Ineffectiveness

Several factors can alter the effective concentration of a preservative in food products or feed (Ricke, 2003). The spectrum of activity of some organic acids, in particular sodium lactate, is relatively narrow or may be specific to a certain group of organisms. This may pose a problem, as other mechanisms may take over after time (Lemay et al., 2002). Sodium benzoate or potassium sorbate are both chemical preservatives, approved for use in a wide range of foodstuffs, but have been shown to have only limited effect on E. coli 0157 H7 (Comes and Beelman, 2002). This observation is augmented by the fact that various microbiota can utilize organic acids as both carbon and energy sources (Van Immerseel et al., 2006).

These results would be interpreted as showing that water breakthrough has occurred earlier in layer B than in the other layers, which may give reason to shut off this layer (as discussed below). The lack of production from layer C may indicate ineffective perforation, in which case the interval may be re-perforated. The lack of production may be because layer C has a very low permeability, in which case little recovery would be expected from this layer. 

Companies have to face the problem of how to be maximize visible, that means how to get many visitors to a Website. Website marketing is a new field that needs to be understood before you invest in an Internet presence - to avoid ineffective and unnecessary expenditure. 

A film image is of course 2-dimensional and the bars are thus projected onto the film without knowledge of their depth from the surface. If the angle of projection is not perpendicular to the film then there may be considerable distortion of the projected images, as is often the case with concrete - typical object (reinforcing) film distances may be 150 mm. The problem can be solved by stereo-imaging but this is ineffective and expensive. 

Another application of laser-based profilometry is the inspection of rocket and missile components. The U.S. Air Force has funded work to develop a non-contact laser-based profilometer for the inside surface of solid rocket motors. Over time, these devices are subject to slumping and cracking, which could potentially render the rocket motor ineffective and hazardous. When fully implemented, this system will provide a meaningful screening method for evaluating the condition of aging rocket motors. 

In the mean field considerations above, we have assumed a perfectly flat interface such that the first tenn in the Hamiltonian (B3.6.21) is ineffective. In fact, however, fluctuations of the local interface position are important, and its consequences have been studied extensively [, 58]. 

Chemistry, like any scientific discipline, relies heavily on experimental observations, and therefore on data. Until a few years ago, the usual way to publish information on recent scientific developments was to release it in books or journals. In chemistry, the enormous increase in the number of compounds and the data concerning them resulted in increasingly ineffective data-handling, on the side of the producers as well as the users. One way out of this disaster is the electronic processing, by computer methods, of this huge amount of data available in chemistry. Compared with other scientific disciplines that only use text and numbers for data transfer, chemistry has an additional, special challenge molecules. The molecular species consist of atoms and bonds that hold them together. Moreover, compounds... 

The rates of nitration of mesitylene-a-sulphonate anion (iii) and iso-durene-a -sulphonate anion (iv) in mixtures of aqueous nitric and perchloric acid followed a zeroth-order rate law. Although the rate of exchange of oxygen could not be measured because of the presence of perchloric acid, these results again show that, under conditions most amenable to its existence and involvement, the nitric acidium ion is ineffective in nitration. 

The observation of nitration at a rate independent of the concentration and nature of the aromatic excludes AcONOa as the reactive species. The fact that zeroth-order rates in these solutions are so much faster than in solutions of nitric acid in inert organic solvents, and the fact that HNO3 and H2NO3+ are ineffective in nitration even when they are present in fairly lai e concentrations, excludes the operation of either of these species in solutions of acetyl nitrate in acetic anhydride. 

Chlorides are inert. However, the reaction ofp-chlorobenzophenone (9) with a styrene derivative proceeds satisfactorily at 150 C by u.sing dippb [l,4-bis(-diisopropylphosphino)butane] as a ligand to give the stilbene derivative 10. However, dippp [l,3-bis(diisopropylphosphino)propane] is an ineffective ligand[13]. On the other hand, the coupling of chlorobenzene with styrene proceeds in the presence of Zn under base-free conditions to afford the cis-stilbene 11 as a main product with evolution of H . As the ligand, dippp is... 

Hindered amines, such as 4-(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl) decanedioate, serve as radical scavengers and will protect thin Aims under conditions in which ultraviolet absorbers are ineffective. Metal salts of nickel, such as dibutyldithiocarbamate, are used in polyolefins to quench singlet oxygen or elecbonically excited states of other species in the polymer. Zinc salts function as peroxide decomposers. 

There is, in principle, no reason why linear combinations should not be made between AOs which have the correct symmetry but very different energies, such as the lx orbital on the oxygen atom and the lx orbital on the phosphorus atom. The result would be that the resonance integral /i (see Figure 7.12) would be extremely small so that the MOs would be virtually unchanged from the AOs and the linear combination would be ineffective. 

Oral adrninistration of vacciaes may be ineffective as many vacciaes are deactivated in the digestive tract of the animals the vacciaes are intended to protect. Dip treatment by which the vacciaes enter the animals through diffusion from the water are not generally as effective as injection but can be used to vaccinate large numbers of animals in short periods of time. 

Generally, soluble materials are more effective as micronutrient sources than are insoluble ones. For this reason, many soil minerals that contain the micronutrient elements are ineffective sources for plants. Some principal micronutrient sources and uses are summarized below. In this discussion the term frits refers to a fused, pulverized siUceous material manufactured and marketed commercially for incorporation in fertilizers. Chelates refers to metaHoorganic complexes specially prepared and marketed as especially soluble, highly assimilable sources of micronutrient elements (see CHELATING agents). 

Orthophosphate Hquid mixtures are ineffective as micronuttient carriers because of the formation of metal ammonium phosphates such as ZnNH PO. However, micronutrients are much more soluble in ammonium phosphate solutions in which a substantial proportion of the phosphoms is polyphosphate. The greater solubiHty results from the sequestering action of the polyphosphate. The amounts of Zn, Mn, Cu, and Fe soluble in base solution with 70% of its P as polyphosphate are 10 to 60 times their solubiHties in ammonium orthophosphate solution. When a mixture of several micronutrients is added to the same solution, the solubiHty of the individual metals is lowered significantly. In such mixtures the total micronuttient content should not exceed 3% and the storage time before precipitates appear may be much shorter than when only one micronuttient is present. 

Hydrogen fluoride, HP, when used alone is a comparatively ineffective exchange agent and replaces only active halogens (13), eg, acyl fluorides from acyl chlorides and ben2otrifluoride [98-08-8] from hen2otrich1 oride (eq. 12). 

Foam Control. Whereas some siUcones are known to be foam promoters, Dow Corning FS-1265 Fluid is a Hquid fluorosiUcone with effective antifoam properties. Petroleum industry appHcation of fluids and dispersions in gas—oil separators on offshore drilling platforms has been successful. Their use peaked in the early 1980s, coinciding with constrained cmde oil capacity and production. Diesel fuels are an excellent solvent for dimethyl silicones and render them ineffective as an antifoam. A new antifoam which does not require the use of added siUca is formulated from a fluorosiUcone copolymer. It has shown promise to antifoam (8) diesel fuel (see Defoamers). 

It is often important to quantify the contamination of pore fluid in the unsaturated soil 2one, where monitoring wells are ineffective. In this region, suction cup lysimeters are useful (7). These samplers consist of a porous cup, typically ceramic, having two access tubes which are usually Teflon. One access tube provides a pressure-vacuum, the other discharges the sampled fluid to the surface. The porous cup, typically between 2 and 5 cm in diameter, is attached to a PVC sample accumulation chamber. 

Natural Product hGH. In 1944 the preparation of a highly purified growth hormone from bovine pituitary glands was reported (37). Subsequendy, growth hormones derived from animal pituitaries were found to be ineffective in humans the existence of specificity among species for growth hormone was thus estabUshed. 

Computer Models, The actual residence time for waste destmction can be quite different from the superficial value calculated by dividing the chamber volume by the volumetric flow rate. The large activation energies for chemical reaction, and the sensitivity of reaction rates to oxidant concentration, mean that the presence of cold spots or oxidant deficient zones render such subvolumes ineffective. Poor flow patterns, ie, dead zones and bypassing, can also contribute to loss of effective volume. The tools of computational fluid dynamics (qv) are useful in assessing the extent to which the actual profiles of velocity, temperature, and oxidant concentration deviate from the ideal (40). 

Industrial antimicrobial agents are chemicals used to prevent the adverse consequences of microbiological activity in processes and products. Some are unique to this segment and others are drawn from the antimicrobial agents used in medicine, agriculture, and sanitary appHcations. Industrial antimicrobials are selected where process or stricdy physical conditions, such as irradiation or heat, are impractical or ineffective in controlling microbiological activity. 

When using a cation source in conjunction with a Friedel-Crafts acid the concentration of growing centers is most often difficult to measure and remains unknown. By the use of stable carbocation salts (for instance trityl and tropyhum hexachloroantimonate) the uncertainty of the concentration of initiating cations is eliminated. Due to the highly reproducible rates, stable carbocation salts have been used in kinetic studies. Their use, however, is limited to cationicaHy fairly reactive monomers (eg, A/-vinylcarbazole, -methoxystyrene, alkyl vinyl ethers) since they are too stable and therefore ineffective initiators of less reactive monomers, such as isobutylene, styrene, and dienes. 

Draperies. Draperies of light weight or open-weave fabrics are ineffective for sound-absorbing purposes. Heavy draperies, such as flannel and velour, can provide useful sound absorption if properly installed. For best results they should be hung with 100% fullness, ie, 2 nC for every nC of wall or window surface covered. The sound-absorbing properties also are affected by the amount of space between the draperies and the surface behind them. 

Vinpocetine (2), another dmg initially categorized as a cerebral vasodilator, is a member of the vinca alkaloid family of agents (7). However, interest in this compound as a potential dmg for learning and memory deficits comes from its abiUty to act as a neuronal protectant. This compound was evaluated in 15 patients with AD over a one-year period and was ineffective in improving cognitive deficits or slowing the rate of decline (8). However, in studies of patients with chronic vascular senile cerebral dysfunction (9) and organic psycho syndrome (10), vinpocetine showed beneficial results. 

Fmit and vegetable juices high in potassium have been recommended to correct hypokalemic alkalosis in patients on diuretic therapy. Apparendy the efficacy of this treatment is questionable. A possible reason for ineffectiveness is the low Ck content of most of these juices. Because Ck is high only in juices in which Na" is high, these have to be excluded (64).
