Consequences definition

It is first necessary to clarify terminology in this field. The terms action, effect and Junction of a hormone are often used indiscriminately. Since there are no clear-cut definitions, this can be confusing. Consequently, definitions, even if only operational, are put forward here and are used throughout this chapter. 

For non-SI traceable quantities the strategy for introducing traceability has to be different. This concerns a large number of analytes for which no defined molecular structure can be assigned, such as for many enzymes, proteo-homones, tumor markers and cardiac markers. The first and most important step must be the definition of the quantity before it is possible to establish reference systems (reference procedures, materials and reference network laboratories). Whenever possible, a global consensus on the definition of the measurand should be achieved. Consequently, definition of the measurand and establishment of reference systems is the objective of several working groups and committees of the Scientific Division of IFCC. 

The anterior choroidal artery is mostly detectable only on source images, not on MIP of a TOF-MRA (Wiesmann et al. 2001), because of its very small size. Consequently, definite statements about pathology can not be made. 

We have already seen in chapter 5 the importance of angular momenta in diatomic molecules. We now consider the various ways in which these angular momenta can be coupled in diatomic molecules, giving rise to Hund s coupling cases [57], As we will see many times elsewhere in this book, Hund s coupling cases are idealised situations which help us to understand the pattern of rotational levels and the resulting spectra. They are also central to the theory underlying the quantitative analysis of spectra and the consequent definition and determination of molecular parameters. 

Realizations of the potentials of hazards have various occurrence probabilities, and severities of consequences. Definitions of probability and severity can be tailored to suit particular needs.

It is strictly for convenience that certain conventions have been adopted in the choice of a standard-state fugacity. These conventions, in turn, result from two important considerations (a) the necessity for an unambiguous thermodynamic treatment of noncondensable components in liquid solutions, and (b) the relation between activity coefficients given by the Gibbs-Duhem equation. The first of these considerations leads to a normalization for activity coefficients for nonoondensable components which is different from that used for condensable components, and the second leads to the definition and use of adjusted or pressure-independent activity coefficients. These considerations and their consequences are discussed in the following paragraphs. 

Let us consider the consequence of mechanics for the ensemble density. As in subsection A2.2.2.1. let D/Dt represent differentiation along the trajectory in F space. By definition,... 

The second integral in Eq. (155) seemed to be singular when n + / + q = 0. However, in this case, (i must be zero, and consequently this term will never contribute to the final result for being suppressed by the prefactor. With the definition in Eq. (132), we can write... 

Glycine itself is almost neutral, and requires very little sodium hydroxide to give a pink colour with phenolphthalein some other amino-acids, e.g., glutamic acid, aspartic acid, etc., are definitely more acidic and consequently require more alkali for this purpose cf. footnote, p. 380). 

Proof. This assertion is a consequence of the norm definition given in Section 1.4.2. Indeed, we can write... 

The structure of the section is as follows. In Section 2.8.2 we give necessary definitions and construct a Borel measure n which describes the work of the interaction forces, i.e. for a set A c F dr, the value /a(A) characterizes the forces at the set A. The next step is a proof of smoothness of the solution provided the exterior data are regular. In particular, we prove that horizontal displacements W belong to in a neighbourhood of the crack faces. Consequently, the components of the strain and stress tensors belong to the space In this case the measure n is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. This confirms the existence of a locally integrable function q called a density of the measure n such that... 

Types of Solid Wastes The term solid wastes is aU-inchisive and encompasses all sources, types of classifications, compositions, and properties. As a basis for subsequent discussions, it will be helpful to define the various types of solid wastes that are generated. It is important to note that the definitions of solid-waste terms and the classifications vary greatly in prac tice and in literature. Consequently, the use of published data requires considerable care, judgment, and common sense. The following definitions are intended to serve as a guide. 

A second problem concerns delimiting the mechanisms of action which should be included in the definition, to exclude effects which are a secondary consequence of overt toxicity in other body systems. For example, disruption to the endocrine system caused by general metabolic disturbance, such as in severe liver damage, should not be grounds for calling a chemical an ED. 

The reasons (i.e., the motivations, concerns, activators, and needs) for considering the use of QRA define the requirements for information. The next question is, can QRA supply the appropriate information to satisfy the need By definition, QRA studies generate numerical estimates of the expected frequency and/or consequence(s) of undesired events. The results of the QRA can be formulated and used on two bases (1) an absolute basis and (2) a relative basis. 

Thermal changes resulting from solute interactions with the two phases are definitely second-order effects and, consequently, their theoretical treatment is more complex in nature. Thermal effects need to be considered, however, because heat changes can influence the peak shape, particularly in preparative chromatography, and the consequent temperature changes can also be explored for detection purposes.
