 40 ng sulfamethazine/ml milk is possible with this test (38).

The reaction was stopped by adding 25 pi EDTA and 25 pi TCA (trichloroacetic acid). The reaction mixture was then spotted on ionic paper (DEAE paper). The paper was washed three times with TCA and then with ethyl alcohol. The filter paper was air dried and put into a scintillation vial with a scintillation cocktail. Radioactivity was measured by a liquid scintillation counter (Blue Star). As a counting control, a blank silver composition was run through the complete procedure without viral load, to check any potential interference in the scintillation counter method.
