Column selection remains the most important factor in successful enantiomeric separations. The CSPs most likely to be effective in SFC are those that have been employed under normal phase conditions in LC. In fact, the tremendous body of knowledge that has been accumulated for LC can also guide column selection in SFC [66]. The likelihood of success with a particular CSP can generally be gauged after one or two injections [67]. If no evidence of separation is observed, another CSP should be investigated. 

Educating the Patient and Family Nurses can do much to educate others on the importance of having their blood pressure checked at periodic intervals. This includes people of all ages because hypertension is not a disease seen only in older individuals. Once hypertension is detected, patient teaching becomes an important factor in successfully returning the blood pressure to normal or near normal levels. 

The quantity, quality and purity of the template DNA are important factors in successful PGR amplification. The PGR is an extremely sensitive method capable of detecting trace amounts of DNA in a crop or food sample, so PGR amplification is possible even if a very small quantity of DNA is isolated from the sample. DNA quality can be compromised in highly processed foods such as pastries, breakfast cereals, ready-to-eat meals or food additives owing to the DNA-degrading action of some manufacturing processes. DNA purity is a concern when substances that inhibit the PGR are present in the sample. For example, cocoa-containing foodstuffs contain high levels of plant secondary metabolites, which can lead to irreversible inhibition of the PGR. It is important that these substances are removed prior to PGR amplification. Extraction and purification protocols must be optimized for each type of sample.

Metal molds and cores are used in permanent mold casting. The process works best in continuous operation so that the mold temperature can be maintained within a fixed operating range. The operating temperature of the mold is one of the most important factors in successful permanent mold casting. Mold cavities are machined from solid blocks of graphite. Mold life is the major cost factor in permanent mold casting.

The ability to provide accurate and reliable data is central to the role of analytical chemists, not only in areas like the development and manufacture of drugs, food control or drinking water analysis, but also in the field of environmental chemistry, where there is an increasing need for certified laboratories (ISO 9000 standards). The quality of analytical data is a key factor in successfully identifying and monitoring contamination of environmental compartments. In this context, a large collection of methods applied to the routine analysis of prime environmental pollutants has been developed and validated, and adapted in nationally or internationally harmonised protocols (DIN, EPA). Information on method performance generally provides data on specificity, accuracy, precision (repeatability and reproducibility), limit of detection, sensitivity, applicability and practicability, as appropriate. 

In order to develop an ANN model for a refinery unit that is able to predict product yields and properties, one must first decide on the important inputs and outputs of the process. The choice of these inputs and outputs is the most important factor in successfully preparing an ANN model. These inputs and outputs must be chosen by carefully examining plant data. A good expertise in relation to the process is necessary. 

The most widely used mass spectrometric identification procedure is MALDI-Tof analysis of the entire peptide mixture. Gas-phase matrix interaction with peptide ions in MALDI-Tof results in singly charged ions, giving a mass profile that is highly characteristic of the protein from which the peptides are derived. These peptide masses (actually protonated peptide molecular ions, MH+) can be used to search databases (either protein or nucleic acid databases) to identify the proteins. The two most important factors in successfully identifying proteins by this approach are the number of matching peptide masses and the accuracy of the peptide mass determination.

Considering the data given above, indicates that the selection of a suitable sensitizer with appropriate triplet energy is one of the key factors in successfully carrying out photochemical ODPM rearrangements. 

Cysteine analyses showed a continuing trend of successful use of disulfide exchange reagents. Performic acid oxidation, although still successfully used, overall fared as well as the simple direct analyses of cystine. Direct cystine analysis of the pre-hydrolysate was as successful as that of the protein sample, suggesting that chromatography and derivatization and not hydrolysis are the most important factors in successful analysis of cystine by this simple methodology. 

Oil sampling is a critical factor in successful lubricant analysis. Errors in obtaining a representative sample can impair all further analytical efforts. There are two primary goals in obtaining a representative oil sample. The first is to sample in a way that the information density in the oil is maximized, which is often referred to as maximizing data density. The data could be particles from dust, moisture, additive levels, and wear debris. 

Another key factor in successful pilot plant and manufacturing plant operation is the appropriate use of subsurface addition of antisolvents and reactive reagents for crystallization and precipitation. The primary purpose of subsurface addition is the introduction of the agent causing supersaturation in the region of intense micromixing in the vessel to avoid local excess supersaturation with the associated potential for increased nucleation. 

Technique is the major factor in successfully extricating a pellet from the tube. Sometimes it is necessary to practice with a few samples. The nice part about cell culture is that there are numerous cells available to study. It is wise to set up several tubes to obtain a decent pellet to embed. Sometimes the cells are in short supply or conditions indicate more fortification is needed for the pellet to stick together. In these instances, after step 10, Subheading 12.3.2, an equal volume of 2% gelatin (warmed to liquid) is added to the pellet and the pellet is re-suspended. The sample is placed at -70°C to speed up gelatin solidification. The sample is then fixed as in step 11. This provides a matrix in which the cells will adhere. It can be easier to dislodge a more intact pellet this way.

What about the degree of competition in the Seventies All that we see tells us it will be very keen. Cost effectiveness will play a major role, as it does today, and the likelihood of continuing inflation will place an increasing demand on the chemical industry to supply products with a cost effectiveness which helps to offset inflation. Technical expertise will be an increasing factor in successful industrial chemical marketing. This technical expertise must exist at all levels—manufacturing, distribution, product application, technical service, and sales. 

The decisive factors in successful sulfonation of specific compounds are the nature of the sulfonating agent, reaction conditions such as acid concentration, temperature, and time of reaction, and the influence of the solvent.

Leadership is a key and critical factor in successfully implementing and deploying the risk assessment process. 

Furthermore, the key factor in successful HH cells (pot operations) is to predict and maintain MHD stability. This leads to the characterization of the internal MHD flow using Navier-Stokes equation of motion and Maxwell s equations, including of charge distribution, Faraday s law of induction. Ohm s law, Lorentz force law, Pcasson s equation, and even LaHace s equation. The set of these laws and equations constitute the MHD expressions. 

Equations 7.26 and 7.28 contain two transport coefficients h, the heat transfer coefficient, and Cd, the aerodynamic drag coefficient. Determining the proper values of these coefficients turns out to be a significant factor in successful modeling of the process. The simulation results are sensitive to these coefficients, and their measurement is difficult. Transport coefficients can be expected to depend on the Reynolds number of the air stream adjacent to the filament.
