Divider regulators

Colorants. According to U.S. regulations, colorants are divided into two classes certified and exempt (see Colorants for foods, drugs, COSMETICS, AND MEDICAL DEVICES). Batch samples of certified colors must be sent to the FDA for analysis and confirmation that the colorants comply with estabhshed specifications. Color manufacturers pay a small fee for each batch of color that is analy2ed. The number of certified colors available to food technologists has declined. Several of the historical colorants were found to have carcinogenic effects. Table 1 shows the certified colors that are permissible for food use in the United States as of 1993. 

Einely divided zirconium is classified as a flammable soHd and shipping regulations are prescribed accordingly (103). Metal powder finer than 74 ]lni (270 mesh) is limited to 2.26 kg per individual container. 

If the feed flows countercurrent to the air, as is the case when drying granulated sugar, exhaust temperature does not respond to variations in product moisture. For these diyers, product moisture can better be regulated by controlhng its temperature at the point of discharge. Conveyor-type diyers are usually divided into a number of zones, each separately heated with recirculation of air which raises its wet-bulb temperature. Only the last two zones may require indexing of exhaust-air temperature as a function of AT... 

The eenter node of the resistor divider beeomes a eurrent summing node where a portion of the total sense eurrent eomes from eaeh of the sensed output voltages. The higher power output, and usually the output that requires a tighter output regulation, require the majority of sense eurrent. The lighter loaded... 

A small percentage of the population may be sensitive to a number of chemicals in indoor air, each of which may occur at very low concentrations. The existence of this condition, which is known as multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS), is a matter of considerable controversy. MCS is not currently recognized by the major medical organizations. Medical opinion is divided, and further research is needed. The applicability of access for the disabled and worker s compensation regulations to... 

EPA must first make determinations about which contaminants to regulate. These determinations are based on health risks and the likelihood that the contaminant occurs in public water systems at levels of concern. The National Drinking Water Contaminant Candidate List (CCL), published March 2, 1998, lists contaminants that (1) are not already regulated under SDWA (2) may have adverse health effects (3) are known or anticipated to occur in public water systems and (4) may require regulations under SDWA. Contaminants on the CCL are divided into priorities for regulation, health research and occurrence data collection. 

Noise from a compressor plant arises at different sources, and each source has its own pattern of sound pressure levels. Noise levels can be divided into two groups, the low-frequency pulsating air intake sound and the higher-frequency machine noise from compressor, prime mover and fans. Local statutory regulations on noise levels should be determined, and action taken by the supplier to ensure that the noise levels do not exceed those stipulated. 

The part of the vertebrate nervous system that regulates involuntary action, such as the intestines, heart and glands it is divided into the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. 

The Controlled Substances Act of 1970 regulates die manufacture, distribution, and dispensing of drugs that have abuse potential (see information under Federal Drag Legislation and Enforcement in diis chapter). Drag under the Controlled Substances Act are divided into five schedules, based on their potential for abuse and physical and psychological dependence Display 1-2 describes the five schedules. 

Nonmuscle/smooth muscle myosins-Il are structurally similar to striated muscle myosin-II, but they have slower rates of ATP hydrolysis than do their striated muscle counterparts. Nonmuscle/smooth muscle myosin-II is also regulated differently than striated muscle myosin-II. Nonmuscle myosin-II is divided into the invertebrate and vertebrate branches (Cheney et al., 1993). This group is ubiquitous because it is present in most lower organisms, such as slime molds, amoeba, sea urchins, etc., and in virtually all mammalian nonmuscle cells. Smooth muscle myosin-II is also somewhat heterogeneous in that at least three separate forms of smooth muscle heavy chains, with molecular weights of 196,000, 200,000, and 204,000 have been identified (Kawamoto and Adelstein, 1987). The physiological properties of these separate myosin heavy chains are not yet known.
