Developer test

In new developments, test separators may be substituted by multiphase metering devices which can quantitatively measure volumes of oil, gas and water without the need of separation. This technology is under development. 

One of the greatest tasks in providing compendial standards is to obtain, adapt, or develop test methods for determining compliance with the standards. Such methods must be capable of routine use in many laboratories by different personnel and equipment. There is a vast difference between a method that can be used in one laboratory by speciaHsts and one that can be used in many laboratories by generaHsts to determine whether chemicals pass or fail the estabHshed specifications. Additionally, the deterrninations must be reHable, because the results obtained may determine whether a product is safe or legal. 

Flammability. The results of small-scale laboratory tests of plastic foams have been recognized as not predictive of their tme behavior in other fire situations (205). Work aimed at developing tests to evaluate the performance of plastic foams in actual fire situations continues. All plastic foams are combustible, some burning more readily than others when exposed to fire. Some additives (131,135), when added in small quantities to the polymer, markedly improve the behavior of the foam in the presence of small fire sources. Plastic foams must be used properly following the manufacturers recommendations and any appHcable regulations. 

In 1903 an American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Committee on Road and Paving Materials was formed to develop test methods and specifications for highway materials. Test methods for volatilization, penetration, and bitumen were developed by the Office of PubHc Roads and were... 

The complexes on surface of chelate-functionalized silica often include ligands available in solution in the coordination sphere. Use of a chromophore reagent as a ligand leads to the formation of colored mixed ligand complexes (MLC). The phenomena can be used as a basis for developing test-systems for visual determination of microquantities of inorganic cations in water. 

Many different types of models may be produced to aid product development, test theories, experiment with solutions, etc. However, when the design is complete, prototype models representative in all their physical and functional characteristics to the production models may need to be produced. When building prototypes, the same materials, locations, subcontractors, tooling, and processes should be used as will be used in actual production so as to minimize the variation (see also clause 4.4.8.3). 

By now your PSM system has been developed, tested, and fine-tuned, and you have planned and scheduled its installation. Once more, it s time to sell. This time around, selling PSM should be easier— you have a tangible "product," with specific benefits. You tdso—Abased on the test pilot—should have some satisfied customers. 

The U.S. Department ofEnergy develops test procedures for efficiency measurements and sets minimum efficiency standards for furnaces, boilers, and water heaters. Information on energy efficiency of buildings and equipment is available from the DOE. 

The process engineer also develops tests and interprets data and information from the research pilot plant. He aids in scaling-up the research qpe flow cycle to one of commercial feasibility. 

Newer fabrics, not in common use but in development, test, and field trials, are described for higher temperature applications by Reference [50]. Application to 400°F—2100°F are potentially available using ceramic fibers Nextel 312 , laminated membrane of expanded PTFE on a substrate, polyimid fiber P-84, Ryton polyphenylene sulfide, and woven fiberglass. The heat and acid resistance of these new materials...

The Institute for Research and Technical Assistance (IRTA) identifies, develops, tests and demonstrates safer alternatives in cleaning applications, dry cleaning, paint stripping, coatings, adhesives and lubricants. 

Tswett s initial column liquid chromatography method was developed, tested, and applied in two parallel modes, liquid-solid adsorption and liquid-liquid partition. Adsorption ehromatography, based on a purely physical principle of adsorption, eonsiderably outperformed its partition counterpart with mechanically coated stationary phases to become the most important liquid chromatographic method. This remains true today in thin-layer chromatography (TLC), for which silica gel is by far the major stationary phase. In column chromatography, however, reversed-phase liquid ehromatography using chemically bonded stationary phases is the most popular method. 

Established in 1894, AOAC International is an independent association of scientists and organizations in the public and private sectors devoted to promoting methods validation and quality measurements in the analytical sciences. AOAC has a mission to ensure the development, testing, validation, and publication of reliable chemical and biological methods of analysis for foods, drugs, feed-stuffs, fertilizers, pesticides, water, forensic materials and other substances affecting public health and safety and the environment. 

Software producers must fulfill the requirements for development, testing, and documentation. When the user is confident that these requirements have been met, and the system functions adequately to fulfill his or her needs, the user must perform validation prior to placing the software in service. An analytical laboratory is an example of an end-user that conducts testing prior to software/computer system installation. 

Develop policy-supporting SOPs on computer systems. These may include development, testing, maintenance and support, quality assurance, change control, source code management, system retirement, retrospective evaluation, evaluation of vendor-supplied systems, etc.

An examination of the published literature does not suggest that this problem is extensive, although there are some reports [20] of high intrasubject variability. There is no reason to doubt that statisticians are well able to develop tests that could be used to quantify intrasubject variability [9,20-24]. However, the question as to how serious or widespread this problem may be in clinical practice is still in need of reliable data. In clinical use it is possible that for many, if not all drugs, intrapatient variability may well be more a function of patient compliances, variations in diet, use of other... 

As noted in Chapter 1, the priorities in batch processes are often quite different from those in large-scale continuous processes. Particularly when manufacturing specialty chemicals, the shortest time possible to get a new product to market is often the biggest priority (accepting that the product must meet the specifications and regulations demanded and the process must meet the required safety and environmental standards). This is particularly true if the product is protected by patent. The period over which the product is protected by patent must be exploited to its full. This means that product development, testing, pilot plant work, process design and construction should be fast tracked and carried out as much as possible in parallel.
